Brother ~ Aetherstriker (Deceased)

Sister ~ Victory (Deceased)

## **Appearance**

Stormcloud is about half the size she should be and her scales are gleaming silver rather than the purplish-black she should have been. She has dull purple eyes and pale black horns and claws. Her tongue is dark gray and forked, and the undersides of her wings are pitch black with silver dotted scales.

## **Personality**

Stormcloud is mean. She doesn't care about what other dragons think of her and that's why she can get away with anything she wants without feeling bad for it. Stormcloud will fight you if you defy her, and she will do anything to get attention if you're ignoring her. She can be extremely annoying, but also incredibly reckless and will often throw herself into situations that are almost impossible. She thinks she can do anything and will try to do anything. There's just one thing, *never* wake up Stormcloud when she's napping unless you have a death wish.

## **Life**

Stormcloud was incredibly small when she was born, and therefore easily trampled by the other dragonets. She was also the slowest due to her shorter legs and small wings. Stormcloud was also always beaten in competitions. Stormcloud was a very sore loser back then, and when she lost, it *always* ended in violence. Stormcloud started practicing fighting on inanimate objects until her skills were over the top. She also practiced flying and running, so she wasn't last. She was never first, though, even after that. When she turned six, Everglow came to visit the cave. Stormcloud was napping at the time. Everglow woke her up and Stormcloud attempted to murder Everglow. It failed, obviously. Not soon after the Everglow visit, Aetherstriker invaded the cave. Everglow came to the raid as well, and Stormcloud immediately attacked the prophet. Everglow told Stormcloud to leave, and take the other dragonets away from Aetherstriker. Stormcloud reluctantly did so. She then arrived along with Cascade, Mirage, and Aurora, in the Sky Kingdom.

Stormcloud started off her life outside the cave by fighting with Mirage and Cascade. What else would she have done? A few days later, Stormcloud spotted Mirage talking with Xerocole. So what did Stormcloud do? She shoved herself into the conversation. After speaking with Xerocole, Stormcloud had already made up her mind. Xerocole had to be the next SandWing queen. Stormcloud told Xerocole that she would try to convince her mother to switch her alliance to Xerocole. So Stormcloud and Xerocole flew to the Night Kingdom. After speaking with Stormcloud, Moonlight agreed to ally with Xerocole. It was that simple. Stormcloud then returned to the Sky Kingdom, and she shoved into another one of Mirage's conversations. This time it was with Mahogany. Stormcloud threatened to kill Mahogany at first, then Mahogany told her she couldn't. So Stormcloud tried to do so. She failed, but destroyed his wings. Stormcloud had immediately took a liking to this dragon. He was a fighter, like her. Mahogany revealed to her that he was an assassin. Now knowing this, Stormcloud asked him not to tell Blazing that she and the other dragonets were in the Sky Kingdom. Mahogany agreed, for a price. Stormcloud did pay that price, she grabbed a piece of treasure from the NightWing palace, and came back to Mahogany at sundown because it was such a long flight. She only brought him one piece: A golden medallion. Stormcloud and Mahogany went their separate ways after that, but they were sure to meet again.

Stormcloud now had nothing to do. Incredibly bored, she decided to make Blazing mad. Stormcloud succeeded in doing so, and Blazing threatened to throw her in the arena. Being the annoying dragon she was, Stormcloud told Blazing that she could beat any dragon in her arena. Blazing kicked her out of the Sky Kingdom after that.

As the war came to a close, Stormcloud and the other dragonets prepared to choose the SandWing queen. Stormcloud voted for Xerocole, but some idiot decided that all the queens should get to vote as well, so Fennec won. After Fennec became queen, many dragons regretted their decision to make Fennec queen. Stormcloud had gotten animus abilities earlier by convincing an IceWing named Flurry to give them to her. From the moment she cast her first spell, that's when Nightmare started influencing her... and eventually taking over completely. (cont.)
