'''Addax''' is a male [[SandWings|SandWing]], who was formerly a member of the [[Outclaws]], a group of SandWings working against the warring SandWing sisters and keeping the [[Scorpion Den]] in order. He previously served as a soldier in [[Princess Burn|Burn]]'s army, something noted by [[Six-Claws]] in reference to his "military habits" such as calling his commanders “sir” with a shred of irritation. After betraying the Outclaws by kidnapping [[Princess Sunny|Sunny]] for Burn, it is assumed he rejoined Burn's army and reunited with his family.

Addax appears to be highly respectful of Burn, as [[Sunny]] thought when she saw him "bowing and scraping behind Burn" in the [[Sky Kingdom]].{{Ref|TBN|91}} He is violent and aggressive, as he took several extreme measures just to prove his loyalty to Burn.

Sunny recalled seeing Addax at the feast [[Ex-Queen Scarlet|Queen Scarlet]] was hosting for Burn. Sunny stated that he was a bit of a tail-kisser, as Addax was noted to bow down very low to the princess as he saw her or talked to her. He didn't have his scar then, which is why Sunny hadn't recognized him at first.

Addax first appeared in front of Six-Claws, who was escorting Sunny to [[Queen Thorn|Thorn]], and he questioned who she was. Six-Claws dismissed him but Addax watched them until they were out of his view. Sunny thought that he looked familiar, but decided that she would have remembered his scar.

He later deliberately set a fire and claimed that there was a Dragonbite Viper to draw Thorn away from Sunny. While she was distracted, Addax used [[Ostrich]], Six-Claws' daughter, as a hostage - her life in exchange for Sunny's. Addax wanted to give Sunny to Burn so she would allow him to return to her army and his family. After hearing this, Sunny agreed, but Six-Claws was reluctant to give Sunny up. Six-Claws eventually gave in, and Addax made up a lie for Six-Claws to tell Thorn (that Sunny decided she didn't want a criminal thug for a mother and ran for the hills) but Sunny protested, telling Six-Claws to tell Thorn she was visiting her friends and would be back soon. Six-Claws then told Thorn the truth, and Thorn came barging into Burn's stronghold to save Sunny.

Biography

The Dragonet Prophecy

The Brightest Night

Addax was first introduced when Six-Claws was escorting Sunny to Thorn, and he questioned who she was. Six-Claws dismissed him, and Addax watched them until they were out of his view. Sunny thought that he looked familiar, but decided that she would have remembered his scar.

He later deliberately set fire to the orphanage and claimed that there was a dragonbite viper to draw Thorn away from Sunny. While she was distracted, Addax used Ostrich, Six-Claws' daughter, as a bargaining chip. He offered her life in exchange for Sunny, who he wanted to give to Burn. Addax wanted Burn to allow him to return to her army and his family. After hearing this, Sunny agreed, but Six-Claws was reluctant to give Sunny up. Six-Claws eventually gave in, and Addax made up a lie for Six-Claws to tell Thorn, that Sunny decided she did not want a criminal thug for a mother and ran for the hills. Sunny protested, telling Six-Claws to tell Thorn she was visiting her friends and would be back soon.

Sunny recognized Addax as one of the SandWings at Scarlet's feast for Burn.

When Addax and Sunny arrived at Burn's stronghold, Burn was out looking for "a certain quintet of dragonets," and they were greeted by Smolder. Addax told him that he wanted his reward for capturing Sunny, but Smolder told him to wait in the barracks until Burn returned. It was never revealed whether or not Addax received his reward.

Thorn wanted to take revenge on Addax for stealing Sunny, but she defended him. Sunny told her that he had his reasons and that it was not worth it, saying "I'm alright, aren't I?"
