StarWings

## Rules

Ask Frostdropd on their wall before creating high-ranking/royalty/hybrids/special dragons.
This includes members of the royal guard, high advisors, and high-ranking military or government officers.

This means every position below General. You do not have to ask for lieutenants/healers/soldiers.

If you ask for a hybrid please give a detailed description of their abilities. This is to make sure they're not overpowered.
Normal StarWings are open to make.
Normal StarWings have whorls of purple, black and blue scales scattered with silver and/or gold scales, like a galaxy. Gold and silver StarWings are special; they require permission.

A user can create ONE Eclipse Scale or Blood Scale without Frostdropd's permission. Every Eclipse Scale a user wants to have after that must be approved by Frosty.
If your Eclipse Scale or Blood Scale is overpowered, Frosty reserves the right to inform you and see it changed.

## Summary

StarWings are a NightWing mutation that evolved to live in the clouds. On there wings they have a special constellation that no other dragon has. Their main defense is a razor-sharp tail blade and scales they can puff up that are capable of shredding steel. These scales are practically indestructible, although there spine is unprotected and vulnerable, so they are trained to protect it. The StarWings are able to walk on clouds because of the fact that they are very light with hollow bones and light wings, and the fact that they can trap air bubbles in the scales beneath their toes, although the fact that there entire tribe was enchanted awhile ago by an animus may have to do with this.

They are normally very tall, with aristocratic looking bones and posture. They have razor-sharp scales that come in any cool colors whorled together scattered with small silver or gold scales like a galaxy. They have long straight or wavy horns that are very strong and light. They have a spiny ride along their back much like a Hivewings, which can be folded along their back. They also have a frill along the base of their neck. On their wings are a specific constellation that matches the constellation that was out when their egg was laid.

StarWing culture revolves around the stars, and they worship them as if they could come to life before their very eyes. This includes large "star festivals" where the entire tribe dresses in garments that look like the stars and fly as high as they can, the ones who can breath gold starfire trailing it along the sky. They also believe in reincarnation, similar to the SkyWings, as they leave the body out on a tall spire to fly to the stars, and come back down as a new dragon. If a dragonet is born with the same constellation as one who passed away, it is believed that they are the reincarnation of that dragon. They keep a record book of every dragon who has passed away in order to keep track of the reincarnation cycle. It is also believed that the more jewelry they wear, the more wealthy the dragon. (There tribe symbol is a moonstone.)

## Description

### Coloration

Usually dark colors such as navy blue, deep red, and black all whorled together resembling a galaxy. If hatched under a lunar eclipse (1 in 10,000 chance), they have entirely gold scales with a scattering of silver scales. If hatched under a solar eclipse (also very rarely) they have entirely silver scales with a scattering of gold scales. And VERY VERY rarely, they will be hatched under a bloodmoon and have a scattering of red scales instead of silver or gold scales.

### Build

Very tall, and larger than your average Skywing, but not as burly as a MudWing.
They normally have a regal aura, and tend to look down their snout at other tribes.
Long, straight, or wavy horns
Frills down their neck
Large tail blades and spikes along their spine

### Hybrids

All StarWing hybrids:

* Have at least SOME constellation scales
* Cannot have NightWing hybrids
* Unable to have IceWing hybrids
* Cannot have tribrids
* Cannot be animus
* Dark eye colors
* Light or hollow bones in their wings

## Abilities and Weaknesses

### Abilities +

They have the ability to puff up their razor sharp scales, capable of shredding steel, as well as the spikes along their back. If their egg is laid at night, they have the ability to breath silver starfire that makes anything it touches burst into flames and turn to ash. If they are (more rarely) laid under the sun, then they have the ability to breathe golden starfire, which heals anything living that it touches. Dragonets hatched under a blood moon can use their own blood as ink and cast spells on a scroll (inspired by Darkstalker's scroll). Unfortunately, the spells wear off in three days. At night, if their constellation is out and shining bright, the constellation on their wings as well as all over will glow and the dragon will obtain enhanced senses and strengths, although on normal nights the wing constellations do not glow. When their constellations are glowing they are very hot to the touch, like firescales.

### Fighting techniques

StarWings tend to bristle their scales before going into battle in order to ward off enemies. Their main attack is a dive at the enemy from the sky and jabbing them at the base of their spine to temporarily (or if the enemy is hit hard enough) permanently paralyze the enemy. After paralyzing them them the StarWing will go for the throat and drag the enemy to the ground, finishing them off with a spear to the heart with their tail blade. Although the StarWings are further divided in the military.

### Hunting techniques

StarWings tend to hunt in the sky, feasting on hawks and other birds. First they fly higher than the clouds, looking for the silhouette of their prey before dropping down from the sky and spearing them with their tail. When fishing, they do essentially the same, fly high over the water, looking for the silhouette of the fish, before dropping down from the sky and spearing them with their tails.

### Weaknesses -

They rely heavily on their tail as a weapon, if their tail is disabled they are very weak.
Some don't have a breath weapon.
Very soft skin at the base of their neck that is easy to pierce. Weaker in the day than at night
