Viper
Template:Infobox CharacterViper was the false SandWing dragonet of destiny, and the intended replacement for Sunny. Her unnamed parents were members of the Talons of Peace; she was chosen only because she was "convenient". She despised the NightWing Morrowseer and wished she could return home to her family. She was the only false dragonet who died at the Night Kingdom.
Description
Unlike Sunny, Viper's scales were the proper SandWing color, and she also had a barbed, venomous tail.
Personality
Similar to all the other false dragonets, she was annoyed by Fatespeaker's imprecise predictions, and found amusement in bullying Squid. She seems to take pleasure in abusing Fatespeaker, nearly to the point of killing the Nightwing, and despises Fatespeaker's tribe for taking her away from her family. She acted aggressive to anyone she met, and usually kept to herself.
Biography
In the prologue, Viper was mock fighting with the other false dragonets. Ochre, the MudWing, trips over her, and she bites his tail. Squid says that she, Ochre, and Flame are bullies.
In the epilogue, they flew across the ocean with Morrowseer to the Night Kingdom and were placed in a cave. She tells Ochre that he smells bad, and gets mad at Fatespeaker when she claims to be having a vision.
She was introduced to Starflight, along with the rest of the false dragonets. She seems to like the idea of replacing Fatespeaker with Starflight, but still tries to kill him on Morrowseer's orders. She sticks with Squid during the chase, and are chased back to their cave by four NightWing guards. As Flame and Ochre are in the dungeon, she and Squid have to spend the night in the NightWing Dormitory. The NightWing dragonets annoy her, and she threatens them with her tail before sulking in a corner.
The next day, Morrowseer takes them to a remote SkyWing outpost and orders them to convince the SkyWing soldiers inside to switch their allegiance from Burn to Blister. The test is a failure, and had to be rescued by NightWing soldiers. Later, she told Morrowseer that she never wanted to do that again.
She is eager to jump into the practice fight with Fatespeaker. Viper blames Fatespeaker for her being taken to the NightWing island and nearly killed her before Starflight ran into her. She lost her balance, then her tail sliced Flame's face, and she toppled into a river of lava by accident. When Viper didn't reappear above the surface, Fatespeaker wept by the river for her lost "friend".
Sunny and Tsunami told the Talons of Peace of Viper's death, including a SandWing who is hinted to be her uncle or another relative.
