Webs

## Appearance

Webs has blue-green scales and wings, as well as a long tail and body.

He is large, bigger than Clay and Tsunami, and has a scar on his side near his tail, caused by an injury from Blister's venomous tail barb.

## Personality

Webs is somewhat cowardly but can be kind. Under the mountain, he sometimes brought the dragonets food that they liked and taught them a bar song, much to Dune and Kestrel's annoyance. He was the only guardian that brought Starflight scrolls to read. He was downcast when Morrowseer ordered the guardians to kill Glory, possibly because he was the one who brought her egg there or because he did not wish her dead, or both. Webs did not participate in the dragonets' abuse, but he did not do anything to prevent it. However, Webs risked his life in *The Lost Heir,* trying to see if the dragonets escaped by spying on the Summer Palace. As shown in *Moon Rising*, he is easily frustrated by off-topic questions, such as when Winter asked about NightWings. He seems rather determined to teach history to the Jade Mountain students, as he refuses to let Pike chase after Anemone in *Darkness of Dragons*. Webs seems to know a lot about history, as Sunny said that he was great at teaching. He was also said to be a crusty old shipwreck by Anemone, meaning that he must not have been exciting and very boring.

## Relationships

### Coral

Webs seems to be one of the dragons that Coral trusted until he deserted in battle and ran away with Tsunami's egg. After that, Coral had been planning his execution and vengeance on him when she found him. Webs seemed to respect and obey Queen Coral. This was one of the only times Webs had disobeyed her.

### Dragonets of destiny

Webs was one of the Guardians of the Dragonets. Even though he wasn't particularly friendly to them, he was much less cruel than Kestrel and Dune. Starflight says he looks carefully for scrolls when he goes to trade. He also tried to bring exotic and delicious food for the dragonets.

### Riptide

Webs seems to care about Riptide, as he is his son. When Coral's guards found him, he shouted at them to spare him, saying that he has nothing to do with him. He also seemed to care about Riptide's mother, too, as he was devastated when Coral said she sent her into battle, dying.
