"What a day, lizard. You have no idea how important I am to Queen Burn. Wait until I find her treasure in that spiky human city! She'll probably give me a palace of my own. HAHA! I'll burn all those humans to ashes. It'll be GREAT!"
— Sandstorm to Sky, Dragonslayer

Sandstorm was an adult male SandWing who was introduced in Dragonslayer. He was formerly a general under Burn and resided in the SandWing stronghold until he was poisoned and killed by Wren in order to rescue Sky.

Description

Sandstorm was an enormous SandWing.[1] He wore armor[2] and a key around his neck.[3]

Personality

In Dragonslayer, Wren described Sandstorm as obnoxious,[4] annoying, and a total lunatic when he threatened the Indestructible City.[5] He appeared to not be liked by other dragons.[6] He had a loud,[7] annoying,[8] bellowing laugh,[4] and was shown ordering Smolder around, which seemed to make the latter upset.[9] He was loyal to Burn and was willing to capture Sky to give him to her. Sandstorm also seemed to be very full of himself, shown when he was boasting about how important he is and how Burn will promote him when he gives her Sky.[2]

Biography

The Dragonet Prophecy

The Dark Secret
In the prologue, Reed spotted a group of Burn's SandWings fighting IceWings. He referred to one of them as the "SandWing general", who was most likely Sandstorm.
The Brightest Night
Sandstorm was placed in charge of the defense of Burn's Stronghold while Burn was off searching for the dragonets of destiny. Sandstorm was killed in a battle against Thorn and the Outclaws in their attempt to rescue Sunny from Princess Burn. Camel told Smolder about Sandstorm's death while Smolder was showing Sunny the old treasure chambers.

Legends

Dragonslayer
General Sandstorm was threatening the Indestructible City, dodging whatever the humans shot at him and laughing. He had attacked the Indestructible City four times before. Later on, he was shown to have locked Sky into his room with the intention of giving him to Queen Burn as a gift. Wren poisoned Sandstorm's cinnamon milk with rat poison to free Sky, and Sandstorm died from it while fighting an Outclaw, who swaggered away from Sandstorm's defeat, looking confused but very pleased with himself.
