"He's right. I am Peril of the SkyWings. Perhaps you've heard of me. But if you'd like to find out whether he's telling the truth, come a bit closer and we can do a fun experiment."
— Peril to Nautilus's Talons of Peace group in Escaping Peril.

Template:Charbox Peril is a young female SkyWing and the main protagonist of Escaping Peril. Formerly Queen Scarlet's champion, she has a rare and deadly ability known as firescales, allowing her the ability to kill any dragon with ease by burning them to death. Peril's mother, Kestrel, tried to flee the Sky Kingdom with her dragonet, but was burned so badly that she had to drop her and flee. After the events of The Brightest Night, Peril was banished from the Sky Kingdom by Queen Ruby, but after Peril saved Ruby's son, Cliff, she was pardoned and welcomed into Ruby’s palace.

She has romantic feelings for Clay, and earlier in the series Clay said he likes her as a friend and enjoys her company, but in the epilogue of Darkness of Dragons, seems to have fallen for her when he accepted her offer to fly in the rain.

Personality

Contrary to her first appearance in The Dragonet Prophecy, Peril's real personality showed itself in Escaping Peril as being hilarious, unapologetic, and fierce. After she met Turtle, she was finally able to express herself to someone other than Clay; at first, she doubted Turtle's desire to be her friend, but by the end of Escaping Peril she was sure, as he had come to see if she was all right after Queen Ruby and Ex-Queen Scarlet's gladiator battle. After she had ripped off the necklace enchanted by her father, Peril realized that she could have a chance at being liked with her firescales - but without her former queen. From the moment since she saved Clay's life in The Brightest Night, Peril has tried her hardest to be the best dragon she can.

Appearance

Peril has unusually, beautiful bright metallic-orange[1] copper-colored[2] scales with smoke rising from them- due to her fire-scales, and veins of gold running through her glimmering copper wings[3]. She has eagle-sharp, eerie, startling blue eyes, like two small blue flames blazing, or like "someone had bundled up the sky and immersed it in fire until it burned from the inside" as described by Princess Ruby. She was also noted to have a long tail[4] and sharp, white teeth, as well as full sized horns. At first when clay saw her fighting Horizon he wondered if she had fire in her claws, but later he realized she was firescales. Cite error: Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag that dragons born with too little fire, such as Peril's brother, are a pale, sickly-looking orange or red.

  • Winter confirmed that IceWing frostbreath does not affect her. Peril said that it just made the area numb for a few minutes.
  • It has been confirmed by Moon that Peril's mind is difficult to read because of her fire, shielding Peril from the outside and inside.
  • In Winter Turning when Darkstalker tried to see her possible futures, said that it was like "following a map through a forest fire".
  • Peril is possibly mentioned in the Jade Mountain prophecy as: "Beware the talons of power and fire," She most likely is the "talons of fire".
  • Peril is capable of eating food raw as long as it doesn't touch her outer scales.
  • Peril has a different name category from most, if not all other SkyWings as they are often named after birds, reddish colors, and fire-related words. In her case, Peril was named after how dangerous she is.
  • Water does not counteract Peril's scales, as when her tail slipped into a pool, she boiled the two fish swimming in it. However, that could have just been because of the small size of the pool, as fish that bumped against her while she was swimming in a river were unharmed.
  • Peril is shown to like her prey burned instead of raw, as shown in Escaping Peril when Turtle tries to feed her a raw fish.
  • Peril can be hurt by a dragonflame cactus. This was confirmed in Escaping Peril when she accidentally set one off while in Possibility. The needles did burn off after a few minutes, but caused her severe pain.
  • Peril is technically half "artificial" SkyWing because Soar the SkyWing is her father and Soar is really a RainWing, Chameleon (one half of her SkyWing blood has been influenced by magic, Darkstalker's scroll).
  • The book where she is the main character (Escaping Peril) is the shortest book in the series so far, having only 288 pages.
  • It is stated by Moonwatcher how Peril has presumed fire in her mind; however, after the main events of Escaping Peril, Moonwatcher states that the amount of fire in her mind is much less.
  • In Tui's original draft of The Dragonet Prophecy, Peril and her twin brother were the SkyWing dragonets for the prophecy.
  • Tui had originally intended to kill Peril, but fan outcry caused her to change this and later give her a book of her own [5].
