The Dragonets of Destiny

I Originally did this for Smaugust day 1 “from a book” except it took way too long so i’ve decided i am not doing Smaugust lol

ive always wanted to draw the dragonets and iron out my designs for them and im super happy with how this turned out. maybe ill do a pt 2 and 3 with the povs from the other arcs…?

you are welcome to use my designs as long as you credit me :)

design notes:

Coming from a blood-red egg, Clay is immune to damage from fire. Instead of becoming scarred he develops faint swirl-markings across his scales as marks of his ability to withstand intense heat. He has hazel eyes that appear more green in contrast to his warm coloring.

Tsunami is covered in scars from the many battles she’s been through, including ripped fins, burnt gills, and slashes all over her body. She offsets her worn intimidating appearance with ropes of pearls around her horns; gifts from her mom in the kingdom of the sea. After Clay she is the largest of the dragonets.

Glory is noticeably duller than most RainWings, and tends to keep her coloring in the green-blue spectrum. She too is covered in scars, but unlike the other dragonets these are not marks from battle but rather evidence of Kestrel’s hatred. Being a very humble queen, she prefers to keep her attire simple: a crown of flowers and silver hoop earrings.

Starflight wears glasses, and instead of being fully blinded by lava in the volcano he was partially blinded by the intense light which permanently damaged his eyes. He can only pick up light, dark, and the shapes of objects and other dragons. He is covered in scars along his side from the volcano, but was lucky enough to have Clay shield his head from any of the damage.

Sunny is the smallest of the five, and her bright coloring is noticeably very different from the usual pale sandy grey of most SandWing’s. Her eyes are a very very dark green, and she wears an amber teardrop earring; a gift from her mother in the kingdom of the sand as a reminder of her home. Her adopted brother Qibli has one very similar. She is noticeably the least scarred of the dragonets, as she was able to use her small size to wiggle out of battles.

can we talk more about how Glory is literally absurdly abused

like, all the dragonets had terrible childhoods, but I believe there is specifically a line in book three that says”so any time any of the guardians had a bad day, someone did bad in battle training, or they simply remeber they had a useless Rainwing instead of the skywing they were supposed to have, Glory was a perfect target for a harsh blow.”

And like, no one is talking about this? My girl is up there with Qibli Winter and Peril for most abused children in this series in my opinion. Can we bring this up more?

if i had a nickel for every character/set of characters i'd hyperfixated on who was being slowly crushed by the weight of a heroic destiny and spent a significant amount of time living underground, i would have four nickels. which isn't a lot but it's

full design for clay! i wanted to experiment with my mudwing tattoo headcanons, specifically that a bigwings will get their troop's talonprints on their wings when they become an adult.

other things pictured are a grass cord with four knots for each of the other dragonets, a necklace of fired clay beads with a jade piece designating his association with jade mountain academy, and a leg brace based off ones made for large dogs.
