'''Mayfly''' is described as a brown female [[MudWings|MudWing]] with a wide, flat head. Her back leg and half her tail are covered with frostbreath scars, and she has two claws missing. She appears to harbor a dislike for [[IceWings]], most probably due to her injuries. She is a doctor in the small city of [[Possibility]] where [[Prince Winter|Winter]], [[Qibli]] and [[Moonwatcher|Moon]] went to to help [[Kinkajou]]. She was said to be the best doctor in all of [[Possibility]], but it is unknown how many other doctors there are.

Biography

The Jade Mountain Prophecy

Winter Turning

After Kinkajou was attacked by Chameleon in his powerful NightWing form Shapeshifter, her friends sought out a doctor in Possibility. A dragon named Meerkat led them to Mayfly, whom he proclaimed was the best doctor in Possibility. Moonwatcher brought Kinkajou into Mayfly's office while the others waited outside. While they were waiting, Hailstorm overheard Mayfly telling Moonwatcher that she initially thought Kinkajou was an IceWing, as her scales were white. He stuck his head through the window, retorting that Kinkajou looked nothing like an IceWing, and Mayfly angrily snapped at Hailstorm and Winter for blocking the light, placing a foul-smelling jar on the windowsill for emphasis. After seeing Kinkajou, Mayfly was doubtful that a dragon could have caused the RainWing's injuries. She eventually accepted their story and took Kinkajou and Moonwatcher inside her workplace.
