{briefly; intelligent, cunning, short-tempered, stoic}
Detailed personality here;
Bowfin is a rather smart dragon- when she wants something she never needs to use violence or manipulation to get there, instead having years worth of knowledge in what dragons want to see. Often she doesn't want direct conflict and isn't very persuasive. Usually she tends to get annoyed when dragons speak to her or don't understand what she wants- she doesn't directly see herself as too smart for people, but it comes across in her voice. Really, she doesn't want to get you upset with her!
She's good at making plans and strategies! Often they benefit her in some way- its pretty hard to get her to do something that doesn't in some way benefit her own goals. She won't do anything criminal like murder or theft, but she easily gets around those morals in... other ways. Sure, she's trustworthy. She's also maybe not the best person to go against. She will make a plan to take you out that gets nobody upset- and maybe nobody will even know it happened.
As a guild leader she's fair, trying to keep stuff just and not give other dragons too many limitations. She doesn't want to put much pressure on people, and if you ask her questions usually you'll get an annoyed yes.
She views herself as a full MudWing and has no care for SeaWings.
History:
She's been in some fights. As the second oldest of her siblings, she was always second best- listening to the bigwings of her group, doing her best to appear normal despite the glowing bits that didn't match those of any other dragons in her tribe. Eventually it was admitted that she was not actually part of the sib group- her egg was adopted later on to make up for one that got crushed in an accident. They didn't notice her hybrid ancestry until it was too late, only claiming that they found the egg near the Sea Kingdom.
She never really got over this, spending a lot of her time doing her own thing and becoming even more alienated from her tribe because of it. She worked on her own stuff, keeping mostly to herself until she eventually left the kingdom at the age of 20. Some time after she learned that her bigwings was killed in a fight against some other tribe- and with that, it was the end of her time living in the kingdom proper.
Leaving towards the rainforest, she ran into a NightWing named Revenant- and despite Bowfin's lack of interest in staying in the rainforest, the two of them rapidly hit it off and eventually decided to leave together to join a merchants guild. Revenant, liking to work with his claws, worked in the background keeping stuff running and thinking of new designs for carts and anti-scavenger measures- while Bowfin sold trinkets to kingdoms and brought the spoils back to share with him.
When the two of them were in their early thirties after years of spending time together, they officially became mates and continued doing what they usually did. This lasted for a few years, the two of them wanting dragonets someday, until one day Bowfin came home to find Revenant had died. It was some sort of sickness, they guessed- something he hid from her.
Unable to bring back as much treasure as she used to because of grief over his loss, she was demoted and eventually became a lower ranking dragon despite all the work they had done over the years. Enraged, she went into her usual planning- this all changed once she found an animus, and asked for two things: something that turns a dragon into a dragonet with no memories of who they used to be, and something that transports a dragon to the moon Anima. The animus did both of them, not knowing what she wanted this for.
She used both of these on the guild leader, the enchantments being destroyed after their power had been used up. With that she dealt with other higher ranked dragons (she never disclosed how, only that she didn't use her own claws.) And with that, Bowfin had staged a coup on the trade guild, becoming leader and immediately creating new laws. Dragons no longer needed to bring back as much treasure as before, they needed to respect the territory of other sellers in similar ranges, and the black market was disbanded- if you wanted something illegal or a bit strange, you would ask her directly. She has it all.
She's in her late 40s, still grieving her NightWing husband, now the recent leader of a trade guild.
(Timeline: Meets Revenant around 20, marries him at 34, he dies at 40, she gets kicked out for low money when she's 43, stages coup at 44, has been leading for 2 years now)
Family:
parents
mother: Unknown
father: Unknown
siblings
They don't matter. Never her real siblings, anyway.
relations
friends: Steppe, some unknown dragons, Revenant (her husband)
enemies: Whomever knows about and disagrees with her coup, the Moon Dragonet Guild Leader.
etc.
Did you buy an item for this character? If so, what did you buy?: Unusual colors (her numbers)
if you ask her about the numbers she always has different answers, such as "they look neat", "I was born with them", and "they're the increasing tally of my many sins!"
