'Sirocco' is a male SandWing who
was introduced in Darkness of Dragons. His last known whereabouts were
in the Scorpion Den, and he is a member of the Talons of Power.

## Description

Sirocco is hulking, large, and burly. He wears a black hood and golden
medallion etched with the image of a vulture, and has three
Dragons|dragon skull tattoos trailing down his neck. He has a rough,
gravelly voice, and either he or Rattlesnake looks a lot like Qibli. He
is smaller than Rattlesnake.

## Personality

Qibli once mentioned that Pyrrhia would be much better off if Sirocco
was locked up where he could not hurt anyone. He is empty-headed and
clumsy, and often growls at others.

## Biography

### The Dragonet Prophecy

#### The Brightest Night

Qibli described Rattlesnake and Sirocco as "a pair of dung-snorting
hippo heads who'd rather stab him with their tails than share so much as
a fig with him" when Sunny asked Qibli if he had any siblings.

### The Jade Mountain Prophecy

#### Moon Rising

Moonwatcher saw Rattlesnake and Sirocco frequently in Qibli's thoughts
when she was using her mind-reading abilities. She also had a vision
about Qibli fighting Rattlesnake and Sirocco, with an older male dragon,
Vulture, glowering at him and Qibli shouting, "Where is she?" referring
to Cobra, his mother.

#### Winter Turning

After Winter saved Qibli, Moon, and Kinkajou by breathing frostbreath at
a flaming scavenger projectile, Qibli commented that his family probably
would have stabbed him with the projectile themselves rather than save
him.

#### Escaping Peril

Two SandWings were shown buying Plants#Dragonflame cactus|dragonflame
cacti from a SkyWing vendor. They were Sirocco and Rattlesnake
collecting the cacti for Vulture.

#### Talons of Power

Sirocco was indirectly mentioned when Qibli said that he had siblings
who liked to pick on him.

In the epilogue, a group of dragons, which had likely included Sirocco
and Rattlesnake, terrified the SandWing tribe by setting off dragonflame
cacti in different places throughout the Kingdom of Sand.

#### Darkness of Dragons

Sirocco and Rattlesnake were at their and Qibli's old home to take him
and Winter to Vulture. He was shown constantly at Rattlesnake's side;
the latter commented that he was a meathead who gave their family a bad
name due to his clumsiness and lack of brains. He and Rattlesnake were
defeated by their mother and nearly killed before Qibli convinced her to
spare them. Sirocco was bound and gagged, then left behind in Vulture's
Vulture's compound|compound with his unconscious sister while they
escaped.

## Relationships

### Qibli

Alongside Rattlesnake, Sirocco threw Qibli into walls, trapped his tail
in doors, or buried him in sand in acts of bullying.
