Obsidian

Obsidian is a NightWing guard that appears in the seventh book in the Wings of Fire series, Winter Turning, and the ninth book, Talons of Power.

Personality

He is described by Moonwatcher to "have dark thoughts" when she is reading his mind. According to Moonwatcher, he despises being on guard duty, as well as Bromeliad, who is his patrol partner. He also wishes that the NightWings could overthrow Glory and rule the rainforest by themselves, showing a liking towards the feeling of dominance. Obsidian shows a hatred towards IceWings, like the rest of his tribe, as well as towards Moonwatcher, whom he thinks of as "the peculiar dragonet."
