'''Hvitur''' was a young, pale, moon-silver male [[IceWings|IceWing]] with a long body and deep, arctic blue eyes{{Ref|TDPp}}. As a member of the [[Talons of Peace]], he was a [[Dragons|dragon]] who believed in and held hope for a positive outcome of [[The Dragonet Prophecy (Prophecy)|The Dragonet Prophecy]]. He was also supposed to be one of the [[Guardians of the Dragonets]], but unfortunately he was caught on his way back to their [[Claws of the Clouds Mountains|secret cave]] and brutally killed by [[Princess Burn|Burn]], who shredded his wing membranes and then stabbed his skull with her poisonous tail barb before throwing him and the prophesied [[The SkyWing Dragonet|SkyWing egg]] over the edge of a cliff before he could return to the secret cave under the mountain in the [[SkyWings]]' territory.
'''Hvitur''' was an adult male [[IceWing]] who was introduced in the prologue of ''[[The Dragonet Prophecy (book)|The Dragonet Prophecy]]''. He was a member of the [[Talons of Peace]] and was assigned to be one of the [[Talons of Peace#Guardians of the Dragonets|guardians of the dragonets]]. He was killed by [[Burn]] alongside the prophesied [[SkyWing]] [[Unnamed characters#SkyWings|egg]] during his escape from [[Queen Scarlet]]'s [[SkyWing palace|palace]].


==Personality==
== Description ==
Hvitur seemed to be a dragon similar to [[Asha]]; one that believed in the goodness of dragons and had great faith in the prophecy coming true. He disliked violence and saw the [[War of SandWing Succession|war]] as unnecessary bloodshed. The other guardians may have relied on Hvitur and Asha to rear the dragonets as dragons, with [[Dune]] and [[Kestrel]] as only trainers, and [[Webs]] as the dragonets' teacher, which ended up being a serious problem.   
Hvitur had moon-pale, cold silver scales, silver wings, blue eyes, and a long body.{{Ref|TDPp}}
==Biography==
===Pre-Series===
Hvitur, along with Kestrel, Webs, Dune, and Asha, was charged with the task to find and bring the [[The Dragonets of Destiny|Dragonets of Destiny]]'s eggs to the caves under the mountain, along with the duty to protect and raise them for the task of fulfilling the prophecy about them that [[Morrowseer]] had foretold. Unfortunately, Hvitur died trying to deliver the SkyWing egg (which he stole), and Asha died of her wounds shortly after delivering [[Clay]]'s egg.


===''[[The Dragonet Prophecy]]''===
== Personality ==
In the prologue, during the Talons of Peace's quest to steal the dragonets' eggs, Hvitur was sent to retrieve the SkyWing egg. He broke into the [[Queen Ruby's Palace|SkyWing Palace]] to steal the prophesied "largest egg on the mountain high." Unfortunately, on the way out, Burn and two of her guards pursued him, knowing it was the dragon [[Ex-Queen Scarlet|Scarlet]] had warned Burn about. They catch him and drop him in front of Burn and she orders the two soldiers to bind scorching hot chains around Hvitur's jaws, preventing him from using his freezing-death-breath. During that time, she carelessly played with the SkyWing egg while watching Hvitur plead desperately for its safety. This proved his faith in the prophecy, as well as his willingness to do whatever must be done to make it come true.
Hvitur had deep faith in [[The Dragonet Prophecy (prophecy)|the prophecy]] and argued for the lives of those lost in the [[War of SandWing Succession|war]]. He also believed that no one would harm a [[Dragons|dragon]] egg.{{Ref|TDPp}}


Annoyed and angry, Burn dramatically dropped the egg over the cliff, pretending that it slipped through her talons and proceeded to torment him, saying that even if the dragonets ''do'' save the world, it would be far too late for him. She shredded Hvitur's wings after the IceWing desperately tried to leap after the egg. She then stabbed him in the back of the skull with her venom-tipped tail, before flinging him off the cliff. His screams stopped long before he hit the ground.

Hvitur, [[Kestrel]], [[Webs]], [[Dune]], and [[Asha]] were in charge of bringing the dragonets of destiny's eggs to the [[Claws of the Clouds Mountains|caves under the mountain]], along with the duty to protect and raise them for the job of fulfilling the prophecy [[Morrowseer]] had foretold. Unfortunately, Asha died of her wounds shortly after delivering [[Clay]]'s egg, and Hvitur was in the middle of escaping the SkyWing palace when Burn caught and killed him, stabbing him in the back of his head with her tail barb. Burn also destroyed the SkyWing egg he was supposed to deliver.

=== The Dragonet Prophecy ===
==== ''[[The Dragonet Prophecy (book)|The Dragonet Prophecy]]'' ====
In the prologue, Hvitur had broken into the SkyWing palace and stolen the prophesied egg. The largest guards pursued him, knowing it was the dragon Scarlet had warned Burn about. He was caught, and Burn had hot chains wrapped around his snout, preventing him from using his frostbreath. Hvitur pleaded for her not to break the SkyWing egg.


Some time later, Kestrel found Hvitur's corpse at the bottom of the cliff, along with a few fragments of the shattered SkyWing egg. She entered the cave to tell Webs the news, and he informed her that Asha had died as well. Kestrel then stated that she should have gone to the SkyWing Palace to steal the egg herself, instead of sending Hvitur. Webs then said that he would get an egg somewhere else to replace the broken SkyWing egg. He ended up going to the [[Rainforest Kingdom|rainforest]] to steal a [[RainWings|RainWing]] egg without the RainWings even noticing. Kestrel said that it was a horrible idea, but Webs replied, saying that they had to do something about the prophecy. He also said that in eight years, the Talons of Peace would come looking for the five dragonets. It ended with Webs saying that the prophecy had said five dragonets and that they were going to make it come true, whatever it took.

In the prologue, Queen Scarlet mentioned that an IceWing thief broke into the palace and stole an [[Dragon Eggs|egg]], but was then killed by Burn. Though not mentioned by name, the scenario perfectly matches that of Hvitur's death; it appeared that it was almost definitely him that she was talking about.


==Quotes==
When the dragonets escaped the SkyWing palace near the end of the second act, Kestrel indirectly mentioned Hvitur when she talked about how [[Peril]] was not the "wings of sky" in the prophecy.

==Trivia==
== Trivia ==
*Hvitur was the first dragon shown in the series and the first IceWing featured, as well as the first dragon and IceWing to die in the Wings of Fire series.
* The reason his name was Hvitur was because [[Tui]] was saving her favorite names for the characters that survived longer, like [[Winter]].{{Ref|Event|https://web.archive.org/web/20150607232314/http://wingsoffire.scholastic.com/books/wings-of-fire-book-one-the-dragonet-prophecy/read/1#prologue}}
*''Hvitur'' means "white" in Icelandic. It is also a type of horse native to Iceland.
* Hvitur is the only named character from ''The Dragonet Prophecy'' not to appear or be mentioned in its [[The Dragonet Prophecy (graphic novel)|graphic novel]] adaptation.
*Due to Hvitur's attitude towards the prophecy, he most likely would have been a parenting figure to the dragonets of destiny, along with Asha.
**However, it's unknown how he would have treated [[Starflight]] due to the ongoing hatred between the IceWings and NightWings.
*He was only alive for five pages.
*Hvitur was one of the two guardians that the dragonets never met, the other being [[Asha]] the MudWing.
*[[Tui T. Sutherland|Tui]] stated that the reason his name was Hvitur was that she was saving the names she liked for the characters that survived longer<ref>The Dragonet Prophecy (Annotated) Chapter Prologue[https://web.archive.org/web/20150701031653/http://wingsoffire.scholastic.com/books/wings-of-fire-book-one-the-dragonet-prophecy/read/1#prologue]</ref>.
*His name is pronounced ''hi-vee-tur.''
*He is the only true IceWing known to have been in the Talons of Peace seeing as the other was [[Chameleon|Cirrus]], who was merely one of Chameleon's many masks.
*While most IceWings are cold, sarcastic, and sometimes snobbish, Hvitur is quite an exception, since he fiercely believed in the prophecy and fate. Other IceWing exceptions are [[Lynx]] and [[Ex-Prince Winter|Winter]].
*The prologue is different for the graphic novel arc, with the prologue for the [[The Dragonet Prophecy (Graphic Novel)|graphic novel]] being the dragonets hatching, instead of Hvitur's death and the breaking of the prophecy SkyWing's egg.

— Hvitur to Burn, The Dragonet Prophecy

Hvitur was an adult male IceWing who was introduced in the prologue of The Dragonet Prophecy. He was a member of the Talons of Peace and was assigned to be one of the guardians of the dragonets. He was killed by Burn alongside the prophesied SkyWing egg during his escape from Queen Scarlet's palace.

Description

Hvitur had moon-pale, cold silver scales, silver wings, blue eyes, and a long body.[1]

Personality

Hvitur had deep faith in the prophecy and argued for the lives of those lost in the war. He also believed that no one would harm a dragon egg.[1]

Biography

Pre-Series

Hvitur, Kestrel, Webs, Dune, and Asha were in charge of bringing the dragonets of destiny's eggs to the caves under the mountain, along with the duty to protect and raise them for the job of fulfilling the prophecy Morrowseer had foretold. Unfortunately, Asha died of her wounds shortly after delivering Clay's egg, and Hvitur was in the middle of escaping the SkyWing palace when Burn caught and killed him, stabbing him in the back of his head with her tail barb. Burn also destroyed the SkyWing egg he was supposed to deliver.


The Dragonet Prophecy

In the prologue, Hvitur had broken into the SkyWing palace and stolen the prophesied egg. The largest guards pursued him, knowing it was the dragon Scarlet had warned Burn about. He was caught, and Burn had hot chains wrapped around his snout, preventing him from using his frostbreath. Hvitur pleaded for her not to break the SkyWing egg.

Burn dramatically dropped the egg over the cliff, pretending that it slipped through her talons, and proceeded to torment him, saying that even if the dragonets did save the world, it would be far too late for him. She shredded Hvitur's wings after the IceWing desperately tried to leap after the egg. She then stabbed him in the back of the skull with her venom-tipped tail before flinging him off the cliff. His screams stopped long before he hit the ground.

Sometime later, Kestrel found Hvitur's corpse at the cliff's bottom, along with a few fragments of the shattered SkyWing egg.

When the dragonets escaped the SkyWing palace near the end of the second act, Kestrel indirectly mentioned Hvitur when she talked about how Peril was not the "wings of sky" in the prophecy.


The Jade Mountain Prophecy

Hvitur was mentioned indirectly by the Talons of Peace when they talked about all known IceWings in the Talons in a conversation.

In the prologue, Scarlet mentioned that an IceWing thief broke into the palace and stole an egg but was killed by Burn.
