Description

___________
Name: Pineapple
Nickname (s): Pinap
Gender: Male
Preferred Pronouns: Him/he
Occupation: Student
Winglet: Amethyst
Tribe: Rainwing
Powers: While Pinapple's colours are normally light yellow and faded mint, he can change his scales like any regular Rainwing. He also has venom like regular Rainwings and the need for suntime.
Physical Description: While a little scrawny, Pineapple tries to make up for his diminutive size with a positive outlook on things. Due to his positivity, his scales are almost always tinted with yellow somewhere which only vanish when he tries to hide them. Having a tendency to be weirdly reflective, it's possible he has some Nightwing heritage down the line. Something Pineapple can't hide though, when trying to do so, are the faint green splotches on his scales (metaphorically speaking). Unlike most, if all, Rainwings Pinap has a full frill around the back of his head (much like the appropriately named Frilled-Neck Lizard).

A big bag of nerves. He's utterly terrified by any new situation but, despite this, will still give it his all.
Judgemental. While on the surface he's polite to anyone and everyone, under those layers is a dragon who will always be silently judging you but scolding themselves for doing so.
Lazy. Not the 'lazy rainwing' stereotype of the past, more of a 'I should be doing this but I just can't be bothered' type.
Pineapple can keep a conversation going for a while. He knows how awkward chitchats can get so he'll openly say that the other can call it quits if he notices they seem to be straining for exits.
He tries to be friendly and outgoing but his nerves often get the better of him.
Pinap has a dreadful habit of not asking for help when it's needed. He hates asking for things in fear that he'll interrupt someone for something that was easy to do, thus will often keep quiet instead.
He's polite. Maybe a bit too polite.
He tries to be supportive and outgoing even when he himself may be in need of support. He's a shoulder to lean on without a shoulder himself.
Sarcastic. You can't get through life without having a sense of humour. For Pineapple, his comedy is sarcasm and hyperbole, much to some dragons annoyances.

Include at least a paragraph for every major section of their life (newborn, dragonet, adult; along with any sections within these that may be major in a unique way to your dragon).
Pre-hatching- Pineapple's parents aren't of much relevance as before he hatched a dreadful sickness spread through the forest like wildfire. Fortunately, though many dragons became sick, it didn't claim many fatalities. Unfortunately Pineapple's biological parents were two of a minority who did pass. Due to their deaths before his hatching, Pinap doesn't think about them very often. On rare occasions though he'll catch himself wondering if things could have been different had they been around, and what they would have been like.
He also killed someone and melted away their body.
Dragonet- The start of Pineapple's life was much like your average Rainwing's life. Nothing spectacular, nothing whimsical, nothing but sun, food and flying. That all changed when Pinap met a small lizard. This lizard, which the dragon named Dart, would not leave his side after one lesson on literature. At the time Pinap saw Dart as a pest more than anything and would try to find ways of getting the lizard to go away. These methods included roaring, flying, shouting, but never swatting; he could never bring himself to hurt Dart despite how annoying they were back then.
Eventually Pineapple found himself perplexed by how quick Dart would dart between the trees as he tried to escape the tiny reptile. Thus, Dart got his name. Over time Pineapple grew attached to the smaller flyer. He'd take note whenever Dart would act differently or try to get his attention or want affection. Once, when feeding the lizard a butterfly, Pineapple wondered why he'd never tried to change his scales to scare Dart away.
When nobody was watching, in the middle of the day, Pinap would sneak away to one of the Rainforest's famous lakes and stand on the shore, changing his scales in the reflection. He'd paint his scales the colours of tribes and animals, of sunsets and skylines. A streak of creativity ran through his veins as he'd make the patterns on his wing membranes dance and jive to the banjo he'd learned to play since his lake-visits started. Little sparks of life on his wings and frill. Despite being young himself, Pineapple would visit dragonets and perform with his wing-shows as a form of entertainment.
Once he heard of the Academy on Jade Mountain, and the lessons of literature, art, music and the like, he knew that that was the next step. It took a little bit of convincing from some mutual friends for him to pack up and head to the Academy, but with Dart on his shoulder and one of his brother's farewell gifts around his neck, Pineapple gritted his teeth and headed west.
Current- With any luck Pineapple hopes he'll be making friends and learning without his anxiety convincing him to turn around and fly away.

"I've never really met any Mudwings to be frank. Though, I must admit, I rather admire the loyalty they have with their siblings."
Oso
"Can I just, like, hug him forever?"
SkyWings
"I met a Skywing once. He was a really good cook but he also swore a lot. I think most Skywings swear a lot."
Falcon
"Bit of a grumpy ass, not sure what to make of her yet."
IceWings
"I haven't met an Icewing who didn't point their nose in the air at me. It is rather entertaining to mimic their snubby posture though!"
Glaze
"He can certainly keep my attention when talking."
SeaWings
"I once tried to race a Seawing. She beat me in the swimming part, I beat her in the flying part, and neither of us won in the running part because we both got too tired. They seem nice, if a little vain."
Kraken
"Kraaaaken, what to say, she's bloody awesome and feisty-er then what I expected!"
RainWings
"Rainwings are pretty darn awesome. But if I was to nitpick, I'd say that some of us can be quite judgemental to things that aren't the 'norm'."

{NPC} Dart, not a Rainwing but a pet
Rind
"I don't know him too well but together we're yellow fellows."
SandWings
"Hissy lizards with snake-like attitudes and deadly tails. I'm not a fan."

"These Sandwings keep proving me wrong. I admire his bravery, and he's a brilliant story-teller!"
NightWings
{NPC} Daybreak, friend
Daybreak's one of my friends from back home. She's rather nifty!
Dreamkiller
Dreamkiller is rather intimidating, I must say. Though, despite this, I'm rather intrigued by her at the same time.
Mixed Tribe
"Love who you wanna love I suppose. No need to judge."
Skink/Sirocco
While Sandwings and Icewings normally rub my scales the wrong way, I must say that Skink is a pleasure to be around. He's got a nice colour pallet too!
