I drew the SandWing royal couple because I just couldn’t quite figure out their facial features and color palettes. I wanted to create something fairly original while still preserving a sense of resemblance between them
Khamsina is the Queen of the Sand Kingdom, infamous for her terrible temper and the countless executions of those who displease her. She executed her own husband simply because he irritated her. Her daughter, Ephedra, was the only dragon in the entire kingdom who was never at risk of being killed by the Queen — though this was not out of love, but merely because she was Khamsina’s sole heir.
Khamsina could appear caring and generous because she was a narcissist who enjoyed presenting herself as a good person, but all of that vanished the moment someone dared to oppose her. Ephedra grew up withdrawn, quiet, and obedient, which somewhat disappointed Khamsina, who often reproached her daughter for failing to live up to her status.
At one point, Ephedra fell in love with a NightWing dragon and fled the palace with him, but they were both captured by the guards and brought back, where Khamsina killed the lover for daring to dishonor her daughter. Some time later, however, Ephedra laid an egg and desperately begged her mother to spare the dragonet’s life, swearing she would become the most obedient and worthy daughter possible. Khamsina agreed, but only on the condition that no one would ever learn about Desert Night — the name Ephedra gave her daughter — and that the child would never claim the throne.
For many years, the half-blood only caught the Queen’s attention when Khamsina needed leverage over Ephedra, threatening the life of her child. But Khamsina’s thirst for control eventually went even further: she decided she wanted another granddaughter whom she could “raise properly, since there is no hope left for you, my daughter.” Ephedra refused, and only fresh threats toward Night forced her to agree to marriage. Yet a few days later, Ephedra fled again — this time alone.
The search eventually led to the discovery of her dead body at the age of twenty-seven by human standards, and Khamsina was furious. She had lost her only heir. Reluctantly, she was forced to recognize her granddaughter, Night, as the new heiress. Thus, for the first time, the palace officially learned of her existence.
The following years became a living hell for Desert Night, because she was now aggressively trained for the role of crown princess — a role that had once been completely closed to her. While her early life had been relatively free and ignored by everyone, now her grandmother’s attention was fixed entirely upon her. Khamsina believed she had spoiled Ephedra too much and was determined not to repeat the same mistake with Desert Night.
Unlike Ephedra, Night had not been crushed from childhood, and so she had managed to develop a strong will and personality of her own. The only difference was that Night skillfully concealed it beneath a mask of cold propriety. Her greatest dream and goal became killing the grandmother she hated so deeply, but she patiently waited for the right moment — and eventually, that opportunity came.
A guard around her own age took notice of Desert Night. He was part of a circle of revolutionaries plotting to overthrow Khamsina. Their plan lacked only one final piece: someone who would ascend the throne after the murder of the current Queen…
100 tribes number 5, Leaf/Mud guy called Pistachio
Backstory and stuff under the cut
He was lots of fun to draw, I got inspired to make him when I was munching on some pistachios and thought the colors were rather pretty. I quite like how he turned out.
Anyways, this is Pistachio. As far as hybrids go, he's a lot closer to his mother's tribe of Leafwing. He grew up in the Leafwing forest with his sibs and both his parents. He has some very weak firebreath and also a bit of leafspeak, which he uses to maintain his grove of nut trees. Physically, his build leans more Mudwing, but he does have mostly Leafwing coloration with leaf shaped wings and Leafwing frills. Pistachio is rather reserved, but kind and generous with a surprisingly good sense of humor once you get him out of his shell (get it? Shell? No? Ok that wasn't funny I'm sorry, he has better humor than me).
I decided to design some Wings of Fire dragons with pride colors! (Ignore that they don’t work with the genetics system I made for the most part). These were done with bases, as I realized I was not going to be able to draw 11 dragons in one artwork in time.
I noticed that most people use only Rainwings to represent pride flags, which makes lots of sense, but it bothered me that other tribes were left to the wayside, so thus here we are. I would love to do a second round with more pride flags so I would love some suggestions!
Also if there is interest I would be willing to release the head bases!
Art below the cut
Enby / Non-Binary - Mudwing. Purple is a bit non cannon but Some Nightwing ancestry is all you need! Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Bi / Bisexual - Rainwing. Should have added more blending, but still like this design! Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Old Aro-Ace / Aromantic and Asexual - Nightwing. Love the wings here I did use an older flag but that’s just because I couldn’t find a good contender for the Aromantic flag all on its own! Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Trans / Transgender - Seawing. This was heavily influenced by Anemone, although I used the trans flag colors at full brightness. Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Intersex - Sandwing. Had lots of fun with all the yellows! Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Lesbian - Skywing. The flag that inspired this entire idea! The white looks a bit odd but still a plausible Skywing! Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Gay / Men Loving Men - Icewing. Such pretty colorrssssss. Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Abro / Abrosexual -Leafwing. More pink than we’ve seen in cannon but it looks pretty so shhhh. Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Aro-Ace / Aromantic-Asexual - Hivewing. The white reminds me of a Bald-Faced Hornet. Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Pan / Pansexual - Silkwing. We love how pretty they look! Credit to Joy Ang for the side profile base Credit to me for the front facing head base.
Progress Pride - Beetlewing. The colors are honestly a tad bit muddy but it think they still looks pretty! Credit to xTheDragonRebornx on deviant art for the base edit, Joy Ang for the side profile base and, me for further base edits Credit to me for the front facing head base.
