===[[The Dragonet Prophecy]]===
Peril came to the Sky Kingdom, hatched to her mother [[Kestrel]], her father is unknown. The [[Dragon Eggs|egg]] she hatched from held twins - but while Peril was still unborn, she absorbed all of her [[Peril's Brother|twin brother's]] fire, leaving him with none, and herself with a [[Special Dragons|surplus amount]]. Because of this quantity, Kestrel was banned from the breeding program, in case she produced any more offspring as such. Queen Scarlet told Kestrel to sacrifice one of the [[Dragonets|dragonets]], and then she and her offspring would then be spared. The SkyWing did so, but Queen Scarlet then decided to put Kestrel on trial, for seemingly no specific reason. Kestrel then attempted to flee with Peril; although Kestrel could not come in contact with Peril, her talons were burned as a result of Peril having too much fire. Kestrel couldn't go back for Peril as SkyWing soldiers were coming down upon her. The dragonets had noted that their SkyWing minder had odd burn scars on her palms, but had never asked her where they came from.

After Peril was taken back to the queen's palace, and raised into a young and dangerous dragon, [[Queen Scarlet]] told Peril lies about her past to cover up for Kestrel's flight. She told Peril that she herself burned her twin dragonet to death while they were still unhatched, and that Kestrel was dead. The queen also deceived Peril into thinking she had to eat certain [[Black Rocks|black rocks]] everyday to survive having too much fire, thus assuring that she'd have to stay in the palace and not become a possible threat to the kingdom if she found out the truth about Kestrel. The black rock story, however, was also a lie - Scarlet had been putting a poison in Peril's food whenever she ceased to eat the black rocks, and when she ate them [[File:DSCF3268.png|thumb|Clay vs Fj

The queen also deceived Peril into thinking she had to eat certain [[Black Rocks|black rocks]] everyday to survive having too much fire, thus assuring that she'd have to stay in the palace and not become a possible threat to the kingdom if she found out the truth about Kestrel. When Peril stopped eating the rocks, Scarlet put poison in Peril's food, making her sick. When Peril continued eating the rocks, Scarlet removed the poison.
]]again, Scarlet would stop putting poison in Peril's food. As a very young dragonet, Peril once tried ''not ''eating the rocks so Scarlet would tell her more about her mother, but she was sickened by the uncured poison Scarlet had been injecting in her food. Peril's scales were overly heated, so she could burn through any substance -- making her invulnerable yet cursed (as she couldn't touch any other dragon without burning him/her). Due to her invulnerability and ability to easily burn opponents to death, she was raised by Queen Scarlet to become her arena champion.
 
Later, when [[Clay]] was taken prisoner, Peril befriended him and began to develop strong feelings for him because he was the only dragon who really understood her feelings, in addition to being the only dragon who could touch her fiery scales (Clay was a dragon born from a blood-red egg, so he was immune to fire). When Clay told her that when he hatched, he was supposedly so vicious towards the other eggs that the guardians had to corral him in the river until they hatched (although this was just his [[Bigwings|bigwings]] instincts kicking in), Peril suggested that maybe they were both born to kill. Inside the arena, Peril attended to Clays' scratches and wounds and also helped him rescue his friends. During Kestrel's trial, Peril hid with the help of Clay because she wasn't allowed to be there but she wanted to.

Peril had told her mother "I'm not ready. Maybe some day we'll find each other again." Kestrel flew away, only to be murdered by [[Blister]] and [[Morrowseer]] in the [[Kingdom of the Sea]].
Peril was visited by [[Queen Scarlet|Scarlet]] with the [[Dreamvisitor]] and tries to sneak into Burn's Fortress to rescue her while the [[Outclaws]] are fighting Burn's soldiers. [[Sunny]] runs to her and Peril asks about [[Clay]]. Sunny truthfully tells her all Clay said about her, but Peril is disappointed, and horrified to learn that [[Kestrel]] is dead. Sunny begs her to help stop the fighting, and Peril approaches the battle. Peril tells the SandWings that she is taking the fortress, and they shouldn't stop her. Fearing her fire, the dragons let her. Peril finds where they're keeping Scarlet, then helps Sunny escape before freeing Scarlet. The two of them fly away, but Scarlet then leaves Peril and flies away.

Peril's talons and scales are of such an extreme temperature that they can burn through anything, even fireproof metal. However, she cannot burn Clay, as he was hatched from an egg the color of dragons' blood. She tends to be moody and is awkward at first, probably due to never really talking to anyone else (except [[Osprey]]).  
Peril arrives at the gathering to end the war, and runs to Clay when he is bitten by a [[Dragonbite Viper]]. She furiously burns away the poisoned flesh, keeping him alive but giving him a limp. Sunny wonders if Peril is the Wings of Fire.


She later goes looking for Scarlet, but Clay mentions that he'll invite her to the Dragonet School to give her a home.
Despite this, she is not a cold-blooded killer, just someone who has nothing else to live for. She believes it's what she was born to do, and that she can't do anything else.

She is shown to be sympathetic and caring at times, particularly to Clay.

Biography

Peril hatched to her mother, Kestrel, and an unknown father. The egg she hatched from held twins - but while Peril was still unborn, she absorbed all of her twin brother's fire, leaving him with none, and herself with a surplus amount. Because of this quantity, Kestrel was banned from the breeding program, in case she produced any more offspring as such. 

Queen Scarlet told Kestrel to sacrifice one of the dragonets, and then she and her remaining offspring would then be spared. The SkyWing did so, but Queen Scarlet then decided to put Kestrel on trial, for seemingly no specific reason. Kestrel then attempted to flee with Peril; although Kestrel's talons were burned as a result of Peril having too much fire. Kestrel had no choice but to flee, as the SkyWing guards were approaching.

The dragonets had noted that their SkyWing minder had odd burn scars on her palms, but had never asked her where they came from.

Clay and Peril

After Peril was taken back to the queen's palace, and raised into a young and dangerous dragon, Queen Scarlet told Peril lies about her past to cover up for Kestrel's flight. She told Peril that she herself burned her twin dragonet to death while they were still unhatched, and that her mother had tried to kill her, but Scarlet had saved her and punished her mother with death. The queen also deceived Peril into thinking she had to eat certain black rocks everyday to survive having too much fire, thus assuring that she'd have to stay in the palace and not become a possible threat to the kingdom if she found out the truth about Kestrel. When Peril stopped eating the rocks, Scarlet put poison in Peril's food, making her sick. When Peril continued eating the rocks, Scarlet removed the poison.

Peril could burn through any substance -- making her invulnerable yet cursed (as she couldn't touch any other dragon without burning him/her). Due to her invulnerability and ability to easily burn opponents to death, she was raised by Queen Scarlet to become her arena champion. Peril killed dragons without second thoughts, becoming "a monster."

Later, when Clay was taken prisoner, Peril befriended him and began to develop strong feelings for him because he was the only dragon who really understood her feelings, in addition to being the only dragon who could touch her fiery scales (Clay was a dragon born from a blood-red egg, so he was immune to fire). When Clay told her that when he hatched, he was supposedly so vicious towards the other eggs that the guardians had to corral him in the river until they hatched (although this was just his bigwings instincts), Peril suggested that maybe they were both born to kill.

Inside the arena, Peril attended to Clays' scratches and wounds and also helped him rescue his friends. During Kestrel's trial, Peril hid with the help of Clay because she wasn't allowed to be there, although she wanted to. She learned the truth about her mother, and angrily called upon the Champion's Shield so she could try to protect her mother from execution.

Quotes

"You killed my brother. You left me here. And it's your fault my friend is dead. I might not want you dead, but I don't want to know you."

"I'm your friend! You don't need them!"

"I'm not, well... It's not fair! The others can have any dragon! I only want you!"

"No one wants me, No one can even touch me. You saw that. I was born with too much fire. Usually when dragons like me hatch, the SkyWing dragonets like me hatch the SkyWings drop them off at the highest mountain peak. That's what my mother was going to do, but Queen Scarlet saved me and killed her to punish her."

"I had this whole plan. Where I saved you after her (Kestrel) and you liked me most of all."

Trivia

  • According to Kestrel, Peril hatched a year before the Dragonets of Destiny, who were all six years old, therefore she is a year older. Dragons are considered adults at age seven - Peril could now be regarded as a SkyWing instead of a dragonet.
