## appearance

## personality

serpenrine is determined yet shy, she is a pacifist since she was raised by her sapwing mother while her father was "taking care of things in the ice kingdom"

## backstory

serpentine was hatched in the poison jungle, only knowing her mother for the first 2 years of her life, but she knew her father-a bold silkwing in the jewel hive crysalis-was "out in the ice kingdom, doing some things." and she never heard from him, until one day when he came to announce the move to the ice kingdom, by then serpentine'd found something-a someone. maybe-that could be dangerous, or could help her, it was a small, inconspicuous and un-suspicious carving of a leafwing, made of jade with strikingly brilliant amber eyes, it seemed a regular piece of treasure at first, but it's eyes sometimes flickered with an odd light even when there wasn't anything to make it, well, not naturally, that is, whenever she held it as it flickered she heard a strange, otherworldly voice echo from all directions, or maybe even from her very talons, she sometimes replays the moment she found it in her mind, sometimes because she was questioning her first immpression, sometimes just to giggle-snort at a younger, more socially akward version of herself

*a* *young serpentine glided gracefully through the trees of the poison jungle, far out of reach of the other leafwings, her small size and 4 wings made her more agile and better at getting to the more...remote places in the poison jungle, suddenly a glimmer of pale green caught her eye, she turned to see a small jade carving of a leafwing with small amber beads for eyes, it looked like a simple treasure that'd been lost long before serpentine'd found it, maybe even during the first tree wars! she cautiously edged into the clearing, she suddenly felt that she was looking at another dragon that very moment, she tried to shake off the i'm-being-watched-i-need-to-run feeling she was getting and crept closer, she got so close to the carving she could almost touch it, but she had heard of stories of something about a special type of magic that originated with the icewings called "animus magic" that could enchant objects, animals, and even dragons to do everything but raise the dead, so she wondered if that made it to pantala? just in case, she took 2 sticks that looked like they could pick it up and she did, but they both instantly snapped under it's weight, she then picked up a small emerald beetle from nearby and she set it on the carving, nothing happened, she almost jumped to it being animus-touched so only dragons would be effected, but then she remembered the greedy monkeys that lived this far into the poison jungle that some dragons kept as pets like what willow did with talkatoo, her pet cockatoo, so she decided it was safe to touch, instantly she felt a strange hum ripple from the carving into her talons, it was enchanted, all right, but not in the way normal animus-touched objects felt according to her mom's description of them, she was about to run to the trees to make a pouch when a voice seemed to come from all sides of her, "finally, a dragon!" it said, she listened to the echo for a bit before realizing that it wasn't coming from all around her, but from her very talons, she them also realized that her wyvern wings were rustling up the grass and were bound to attract noise sooner or later*
