Name: Aureus

Name Reasoning: 'Aureus' means yellow

(False, an 'aureus' is a gold coin used by Rome a realllllly long time ago. But overall It's a latin word meaning gold so it's close enough!)

Gender: Male

Age: 15

Tribe: SandWing

Sexuality: Heterosexual, Pansromantic

Rank: Leader of his father's gang (Gangster)

Occupation: Leader of a gangResidence: In the large SandWing village, Gila Town near the IceWing tundra and the Kingdom of Sand.

Looks: Aureus is a short, sharp, and slightly lean SandWing with a pale mustard yellow color. Has a white underbelly, wings, and a white barb. He has a few brown flecks on his shoulders, kind of like freckles on his shoulders, and on his forearms, snout, and along his wings. Has very dark hazel eyes with a black tattoo that swirls down along his cheeks and neck. His father's gang symbol is on his left wing (a camel spider) what he has tried to get off of him for a while now (carefully trying to rip just the tattoo). Has a small gold band on his forearm he rarely wears, given to him by Hare. Most say he doesn't look like he can fit in with his gang, mostly cause he has a baby face.

(Short sandwing, unusual considering how most are depicted as very tall! I like it! Otherwise I like his description he's a pretty interesting sounding sandwing, simple yet unique!)

Personality: To show he can fit in with his old gang, he was very careful yet aggressive, not to mention bossy. He was very determined and loud, mostly to get his point across and to show he was like his father. To Hare, he wasn't as aggressive, but was very irritated easily by her mindset on her only being a low life, only to be molded into serving him. He is known to be the apple of his mother's eye, cause of his mature nature and mindset. He is very much against underage drinking, underage intimacy, and heavily against racism. Loves music with nearly all of his heart, when he was younger though.  

(He sounds like a tough love sort of dragon, and would it be tribism?? I love how you explain his personality though I would of added how he's very headstrong and heart strong, a trait shown in his backstory.)

Abilities: Fire breath, heated scales, barb tail, can camouflage into the desert sand well. Normal SandWing things.  

Strengths: Fighting, acting tough, talking in front of others, leadership skills (still working on it though)  

Weakness: Not the most calmest of dragons, very competitive, says way too many bad words, even for a gangster.

(So what you're saying is he has flaws and can't always hold up under the pressure, adding a layer of depth to his character? Awesome! Also how much can I make if I use the swear jar on him-)

Likes: Sun bathing, music, Hare, he has devilled in drawing before, even though he's not very good at it.

It's interesting to have a character that likes something even if they aren't good at it. Likes defiantly don't have to be limited to just things characters are good at.)

Dislikes: His singing voice, to much cold, his dad, getting accused of things he didn't do.  

Family Mother: Eve (a plant found in the desert) - a sandy yellow SandWing that is covered head to toe in jewelry, with very dark brown eyes. Had very long horns, almost like devil horns. Dead. He appreciates her for teaching me how to read and write. Father: Camel Spider (Spider) - a pale brownish-yellow SandWing with a mangled back right leg, wears a pair of camel spider earings, and a spider necklace. Has dark forest green eyes. Dead. Didn't really care for him. Brother: Roadrunner - a dusty brown, tall, chubby SandWing with a pale yellow underbelly. Had dark brown eyes. Dead. Found him annoying.  

Enemies: Smoke - A very much burnt SkyWing with very dark gray scales. Has a burnt yellow colored underbelly and wings. Has light grey eyes. Alive. Has x4 the fire, making his scales melt together. Experiment. Vengeful for him killing Hare.

Crush: Hare - An graceful albino SandWing with some say, scales paler then an IceWing's. Had pure white scales that blinded most people when seen in sunlight. Had blood red eyes. Dead.(Oooo.. oooo boy, being an albino sandwing must suck, considering albinos have poor eyesight and are very sensitive to bright light ie the desert sun, and overall are weak to sun/light exposure. She probably wouldn't actually be all that graceful, considering she'd be constantly squinting, probably bumping into things, and be constantly twitching involuntarily. Butttt this isn't about her somill stop talking.)

Mate: None

Dragonets: None

Backstory: Aureus was born a year after his brother, who was already being shaped into being the new leader of their gang, 'The Coyotes' a vicious gang of dragons that were one of the most violent gangs in the SandWing Kingdom. At the time, he was watched over by a lot of the gang members, as his parents were both very busy with making agreements and dealing with other gangs. When he was one month old, his brother took him outside and to the Gila Plaza, where a large talent show was being played at. A musician stepped up, and began to play a very lovely song, making him fall in love nearly in a heartbeat.Roadrunner realize his mistake shortly after, cause after that, Aureus began to sneak out to head to the Plaza; trying to listen to the few musicians that normal was around. When a plague of a strange disease swept over the SandWings, resulting his brother and mother getting sick (though they didn't die from it. Almost seventy percent of the gang had died however), making The Coyotes desperate for new members (the possibility of a large gang war right on the brink). To protect him, his father bought a slave for him, who went by the name of Hare. Hare was four, yet she had intelligence coursed through her. She was slightly above average in fighting, but once becoming his 'bodyguard', he realized she was only this way because her father was an assassin who taught her how to fight. Aureus and her grow closer over time, but only when they were alone, as Spider would have a fit if he learned that his son was treating Hare like a normal dragon. "She is only your bodyguard, a servant that dies to protect you from danger, they're expendable." he told him one day. Aureus later was taught how to fight thanks to Hare during their night time work outs they did frequently to get ready for the gang war. His brother learned about this, and told their parents, making both Eve and Spider furious. Realizing his son was growing to close to his bodyguard, when the time came for the gang war, he put her in the front of the lines. Aureus was outraged by his father's choice, and demanded that he change that, to make her follow him as he and his family made an escape. Spider refused, and gave him two choices, go with them to safety, or to stay behind and get caught in the war. Aureus chose to stay, and not run off and hide like his parents, and rather 'face death then run like cowards'. When the gang war was about to happen, Hare found him, trying to talk him into run away with his parents. Aureus told her he wasn't leaving, and would see this until the end, accidentally confessing to her too. Before Hare could respond to his accidental confession, the war started very suddenly. Aureus lost her in the crowd of angry wing flaps, war cries, and smoke from their fires. He hurried to help, taking out a few SandWings along the way, before finally finding her. When he found her, she was very bloody, scratches all over her, and a crushed barb, making her have a hard time fighting. Aureus begged her to follow him, but Hare told him just what he told his parents: saying she would 'face death then run like a coward'. Aureus then insisted they fight together then, which the two did skillfully. However, Hare noticed a SkyWing and another SandWing trying to get away, which she tried to stop. However, the SkyWing killed her as she attempted to. Aureus tried to save her, she was already gone. He swore he would find that SkyWing, and tried to fight till the last of the war. The Coyotes won against the The King's Servants (the other gang who were very religious to the first SandWing king, Ra). He gained word that shortly after he left his parents, a small group of dragons came and met them on the other side of their escape route, and had finished them. Aureus became the gang leader, and still is. He wishes Hare was still with him, so they could rule together sometimes.

(I love how he found his passion for music, and I love how overall it was a love sort of drama. There was the motto of 'face death then run like a coward' which I found showed itself in everything Aureus did, he's rather do everything with courage even if there might be consequences instead of be tied down. I would of liked more detail of how he came to like Hare, and more about how he contributed to this gang of his.)

Other: Aureus It have his own book, not 100% sure yet.

————— 8/10 

(Look who finally put his ass into gear and did a thing xD) 

Originality and Creativity: 23/25 both original and creative! A sandwing gang war mixed with a plague, perhaps the cannon plague that killed King Char? Sorry I'm uncertain you missed the time era. 

Detail and effort: 23/25 I can see you did put a lot of effort into the names and the characters, all the names are the first I've heard. I really wish you'd put more in the others, and some of the details given were there lose ends, like his mother for example. 

Realism and interest: 20/25 really spare Hare everything was realistic and captured my attention, like in my summary of the backstory I love him and Hare's sort of forbidden romance and it wasn't a 'oh we can't be together because separate tribes' romance so that was a breath of fresh air!
