| '''Icicle''' is a young female [[IceWing]] who was introduced in ''[[Moon Rising]]''. She is the sister of [[Winter]] and [[Hailstorm]], the niece of Queen [[Glacier]], and a potential heir to the IceWing [[Dragon royalty|throne]]. She is a former student of [[Jade Mountain Academy]] as a member of the [[Gold Winglet]].
| |
| | |
| She escaped [[Jade Mountain]] and fled to the [[Rainforest Kingdom]], but after killing an unknown [[NightWing]], she was arrested by [[Glory]] and is currently awaiting trial in the [[Ice Kingdom]].

| == Appearance ==
| |
| Icicle has gleaming white scales.{{Ref|MR|179}} She is pristine,{{Ref|WT|28}} with scales that are more white than anybody else's.{{Ref|WT|101}} She has arctic,{{Ref|WT|101}} pale blue eyes{{Ref|MR|259}}. She is haughty-looking{{Ref|MR|15}}, with a smooth, high-pitched voice{{Ref|MR|136}}. Her claws are sharp, her teeth gleam, and her spines are pristine even after clubbing a walrus to death. She plunged into the frigid ocean six times a day to make her scales shine before attending Jade Mountain Academy.{{Ref|WT|101}} She is larger than <span>Winter</span>{{Ref|MR|274}}<span> and most [[RainWings]].</span>{{Ref|WT|57}} | |
| | |
| == Personality ==
| |
| Icicle is fierce and proud. These traits were likely honed by her parents, [[Tundra]] and [[Narwhal]], who had high expectations of her that she lived up to for the most part. They hoped that she would one day challenge Queen Glacier for the IceWing throne. She seems to be concerned about her appearance, wishing that she looked more menacing. She appears very secretive, hiding dangerous plots from even her own brother. She is also vicious and determined, having no moral qualms with killing or harming others to get what she wants. Icicle does not seem to like any dragon that is not an IceWing, and similarly to Winter, believes that IceWings are superior to other tribes.
| |
| | |
| According to Winter, Icicle is brilliant, dangerous, and prefers to hunt alone. He thought that she would have rescued [[Hailstorm]] herself without asking for assistance.{{Ref|WT|13}} She is ferocious.{{Ref|WT|57}} Although [[Moonwatcher]] would not have acted the way Icicle did, and agreed that Icicle needed to be stopped, she understood Icicle's choices and did not believe that she was evil. Moonwatcher also described Icicle's mind as very cold and intense.{{Ref|WT|78}} She is stubborn and fearless, and Winter found it easy to imagine her angrily burning herself to stay awake.{{Ref|WT|103}}
| |
| | |
| Despite this, Icicle sometimes shows a softer side, such as when she feels guilty for failing Hailstorm, and puts herself through a lot of pain to avoid watching him die in front of her. She evidently deeply cared about Hailstorm, even resorting to killing other dragons to try to save him.

| |heading = ''[[Moon Rising]]''
| |
| |content = She joined the Jade Mountain Academy at Queen Glacier's insistence, and became clawmates with Sora. When Moon came back from talking to [[Stonemover]] on her first night, she heard a dragon was speaking to [[Scarlet]] with a [[dreamvisitor]]. [[Darkstalker]] didn't want to tell Moon who was contacting Queen Scarlet, because he knew that future ended in her death. Sora attempted to kill Icicle twice, killing [[Carnelian]] and [[Bigtail]], and injuring [[Tamarin]] in the process. Icicle then tried to kill Sora and [[Starflight]]. Moonwatcher figured out that she was the one who was contacting Scarlet, but Icicle said that she was doing this to get her brother Hailstorm back. She tried to convince Winter that she was doing this for Hailstorm, but Winter objected and fought back. She then escaped out of a nearby window, her next target being Queen Glory.

| |heading = ''[[Winter Turning]]''
| |
| |content = Icicle was found on the destroyed [[NightWing island]] with bloodshot eyes, having not slept in four or five days. She did this because she didn't want to hear Scarlet tell her that she had failed and that her brother was dead by dreamvisitor. She mentions her plans to assassinate Glory, and [[Kinkajou]] unexpectedly tackles Icicle, pinning her to the ground. Before Icicle can kill Kinkajou, [[Deathbringer]] and Queen Glory arrive and tranquilize Icicle, who desperately screams at Winter that she needs to stay awake, because Ex-Queen Scarlet might appear in her dreams. She is arrested and transported to the healers' hut, unconscious.
| |
| | |
| Before the effect of the tranquilizer dart sinks in, she begs her brother to keep her from falling asleep. Winter tells her to make a deal with Scarlet, saying that if he kills Glory, the former [[SkyWing]] queen will release his brother. Icicle does so. Moon reads her mind, trying to learn where Scarlet is. She also finds out about the deal, but she does not believe Winter will go through with it.
| |
| | |
| She is later seen flying with Queen Glacier back to the Ice Palace after Glory allows her to return to the Ice Kingdom. Her punishment was up to Glacier, on the condition that there would be a cutting of the [[Animus magic#IceWing Gifts|Moon Globe Tree]] for the RainWings and NightWings.

| | |
| == Relationships==
| |
| === [[Hailstorm]] ===
| |
| Icicle seemed to care a lot more about Hailstorm rather than Winter, grieving for him as well as feeling guilty for failing him. Her love for Hailstorm was the motive behind working for Scarlet, as she would do anything to get him back.
| |
| | |
| === [[Winter]] ===
| |
| Icicle cared little for Winter, favoring Hailstorm instead. She called him useless and a disappointment, and also seemed to have absolutely no emotional connection to him, contrarily to Winter, who cares about her even though she always insults him.
