Baby Dragonet > Mercy was born to a wealthy family of NightWings that had lived near the sea cliffs north of the Rainforest Kingdom for generations. They were very superstitious and believed that prophets brought the family fortune and good luck, so they always timed the hatching of their eggs with the moon cycles.
And so, when the time came, her mother carefully placed her egg on the highest balcony to bask in the moonlight, unaware that the night that she hatched was under a rare supermoon. Mercy was a seer alright, but not a normal one.
Though she was pampered, there was always an air of hostility coming from her parents. They loved her, yes, but expected her have had her first vision when she was barely a year old.
And when she didn’t… well…
Mercy spent most of her time in the mansion’s gardens. Nothing could describe the amount of joy she felt planting and pruning flowers. Eventually, her family took notice and hired some workers to build her own personal greenhouse on the grounds.
Her aunts taught her even more about botany.
Mercy saw her first vision while playing hide and seek with her baby cousin Cethosia near the family’s pool. One moment she was looking for Ceth and then the next she was transported to her grandparents’ wedding. It was winter, not a cloud in the sky. Her grandmother’s face, which was always twisted into a disapproving scowl, was unmarked by age. She smiled sweetly at a gray NightWing with a red star-like marking on his forehead, who was none other than Mercy’s grandfather, and nuzzled him.
Suddenly she was snapped out of her trance, confused. What was that how did she see something that happened decades ago? Her grandfather died before she was born, so how in Clearsight’s name was he standing right in front of her?
Her cousin was visibly shaken too. She made Ceth swear that they wouldn’t tell her parents what happened.
Dragonet >
When she was old enough, her parents sent her to one of the most prestigious mixed Rain-Night schools in the kingdom.
Mercy was put into an all-seers class, run by a strict NightWing named Grizzly. She was taught how to manage and interpret her visions. As far as anybody knew, she was a normal prophet.
When she asked Grizzly if having visions of the past was even possible, they shrugged and her classmates thought she was joking.
Inside the school’s massive library, she seized the opportunity to learn more about her strange visions.
For weeks on end she went through hundreds of scrolls with no avail until finally, written in barely legible handwriting on a crusty scroll, she found her answer: past-sight. It was a rarely documented moon power given to NightWings born under the biggest moons.
When she was 5, Mercy realized she didn’t identify with the gender she was assigned at hatching and changed her pronouns. The reaction at home was mixed. On one hand, her aunts were happy for her coming out while her parents threatened to disown her.
Mercy took off to the west.
After a few days of flying, she collapsed from heat exhaustion in the middle of the desert
In incredibly poor timing, Mercy had another vision. This time she saw the bloody and burnt corpses of several SandWings and MudWings scattered across the dunes. That was weird, the tribes weren’t at war? How far back could she see?
Something or well, someone pulled her out of the vision and she groggily opened her eyes to see a SandWing staring down at her. He later introduced himself as Prongs, a member of a trio of traveling magicians. They were making their way over to catch a boat to Mezzo for their next performance when they noticed her lying in the sand.
They invited her back to their tent where the other two members of the group, Parch and Dustdevil, were preparing a roasted camel. The three gladly gave her the first food and water she had in days
When it was time for them to leave, they asked Mercy if she would like to come to Mezzo with them.
She agreed and the group made their way over to the docks.
When they arrived, they let her stay in the house they rented for the show. She wanted to help them pay the rent so she went out to see if she could get any botany-related jobs, plants were her specialty after all.
Eventually, she was hired by a Sea/Leaf hybrid named Pixie, who ran her own little plant shop.
Young Adult > And so began Mercy’s six-year-long apprenticeship under the hybrid. The NightWing watered plants, tilled the soil, polished glass vases, helped customers, and eased the germination process. Mercy even saved up to afford her own little flower nursery in her shared apartment with the SandWings.
Pixie decided to retire in 3028 and gave Mercy full ownership of the store, where she works to this day.
Mercy hires a young Night/Leaf hybrid by the name of Moonshadow in 6032.

PARENTS >
>> Envy (father)- Envy is a terrifyingly tall drake with dark brown scales and prophetic abilities. He’s descended from a small group of NightWings that broke off from the original rainforest population and were raised by the coast near the Mud Kingdom border. At one point, his bloodline crossed with the local MudWings, which has led to some unique horn shapes and heavier builds in the family.
>> Moondancer (mother)- Moondancer has deep turquoise scales and starlike freckles sprinkled all over her body. She has piebald markings on her talons and wings.
SIBLINGS >
>> Dreamkeeper (sister)- Mercy has never met her younger sister, nor knows that she exists.
OTHER RELATIVES >
>> Omengiver (aunt)- Omengiver has deep red scales and prophetic abilities. She’s married to a SilkWing Illumote named Periander.
>> Cethosia (cousin)- Cethosia is a Night x Silk hybrid with four pairs of wings and green-yellow scales. They have latent prophetic abilities, and suspects that their hybridness has something to do with it. Conceived via the Magic Egg™️.
