### Pre-Series

Tailwind lived in the SkyWing palace during the reign of Queen
Firestorm. They would avoid the queen, preferring to make and use swords
instead of caring about their appearance. They were brought in to teach
a class while Scarlet was still in the wingery which started their
dislike for the princess.

Years later, Tailwind's brother, Canyon, told them that he had a crush
on Scarlet which Tailwind teased him about. When Tailwind learned that
Canyon and Scarlet were getting married, Tailwind attended the royal
wedding.

When Canyon was put into the SkyWing palace#SkyWing Arena|arena,
Tailwind gifted their brother throwing daggers and armor, but Canyon did
not survive.

## Relationships

### Canyon

Despite Canyon being their brother, Tailwind was not sentimental toward
him. They believed that there was not a lot to love about him and viewed
him as a dragon they happened to be related to. They found him
insufferable, but still attended his wedding with Scarlet. Although
Tailwind described Canyon as egotistical, dim, careless, and
self-obsessive, they gifted Canyon throwing daggers and armor for when
he got put in the arena.
