Jackal (Mother), Gentoo (Father), Citrine (Ex-Fiancé) (deceased)

### Affiliations

Tribe of Tulfand (past), Jade Mountain Academy, Copper Winglet

## Appearance

A bit bulky and heavy set, Moraine isn’t a push over... literally. She isn’t very muscular, she just has thicker bones. Moraine is a bit tall for her age, but it’s not very obvious. Her scales are never polished and often have small bits of sand or dirt on them. Moraine’s expression is usually blank, but she holds herself up well and often has good posture.

## Personality

Moraine is a bit socially awkward and keeps to herself. She hardly talks except when talked to. Once you warm up to her, she is willing to talk, but is still fairly reserved. Despite her introverted and reserved personality, she is very confident and proud of herself. While she doesn’t like having a lot of attention on her (it causes her to get fidgety and nervous), she isn’t afraid to speak her mind. Moraine tries her hardest to be compassionate and kind, but can come across as cold and harsh. Moraine hates that she is indecisive, but in the end, she usually is.

## Relationships

### Family

Jackal- Moraine was never particularly close to either of her parents, but she did have a bit of a bond with her mother. Moraine views her parents as dragons who taught her morals and what was right and wrong, nothing more. Morie's main take away from what her mother taught her was to value tradition above all else. Her family wasn't the affectionate type, resulting in Moraine's reserved and no touching personality.

Gentoo- Moraine hardly spoke to her father. They didn't dislike each other, but didn't like each other either. Moraine respects Gentoo, but wouldn't exactly call him a friend. She views him as a protector in her life when she was too young to protect herself. If she were to pass him by on the street, she would treat him like any other stranger.

Citrine- Moraine loves Citrine more than anyone else. She was a childhood friend, one shred of joy in her dull and dark dragonethood. After the fire Moraine set, she mourned over her deceased partner for years.

### Religion

Imperious- Wasteland and her god’s relationship is complicated to say the least. He found her when she was very young and has always watched over her. Imperious frequently punished her for not doing what he wants and is very manipulative towards her. Wasteland struggles to leave him though since he had always been there with her and was the closest thing to a real parent that she had. A part of her wants to hate him, to leave him, to forget about how he was hurt her. While the other part wants to run away from her new friends and just be alone and worship Imperious, going back to her past life. The main thing holding her back is her biggest fear, being alone. In the end, she just wants to do what is right, and if that means leaving her closest companion, then she’ll do so.

Silverwashed- Wasteland wants to talk to Silverwashed more, to learn more about her religion. Though she is scared about the consequences. She wants to talk to him again eventually, but is ready to wait a bit longer.

Members of Tribe of Tulfand- She is weary to meet the others, but is willing to give them a chance. After all, after she proclaims her lack of religious faith, what could be the harm in just learning more about Imperious? Besides, if she is a good dragon, why can’t they be? Or at least that is what she is telling herself.

### Allies

Fennec- Wasteland thinks of Fennec as her closet friend and she hopes Fennec feels the same. Land goes to Fennec whenever she needs help and confides in the SandWing. Towards the beginning of their friendship, Wasteland had lied saying she had a crush on Fennec, when really she was trying to cover up the fact that Fennec reminded her of Citrine. Fennec along with a couple others were the first to learn of Wasteland’s religion and were the ones who comforted her. In the end, Wasteland respects Fennec dearly, and is terrified to loose her like so many others.

Cardinal- Land and Cardinal’s relationship have had some ups and downs, but is mainly positive. Wasteland is very close to Cardinal and has confessed to him many of times. She doesn’t feel the same mutual bond that her and Fennec have, but Land is trying her hardest to build up their relationship. The main thing holding her back in getting too close to too many dragons.

Juniper- Wasteland was at first a bit cautious around Juniper, not comfortable around the blind SilkWing. Land has had to go out of her comfort zone to communicate with Juniper, not being able to rely on body language to avoid talking. In the end, though, Wasteland has warmed up to Juniper and thinks of her as a friend.

Quail- Wasteland has mainly positive opinions on the huggy MudWing. While not the closest of friends, Wasteland thinks of Quail as an ally and trusts her. Wasteland worries about Quail when she is gone, but doesn’t try to burden herself too much. Land hopes to slowly learn to trust Quail more.

Prophet- Wasteland thinks of Prophet as an ally, but maybe not a friend quite yet. She enjoys Prophet’s company, but hasn’t been around him long enough to truly trust him. She is willing to give him a chance, though in the future.

Monsoon- Wasteland doesn’t know much about Monsoon. They interacted some towards the start of the school year, but not much afterwards. Wasteland is cautious around the other hybrid, but is willing to be optimistic.

Rattlesnake- Wasteland’s favorite teacher is by far, Rattlesnake. He was the first teacher Wasteland met and out of all the staff, he’s the one she trusts the most. Land wishes she could spend more time with him, but with all her winglet’s chaos, she hasn’t had time.

Aura- Wasteland’s anti-royalty view point originally made her have a strong hatred to Aura, especially when Fennec was tasked as her body guard. After some time and close call situations, she has leaned to have a little bit of respect. She still doesn’t trust the royal, but Wasteland isn’t hostile towards her.
