Sirocco

Template:Charbox Sirocco is a SandWing of unknown gender mentioned in Moon Rising. He or she is one of Qibli's older siblings, the other being Rattlesnake who often helped to bully and torment Qibli (who is the younger brother) before Qibli joined the Outclaws. Qibli sometimes thinks or dreams about Sirocco and Rattlesnake doing mean things to him, such as when they threatened him with their barbed tails in exchange for a talonful of date palms. In Moon's vision and in Escaping Peril they are described as huge, bulky dragons wearing a medallion with a type of bird etched on it. Sirocco and Rattlesnake seem to be working for someone, possibly Onyx.

Biography

Moon Rising

Moonwatcher has a vision about Qibli fighting Rattlesnake and Sirocco, with an older male dragon glowering at him as well, shouting "Where is she?"

Winter Turning

Qibli compares Sirocco or Rattlesnake to Icicle, telling Winter that he also has a sinister older sister.

Escaping Peril

Peril and Turtle notice him and/or Rattlesnake in Possibility trying to buy 30 Dragonflame Cacti.
