Template:CharboxObsidian is a male NightWing guard that appeared in Winter Turning and Talons of Power.
Appearance
He was described to have black scales and black eyes.
Personality
He is described by Moonwatcher to "have dark thoughts" when she is reading his mind. According to her, he despises being on guard duty and he hates his patrol partner, Bromeliad, as well. He also wishes that the NightWings could overthrow Glory and take the Rainforest for themselves, showing a liking towards the feeling of dominance. Obsidian shows a hatred towards IceWings, like the rest of his tribe, as well as towards Moonwatcher, whom he thinks of as 'the peculiar dragonet.'
Biography

Obsidian is seen complaining to Darkstalker about insects in the rainforest.
