SkyWings are one of the seven tribes living on Pyrrhia. They live in The Sky Kingdom located on the central and north part of Pyrrhia, on the "wing" of the continent. Some SkyWings also live in the town of Possibility, located between the sky kingdom and The Kingdom of Sand. They are currently ruled by Queen Ruby. However, they used to be ruled by Queen Scarlet up to the end of The Dragonet Prophecy. They are the fastest fliers compared to all the other dragon tribes, and are characterized by their large wings and hot fire. There are not any known SkyWing Animus dragons currently living, nor of any that might have existed. SkyWings are afraid of the potential dangers of an animus dragon, and would have killed them if they would have had any.

Appearance

SkyWing scales are able to be crimson, red, orange, or yellow, with underscales that tend to be lighter than their other scales. Their eyes are able to be orange, amber, or yellow, SkyWings with firescales being the exception, who have blue eyes.

Skywings are muscular dragons with long, waving horns. They have small spikes on their back and the largest wingspan of all the tribes. They have a spike on the tip of their snout, and one spike on either side of their jaw.

Abilities

SkyWing are known to have the hottest fire, and are able to hold their fire into the highest heat to get it that way, they are also the fastest tribe in flight. Some dragonets may hatch with a condition known as firescales, where the dragonet has too much fire and will have scales that are able to engulf objects in flames when touched. SkyWings can be fireless, and are paler than SkyWings with fire.

History

During the War of SandWing Succession

The queen of the SkyWings during the war was Queen Scarlet, who was allied with Burn and the MudWings. Scarlet was a savage leader. She held her prisoners atop an arena, where they fought to the death for a chance of freedom. However, after a few wins, she would send in her "champion," Peril, and she would immediately kill them with her firescales.

Glory shooting her venom at Queen Scarlet, The Dragonet Prophecy: The Graphic Novel

Close to the end of the war during The Dragonet Prophecy, Queen Scarlet had captured The Dragonets of Destiny: Clay, Tsunami, Starflight, Glory and Sunny. However, during a battle in the arena between Clay and Peril, Glory shot her deadly venom at Queen Scarlet's face. Scarlet had survived, but she had disappeared and it was uncertain for everyone if she had survived or not. The kingdom was brought to disarray. In Scarlet's place, her daughter, Ruby, took the throne. Not all SkyWings choose to follow Ruby, and choose to stay loyal to Scarlet. However, most backed Ruby, and wanted her to stay queen. Some feared that this event could have made the war even worse.
