Description

EDIT: Updated character sheet can now be found here 


Breed: Nightwing x Rainwing hybrid

Sex: Male

Age: Six years old (if he were a human he'd be about sixteen)

Build: Thin and lanky. Closer in build to a Rainwing than a Nightwing.

Distinct Features: Long narrow face, long semi-prehensile tail usually held in a loose curl, long spines on back, and extra spines in place of Rainwing ruff.

Accessories: Red and white beaded necklace with a metal strawberry pendant, which was given to him as a gift by Truthseeker.

Mother: Hope (Foeslayer)

Romantic Interest: Truthseeker (my fan interpretation of Clearsight reincarnated, as well as the blacksmith from Moon's vision)

Mentor: Orchid

Clawmate: Cliff

Close Friends: Moonwatcher, Kinkajou, Cliff, and Auklet.

Residence: Rainforest Kingdom. Later Jade Mountain Academy.

Abilities: Can breathe fire like a Nightwing, and grab and/or hold onto very light things with his semi-prehensile tail. He is also unbelievable gifted with just about every kind of plant imaginable.

Occupation: Apprentice gardener, specializing in growing important medicinal herbs, and fruits and vegetables not native to the rainforest.

Hobbies: Singing rather badly (much to Cliff's continuing dismay), weaving (which he is equally terrible at), and fishing (which he learns from Auklet). He will also occasionally bake and make jam, which he's gotten pretty good at after a bit of trial and error.

Personality: Friendly, kind, hard-working, enthusiastic, passionate about his work, and seriously committed to his friends. However he also has a bit of Darkstalker's charm and sarcasm hidden just below the surface. His sarcasm is so subtle it tends to go over most dragons' heads. Without Darkstalker's powers he grew into a much less confident dragon, and can be surprisingly insecure about certain things. He has a tendency to bite his tongue rather than just say what he's thinking, and this can lead to him bottling up his emotions unnecessarily. He's good at putting on a happy face, though, and not even those closest to him know about the strange dreams which have plagued him for as long as he can remember. All in all, he's a shamelessly lovable little dork who it's hard not to fall in love with.  

Random Facts

 Brought the first strawberry plants to the rainforest after a trip into the mountains with Moon and Kinkajou.
 Memories of being Darkstalker come to him in his dreams, though of course he doesn't know that's what they are.
 Has a bit of insecurity regarding the rainbow scales beneath his wings due to the other Nightwing dragonets teasing him about them when he was little.
 Worryingly enthusiastic about his work with plants to the point that it tends to concern the other dragons around him.
Suffers from claustrophobia (subconsciously due to his time trapped in the cave during his previous life) and although he's made great strives in overcoming it over the years, he still gets nervous in cave-like, enclosed spaces. When he came to Jade Mountain Academy they had to set up his sleeping quarters in a cave with an opening in the roof in order for him to feel comfortable. Going to classes in the underground caves can be hard on him, and more than once he finds himself fighting back panic attacks.





Decided to put this together, not just for myself, but for other people as well. If you want to use this design for Peacemaker, feel free, just so long as you credit me. Obviously I recycled other pictures I've drawn of him to make this, because honestly I didn't want to commit the amount of time it would take to draw them from scratch. I'm still really happy with how it turned out, and was really excited to get to draw his necklace. The last few pictures didn't have it in there because it was either before he met Truthseeker or while he's in Darkstalker rage mode (during which he doesn't wear it).


  
No critique desired. Please respect that.

Character belongs to Tui T. Sutherland.

The backdrop is from the cover of Wings of Fire: Darkness of Dragons and does NOT belong to me.

That's a cool headcanon. I describe my Peacemaker as 'Darkstalker Light', so a lot of the same personality traits, just more toned down and without the negative influence of his powers or toxic upbringing.

Sorry about my comment...some how my words got jumbled. 

Long story short I love this AU!

That's all right, I still understood what you meant. I agree, as you can probably tell. This AU was made very shortly after the release of Darkness of Dragons to relieve some of the negative feelings I had about it, and I'm so happy other people have come to enjoy it as well! Thanks!

You're welcome


My big beef is not that Darkstalker was changed into Peacemaker, it is that Tui says that Peacemaker will never learn who he was. Sure he would have a happy life...but sometimes ignorance is not bliss. What I like about the preview of the final chapter in your fanfic, is that Peacemaker (and by extent Darkstalker) is redeemed. He is angry at first and plans to continue what he started but ultimately chooses not to.


All in all I feel this is a much more worthy ending to Peacemaker's arc than what is canon.

Aw, thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed my story. 

For me the whole canon plot just felt like a cheap solution to a complex problem. Though my biggest beef is and always will be how hypocritical it felt. Yes, magically altering someone's mind is TOTALLY wrong, as we've stated continually throughout the second arc...unless of course the heroes do it, in which case it's perfectly okay. I don't know, it just didn't sit right with me.

Darkstalker’s defeat really rubbed me the wrong way. Like rubbing scales in the opposite direction they’re supposed to flow. 

Darkstalker needed to be stopped, yes. Darkstalker was dangerous, also yes. 

But did he need to be completely wiped from reality and replaced with a different person? No...no I feel that’s just worse than death. Especially after talking about the evils of changing someone against their will. And I dislike Tui’s idea of having Peacemaker live his entire life ignorant of his past life.

Your art, however, is a pleasant alternative to what Tui currently has as canon. And I can’t wait to view more of this AU

holy crap that is good dialogue, I really hope that peacemaker gets his own book in the future where the pot is in finding out who he really was(Darkstalkers). on top of that, you really did give me an idea on how fast dragons age. thanks. *has an idea for a book*. hmmmmm. I also love his personality. as far as I'm concerned you just described my entire life into this one dragon.
