Pheasant

"So from then on, the bigwings takes care of all the others. Some of them can be pretty bossy or too weak, but we got a good one. I mean, you would have been a good one too, I'm sure..."

— Pheasant, about bigwings to Clay.

Template:Charbox Pheasant is a female MudWing, and is described with light brown eyes. She is one of the six siblings of Clay, as well as the third-hatched dragonet of Cattail, her mother, with Asha being her aunt, and her and her siblings' father is still unknown, and will most likely remain unknown. She does not attend Jade Mountain Academy, while her sister Sora and brothers Umber and Marsh do (although Sora and Umber have recently left). Instead Pheasant stayed in the Mud Kingdom with her brother, Reed.

History

Pre-Series

Pheasant hatched along with Reed, Sora, Marsh, Crane, and Umber. She was raised with Reed standing in for bigwings due to Clay being absent and sold by Cattail to the Talons of Peace for two cows in order to fulfill the Dragonet Prophecy.

The Dragonet Prophecy

Clay meeting his siblings

Near the end of the book, Clay made his way back to the Mud Kingdom. His siblings encountered him and were overjoyed to find him. They helped him make peace with himself, and despite protests, unwillingly let him go. Pheasant even states that maybe Clay is their bigwings, which he is.

The Dark Secret

In the prologue, the IceWings attack, and she comes to Sora's rescue. The troop escapes, and Pheasant said she gained interest in and started to read about the prophecy after they found out Clay was part of it, being the 'wings of the earth'. In the end, she hopes that Clay will end the war soon.

The Brightest Night

Pheasant and her siblings are seen when Sunny and Clay go to the Mud Kingdom to send a message to Burn. Pheasant is wary to go along with the MudWings' planned attack on the IceWings to drive them out.

Moon Rising

Umber mentions Pheasant and Reed doing some work for Queen Moorhen.

• Pheasant and her sibling, Reed, are mentioned by Umber to be doing some work for Queen Moorhen.
