Liana

Template:QuoteBox Template:Charbox Liana is a female RainWing who first appeared in The Hidden Kingdom. She seems to keep her scales dark blue with dapples of gold. She is one of the first two RainWings, the other being Jambu, that Glory encountered after Clay, Tsunami, Webs, and Sunny were tranquilized with RainWing sleeping darts. She seemed rather kind, but was also shown to be quite irritated when being asked questions about Glory's lost home, and notes that Glory is not as brightly colored as the rest of them. Liana was in the group that led Glory and Starflight to the RainWing village. She was also one of the dragons alongside Glory on the mission to free the captured RainWings in The Dark Secret. She has very few appearances after that.

Biography

The Hidden Kingdom

After the dragonets were taken to the RainWing Kingdom, Liana informed Glory what the tranquilizer darts were and also explained what the concept of suntime was, visibly annoyed at how calmly Glory reacted to not knowing. Glory thought that Liana realized how she was stolen from the hatcheries, which led Starflight to figure out that the lack of sunshine in the caves the dragonets of destiny had grown up in had made Glory harsher and grumpier, and her scales duller than a typical RainWing's. Liana and the rest of the RainWing group led the dragonets back to the RainWing village, where suntime began and Liana left. Later, Glory also considered on having Liana on her team for the Royal RainWing Challenge, but picked Tamarin instead, possibly due to Liana's 'superior' actions and words; therefore indicating that Liana did not impress Glory as a team player.

The Dark Secret

In The Dark Secret, she and Grandeur used the NightWing's spears to free the captured RainWings. Liana is described as usually completing tasks with Grandeur.

“Your scales they’re just so......mousy." - To Glory

Trivia

• A liana is a woody, climbing plant that hangs from trees, especially in tropical rainforests.
• It is possible that Queen Glory made her a guard because she helped free the captured RainWings from the NightWing Island.
• Since she patrolled the borders of the rainforest before and after Glory arrived, it is possible that before Glory arrived, the RainWings still had somewhat of a military, and weren't completely defenseless.
