Jerboa yearned for freedom and had always wanted a dragonet of her own, though Queen [[Scorpion]] had kept her away from other dragons.{{Ref|TDG|263}} Her desire for having a dragonet was twisted, as she had no remorse for age regressing Jerboa III repeatedly and completely manipulating her own daughters. Jerboa desired perfectionism, which resulted in casting many personality spells on her dragonet and disowning her first daughter, Jerboa II, although part of this could be due to her losing her soul. At the time of her longing for a daughter, she had made many major animus spells. It is unknown whether she made any effort to protect her soul, even though all the spells she put on Jerboa III may have been related to her losing her soul.

She used to have second thoughts about the spells she put on her daughter, but soon had no regrets. She was lazy and insensitive, enchanting other dragons to do what she wanted or to do things for her own entertainment. This extended to the point where she erased her own daughter's memories and forced her to become her mother's puppet, repeating the process of erasing her memory throughout the eleven centuries they have been alive. This shows that Jerboa was ultimately selfish and presumably thought she could control everything with animus magic. This turned on her when Jerboa III froze her when finding out about the spells she was casting on her.
 
Before presumably losing her soul, Jerboa made many wise enchantments such as the [[Eye of Onyx]].

Jerboa was commissioned by an unknown SandWing queen to create the Eye of Onyx — an enchanted necklace with an onyx set in the pendant — to keep the queen in power. Instead, Jerboa enchanted the Eye to choose rightful queens regardless of the royal bloodline and kill those who are not worthy who try to take the throne. She used her power for Queen [[Scorpion]] until Scorpion asked for things that would cause large harm to other tribes, including the SkyWings.

Biography

Pre-Series
Eye of Onyx

Jerboa was commissioned by an unknown SandWing queen to create the Eye of Onyx — an enchanted necklace with an onyx set in the pendant — to keep the queen in power. Instead, Jerboa enchanted the Eye to choose rightful queens regardless of the royal bloodline and kill those who are not worthy who try to take the throne. She used her power for Queen Scorpion until Scorpion asked for things that would cause large harm to other tribes, including the SkyWings.

Jerboa fled and enchanted an animal's egg to be a dragon egg. She named the dragonet Jerboa after herself, but the dragonet asked to be called Boa to be different from her mother. She started to enchant Boa to do the hard tasks and chores and be agreeable and perfect and reset her to a dragonet many times. Jerboa also abducted dragons from different tribes, enchanting them to be their servants. Jerboa enchanted Boa to "fear animus magic" or "not be interested" but Boa still asked Jerboa for an animus enchanted item; she gave her a shell necklace that would bring Boa to Jerboa any time she wished. They had lived eleven centuries when Boa asked for another enchantment, which was on porcupine quills tied together with a vine that would freeze her prey so she could catch it easier. The next day, Boa pointed the quills at Jerboa, freezing her in place. Boa interrogated Jerboa, asking her how many animus spells were on her. Boa said she found a scroll where Jerboa wrote down all her spells that she wanted on Boa, and revealed that she wrote down for her to be an animus. By that time, the porcupine quills had frozen Jerboa in a block of magical ice, sealing her in forever. Jerboa left one lasting magic effect on Boa: "I enchant this dragon to lose a part of herself with every enchantment she made until she was dead."

The Jade Mountain Prophecy

Talons of Power
When Turtle tried to convince Anemone she didn't have to be evil just because she was an animus dragon, he mentioned Jerboa as an example of someone who stayed good.
Darkness of Dragons

Although not mentioned by name, Thorn told Qibli that she felt that the Eye of Onyx was created by a dragon with "wisdom and goodness in her heart."

In the epilogue, Jerboa III introduced herself as not the original Jerboa, but her daughter.

The Lost Continent Prophecy

The Dangerous Gift
Jerboa is shown in Queen Snowfall's vision, where she saw how Jerboa had treated Jerboa III. Jerboa tweaked her daughter's personality to her liking, occasionally even resetting her to a young dragonet. Eventuly, Jerboa III found out about all of her mother's enchantments on her and froze her with enchanted porcupine quills. The block of ice in which she is frozen in remains under Jerboa III's hut.

Legends

Darkstalker
While reading Arctic's mind, Darkstalker heard him think briefly of Jerboa when he listed all of the known animus dragons of Pyrrhia.
