- "Very well, you maddening NightWing. Your story has warmed my heart, or perhaps I just need you to go away and stop sliding incriminating notes under your door. So. Midnight tomorrow. Be ready."
- — Saguaro on a scroll to Fierceteeth.
Template:Charbox Saguaro is a female SandWing guard who seems to be interested in overthrowing Thorn with Fierceteeth. She has a scar across her chest right above her heart, probably due to scarcely surviving an assassination attempt. She is apparently a schemer, and connected to "great secret plans". In Prisoners, she exchanged letters with Fierceteeth in the dungeon, who was trying to get Saguaro to help her overthrow Queen Glory, and let her and Strongwings out of prison.
Biography
Saguaro was a major character in Prisoners. She was the SandWing guard Fierceteeth wrote notes to, trying to convince her to free her. Saguaro was most likely a spy of some sort for Vulture's Talons of Power, as it was stated in the books that Fierceteeth saw her drawing maps of the dungeon and doing more suspicious actions that she could tell the other guards about, such as talking to thin air, possibly giving reports to Vulture at scheduled times using the Obsidian Mirror, and her actions were different from the other guards. Saguaro refused to do anything with freeing Fierceteeth at first, but Fierceteeth later convinced her. At the end of Prisoners, Saguaro freed Fierceteeth and Strongwings, and they escaped into the desert.
Fierceteeth, Strongwings, and a group of SandWings try to assassinate Queen Glory of the RainWings. Darkstalker, however, saves the queen and creates a prison for her to keep them in. Saguaro is most likely one of the SandWings that Darkstalker captured.
