- — Fearless to Darkstalker about NightWing powers, Talons of Power
Template:Charbox Fearless is a female NightWing dragonet, attending Jade Mountain Academy as a member of the Silver Winglet. Thanks to King Darkstalker, she gained the animus-enchanted power of super strength. She also sided with Darkstalker in the Battle of Jade Mountain.
Appearance
Fearless has black scales[1] and was said to be small[2]. The item Darkstalker enchanted for her is a bracelet made from a pair of silver and black wires hastily twisted together. It is barely visible on her wrist[3].
Biography
Fearless is most likely one of the dragonets that was with Starflight when he woke up in the dormitory, but she wasn't mentioned by name or in the book.
At first, Fearless attacked Darkstalker, along with Mightyclaws and Mindreader. She was then later introduced to Darkstalker by Moonwatcher, when she asked Darkstalker some questions about the Lost City of Night. Then she asked Moon a barrage of questions once she was told that Moon had mind reading powers and prophecy abilities. After Darkstalker stated that he could enchant objects without consequence, Fearless ran out of the room to give Darkstalker something to enchant. Coming back with a hurriedly-made bracelet made out of twisted wire, she asked for super strength, and then tested it out by slamming her tail into a stalactite, shattering it on impact.
She went with Mindreader, Anemone, Darkstalker, Sunny, and Moon to save Stonemover, when it was revealed that he was in danger. Later in the book, she went to the Night Kingdom with the majority of the NightWings. She returned to the Lost City of the Night shortly after. She was not directly mentioned during this section of the book.
Fearless was shown briefly in the the Battle of Jade Mountain, attempting to attack a skilled young IceWing fighter with blue freckles, who was most likely Lynx. Winter came to the IceWing's rescue and used his frostbreath on Fearless's wing, causing her to crash. Wounded, she dragged herself into the shelter of a small cave.
Later, in the epilogue of the book, Clay mentioned that Fearless, Tamarin, and Pike were doing a presentation about Darkstalker's history for school.
