Jerboa

Template:Infobox CharacterJerboa was an animus SandWing who lived during Darkstalker's time. Little is known of him, as he never appeared, but was only mentioned in the Darkstalker version of the NightWing guide to the tribes. He was said to have fled the SandWing court, and was either killed or he became a fugitive. Darkstalker learned about him by listening to Arctic worry about him in his thoughts when he went over the list of the other known animus dragons in Pyrrhia. He may have been the last SandWing animus, and is also the only known SandWing animus.

He is commonly theorized to have made the Eye of Onyx and other SandWing treasures, though this is not confirmed. After the fall of Agate Mountain, Queen Vigilance and her tribe fled to the volcanic island that appears in the main arc. It is apparent in The Dark Secret that in NightWing scrolls the Dreamvisitors were attributed to a SandWing animus, and there was a dreamvisitor in the SandWing treasure as well. In the Dragonet Prophecy it states She'll have the power of wings of fire, indicating that the NightWings know of the Wings of Fire inscription on the Eye Of Onyx. It is likely that, wanting to get rid of Darkstalker's presence, Vigilance exchanged tribe secrets with Jerboa, including animus-touched objects.

It is a possibility that he is the one Onyx was talking to at the end of Winter Turning. Since her name is Onyx, she might be a direct or distant descendant of Jerboa and as an animus, he might have enchanted something to make himself immortal, explaining why Onyx referred to him as an old dragon.
