Moonwake

*Note: Moonwake uses any pronouns. However, for your sanity, I will defer to using he/him pronouns for him.*

Moonwake, also known as Wake, is a thin, dark blue-gray NightWing with dark green eyes. He is currently aligned with the hunted.

## Description

Wake is a long, thin dark blue-gray dragon with darker blue accents lining his back and around his eyes. He has dark gray horns and spikes, and a light gray belly. His eyes are a dark green, and he has white constellation markings dotting his wings and scales. He wears a few earrings and a horn ring, as well as a few pouches. There are red-tinted teardrops near his eyes.

## Personality

Wake is an interesting dragon. First and foremost, he's rather independent and introverted. While he will be helpful and a team player occasionally, it's only when it is absolutely necessary- and he doesn't really talk to other often, so it's not like it matters. But despite Wake being what most would refer to as "a loner", he can actually be quite a loyal dragon if he finds someone he respects or befriends.

Wake is highly intelligent and analytical; he pretty much always views things from a cynical perspective, and therefore struggles to render the emotions of other dragons, making him come off as cold or unfeeling. Which is true on some level; sure, he isn't them most empathetic dragon, but he can still look at someone who is crying over the death of their best friend and realize they are grieving and should most likely be comforted.

## Biography

### Pre-Roleplay

Wake was born at an unknown time before the roleplay in the Night Kingdom, to a SeaWing and a NightWing. He was born on a blood moon, which gifted him the ability to transmit thoughts into other dragon's heads. Dragons took notice of this very fast, and he quickly began training to maximize his ability's potential. Many NightWings, most notably the nobles, started to use his ability to send messages to others; advisors, generals, even the king and queen. Soon, Wake got tired of being used for his ability all the time, and one night he fled the Night Kingdom in hopes of reaching the Sand Kingdom.

The king and queen didn't like this, however. They sent out dragons to capture Wake and bring him back, so he set fires to distract them while he made his escape. He safely made it to a remote town on the edge of the Sand Kingdom where he lived for a few years, stealing and selling things to survive.

One day, when Wake was closing up his shop, some strange, armored dragons arrived at his stall. When he tried to greet him, they only replied with a statement indicating that a bounty had been place on his head and that he was to be brought in. Wake immediately escaped and the dragons chased him down, resulting in an eruption of chaos in the town square that ended with Wake flying off with a few scratches and a small blade lodged in his thigh. Wake escaped to the woods and quickly rested, realizing that he would have to live away from any large settlements if he were to survive without being found. So, Wake flew on the edges of kingdoms for a few months in search of a place to stay permanently, while hunters tracked him down and occasionally spotted him.

### The Hunters and The Hunted Roleplay [1]

Wake first appeared wandering through the forest, looking for a place to stay. After a bit of walking, he spotted Collaris sitting on a boulder, to which he quickly hid. When Collaris called out to him, asking who he was, Wake stayed silent in hopes that she would ignore him. However, this only annoyed Collaris more, and Wake decided to step out from his hiding spot and face her. Suddenly, Shard stumbled into the area, which caused Collaris to remark something sarcastic about them. They soon got into a small conversation, which gave Wake enough time to sneak away to go eat.

Wake sat beneath a weeping willow and ate an elk that he caught, thinking about how the woods were less safe than he originally thought. When he finished the elk, Wake kicked it to the side and took off in search of a safe place he could hide out in for a while. While Wake was flying, he spotted Agonia fall out of a tree. Confused, Wake decided to investigate, landing in a tree and watching what happened next from above. As he watched, Rot-throat entered the area to check on what had happened. After investigating, Rot-throat soon ran away, causing Wake to become curious and follow her. Wake continued to follow Rot-throat for a while, before suddenly tripping on a branch and falling. Agonia, who had been tailing Wake, saw this and walked over, greeting him. Wake, extremely wary of the new dragon, stood up and stepped away from her.

Wake and Agonia proceeded to have a short talk, before Wake decided it was time to leave. He turned around and froze when he found Rot-throat had been slowly creeping up on him the entire time. He quickly leapt away, and the three stared at each other for a bit before Rot-throat collapsed out of exhaustion. Agonia went over to check on her and the two started to talk as Wake tried to fly away. Rot-throat and Agonia noticed this, however, and Wake stopped, knowing that he wouldn't be able to make it far without the two chasing after him.

The three dragons had a small talk, in which Wake didn't speak much as he was suspicious of the other two dragons. Eventually, though, he sat down and began to relax. Immediately after that, however, he was attacked and pinned down by Frost. As Wake struggled to break free, both Rot-throat and Agonia fled the area. Frost soon took off with Wake, and he started to flap his wings wildly in hopes of knocking him off balance, this proved to do nothing, however, as Frost used his tail to slap Wake's stomach, knocking all of the wind out of him, and rendering him weak and almost unable to do anything.

After a few more failed attempts to escape, the two soon landed in the hunter's camp, when Frost tried to drag Wake into the prison. Wake, in hopes of stopping him, dug his talons securely into the ground and attempted to kick Frost off of him. As Frost continued to drag him towards the prison, Wake lunged at him, knocking him onto his back. Frost quickly delivered a large kick to Wake, which almost threw him off of the large hunter.

After the fight, Wake was overpowered and quickly thrown into an empty cell by Frost. He paced around the cell while trying to come up with a plan, before he was stopped by Moonseeker. Moonseeker introduced herself, and Wake did the same, leading to the two having a conversation about their pasts and why they were imprisoned. As they talked, Wake asked Moonseeker about how the patrolling system worked, hoping to get important information to aide in his escape.

## Relationships

### Rot-throat

Wake first met Rot-throat when he saw that she was sneaking up on him, causing him to become very surprised and annoyed. They later had a small chat, and Wake noticed that Rot-throat was very quiet and skittish, calling her out on her elongated periods of silence. When Wake was ambushed by Frost, Rot-throat immediately fled the scene, causing Wake to become angry for her lack of help.

### Agonia

Wake first saw Agonia when she fell from a tree, causing him to become interested and inspect it further. They then later met, causing a quick conversation in which Wake had been very wary of Agonia. When Wake was captured, Agonia made no move to help him, causing his opinion of her to worsen further.

### Frost

Frost is extremely hostile towards Wake, attacking him on sight and capturing him. They didn't have a very good relationship to begin with, with Wake being a hunted and being one of the targets of Frost and the other hunters.
