Violet

"They brought me a half-burned doll and said maybe I could fix it, to make it pretty, but that sounded boring. So instead I pretend she's a furious ghost who haunts the ruins, waiting to get her REVENGE on the dragons!"

— Violet to Ivy, Dragonslayer

Violet is a young female scavenger and a resident of Valor. She is one of Ivy's friends, along with Daffodil.

Appearance

Violet is tall and has her hair cut to chin length. She usually wears the forest-green Wingwatcher uniform.

Personality

Violet was mentioned to be loud but also reasonable. She appears to have a more stable personality than Daffodil, despite them both being the loudest kids in Ivy's grade. Violet likes to deeply analyze and think things through, instead of jumping to exciting conclusions like Daffodil, shown after Ivy tells them about the unfair banishment of Pine. She is very smart and she loves to read and write. She spots conspiracies all the time and is amazing at keeping secrets.

Biography

Legends

Dragonslayer

Violet and Daffodil were close friends from the beginning of the book, despite the fact that they were constantly at each other's throats and, according to Ivy, turned the class into 'a war zone' every month. Violet and Daffodil became friends with Ivy after they heard her talking to Ms. Laurel about her father, Heath, and the banishment of Pine. Violet and Daffodil invited Ivy to join their club, the Truth Seekers. Their mission was to find out the truth about what was going on in Valor, and they had many 'missions' throughout the story. At age fourteen, Violet became a Wingwatcher along with the other Truth Seekers to investigate a conspiracy among the group as one of their missions.
