Biography

The Jade Mountain Prophecy

Moon Rising

Bandit seems to be utterly terrified of all dragons, except possibly Moonwatcher, as she saved him from being eaten. Bandit was nearly captured and killed by students in the prey center when he escaped from his cage, Qibli having opened it to get a better look at him. He was also hungry enough to allow Kinkajou to feed him a blueberry, but Moon later convinces Winter to feed him cooked meat. Bandit appears to be lonely, likely a result of his separation from other humans. Moonwatcher couldn't thoroughly read what he thinks since he isn't a dragon, but she can understand his raw emotions (a phenomenon also observed by Listener in Darkstalker). Winter is seen setting Bandit free at the end of Moon Rising, mainly because he would freeze to death in the Ice Kingdom. At first, Bandit seems not to want to leave, perhaps because a giant menacing dragon was standing near the exit or because it was raining, but after a bit of yelling coming from his owner, Winter, he scurried off into the forest.

Winter Turning

At the beginning of the book, Winter is trying to make Bandit leave because there would be no way that Bandit would survive in the Ice Kingdom. However, Bandit refuses to move. Winter ends up having to scare the human away by rattling the cage and growling.
