Biography

Deserter

Quicksand was the head chef of Queen Oasis's kitchen and was portrayed as an extremely loyal and considerate dragon. He and Ostrich, Six-Claws mother, were reported to be partners and to have married. He unfortunately died of the same disease as King Char, which swept through the palace of the Kingdom of Sand, a couple years before Queen Oasis was killed and the War of SandWing Succession started.

Darkness of Dragons

Palm thought about Quicksand for a moment when she fled from the palace. At first, she had a hallucination, thinking to herself how Quicksand would be disappointed in her for leaving dates out in the sun for too long, but she quickly shook it off, remembering that her old boss had been dead for years.
