Biography
Legends
At the start of Dragonslayer, Daffodil dragged Ivy into a room with Violet after eavesdropping on her and Miss Laurel, the two revealed their "secret" club as the Truth Seekers. They later became best friends. The three of them become Wingwatchers together, after a while of sneaking out and training.
Daffodil was there when the IceWing carrying Ivy's uncle Stone showed up, and he revealed Rose's story. She went to Stone's cave, where he told them the whole story. The dreamvisitor was hidden under the blankets, which Heath suspected once he walked in, and Daffodil told Stone that they'd wash it and bring it back.
Daffodil later woke up Ivy after a while of training to reveal that Violet, Foxglove, and a few others were taken prisoner by her father. She, alongside Lark, Ivy's mother, snuck her out of the house. Daffodil and Ivy ended up in the abandoned city, where they camped out with Pine and later, Stone and Leaf.
Relationships
Daffodil appears to dislike her older sister, going as far as to say she loathes Daisy. Throughout Dragonslayer she constantly mentions how she finds Daisy annoying, even comparing Daisy to Heath while trying to comfort Ivy.
Daffodil considers Ivy one of her best friends. She cares greatly for her, and has been shown comforting Ivy whenever she has been distressed. Daffodil trusts Ivy, and is protective of her while hiding out in the abandoned ruins of Valor, trying to convince Ivy not to go with any of her plans that could get her arrested.
Daffodil often gets into arguments with Violet, though she has shown concern and care for Violet throughout Dragonslayer. The two are said to be best friends before befriending Ivy, and Ivy notes that both are fiercely loyal to each other. When telling Ivy about the imprisoned Wingwatchers, Daffodil began to cry when she said Violet was arrested.
