Dune

Template:Infobox Dune was a "three-taloned" pale gold SandWing and a former member of the Talons of Peace and the Outclaws, acting as one of the five Guardians of the Dragonets.

Biography

Pre-Series

Dune had lost one of his legs and incurably mangled his wing before the beginning of the series. His injuries most likely came from the war, as he expressed great contempt for it. It is still unknown which side of the war he fought on before joining the Talons of Peace.

Dune was assigned, along with Kestrel, Webs, Asha, and Hvitur, to steal and protect the Dragonets of Destiny to fulfill the Prophecy. During this time, he resided in the Scorpion Den, and was trusted by Thorn with the hidden location of her egg, who ended up to be Sunny. When Dune learned it was due to hatch on the Brightest Night, he stole it to complete the prophecy, destroying all of Thorn's trust.

The Dragonet Prophecy

Hvitur was killed by Burn while attempting to bring the SkyWing egg (which was smashed to pieces), and Asha died of inflicted wounds after being caught in a battle between Blaze and Blister's forces while delivering the MudWing egg to the cave. These events left only him, Kestrel, and Webs to raise Clay, Tsunami, Sunny, Starflight, and Glory.

As a guardian, Dune taught the dragonets skills of hunting and survival. He tended to be a bit harsh on Glory, though not as much as Kestrel. He was kind to Sunny, and made sure to teach her more due to her disabilities (not having the scorpion like stinger that most SandWings have). After the visit from Morrowseer, he was the second most reluctant to kill Glory. Webs had been horrified about the idea of having to kill Glory, and was the first to deny participation in her murder.

Later, Clay and Tsunami escaped the cave and accidentally led Queen Scarlet and her soldiers to the dragonets. During the battle, Dune was pinned by Scarlet, and she violently snapped his neck. Sunny was distraught over this.

Appearance

Dune had typical SandWing colors, however, he had lost a leg and mangled his wing. In The Hidden Kingdom, Glory notices several SandWings with permanent injuries at Blaze's Fortress; perhaps suggesting that Dune fought alongside them.
