Vengeance
Template:Infobox Character Vengeance was a deep black, scarred NightWing with several melted scales[1] and bubbles of flesh along his jawline[2]. His snout was twisted by a long, RainWing-venom scar caused by Queen Splendor[3] that closed one nostril. His voice was rasping, wet, and hoarse[4]. He was burned to death in a lava pool for disobeying the NightWing Queen's orders in The Dark Secret, but it took some time for him to fully die.
Biography
Vengeance is one of the two dragons Deathbringer has to choose from to kill in order to get off the island. Vengeance is awake and playing a game with a couple friends when Deathbringer arrives, so he kills Vengeance's cousin, Slaughter, instead. This is likely what brought Vengeance's hatred of Deathbringer as seen in The Dark Secret.
Vengeance was the kidnapper of Glory and Queen Splendor. He is mentioned, though not by name, when Glory is taken to the Night Kingdom. During his attempt to capture Splendor, she accidentally sprayed him with her venom, scarring his face and giving him intense hatred for all RainWings.
He interrupted the council meeting where Starflight was being interrogated about the RainWings's plan. He then claims that he knows more about RainWings than anyone else. Greatness accused him of disobeying orders by kidnapping Glory, even after Deathbringer had warned them not to. He rebuffed by explaining how Deathbringer allowed Clay to pass through the tunnel, and had him arrested. However, Queen Battlewinner decided that Vengeance must be executed for capturing Glory, and he was thrown into a lava pool. Vengeance struggled to escape, but the guards used spears to keep him submerged until he eventually burned to death. Later, Starflight wondered about Queen Scarlet and how she could still be alive, as Glory's venom didn't hit her in the eyes. He thinks that, if she was alive, she would look like Vengeance.
Personality
Vengeance was a very aggressive and cold individual. He rarely spoke, and used intimidation on any captured RainWings. He was rather cruel, angry, and vengeful (hence the name), hating all RainWings for what one's venom did to his snout. That RainWing was later confirmed to be Splendor.
