Ivy
- "My dad's a liar. He let his sister die. And all the people he's banished, and who knows how many hundreds of people in all those villages the dragons destroyed. That's all because of him."

Template:Charbox Ivy, referred to as Holler by Princess Sunny, is a female scavenger and one of the three protagonists of the second Legends book, Dragonslayer, the other two being Leaf and Wren. She is one of two scavengers that Sunny met in the scavenger ruins in The Brightest Night, along with Leaf. She is also the daughter of Heath.
Appearance
According to The Brightest Night, Ivy has enormous brown eyes, long dark hair that flows from her head down to the middle of her back, and has the same little nose and features as Flower, as well as being smaller than her. She wore what Sunny described as "a fabric" draped around her, which has a pocket that she kept her dreamvisitor in. Sunny describes her as cute and adorable. She also held a dreamvisitor, which was described to be the about size of an orange. Sunny noticed that Ivy moved in a quick, confident way.
On the cover of Dragonslayer, Ivy has long dark hair and tan skin. She wears a pink shirt with a brown belt, tan pants, and light brown shoes. She appears to be holding a miniature dreamvisitor attached to a chain in her hands.
In the book, Ivy spends much of her POV in a Wingwatcher uniform, which is dark green. She is also mentioned wearing a grey dress and owning a fancy purple one.
Personality
While not much of her true personality was known in The Brightest Night due to her being a scavenger instead of a dragon, Ivy appears to be braver than most scavengers, as she yelled at Sunny and also requested rides from her once they befriended each other, although this was later revealed to be Ivy trying to ask Sunny where her aunt Rose (Flower) was. Sunny also mentioned that she moved confidently. More about her personality is revealed in Dragonslayer when she was initially shown to idolise her father, Heath, for his supposed heroism, but as she grew older, she began to fear that Heath may not be as brave and heroic as everybody excluding herself thought he was. This is later proven to be true when Ivy learns that Rose's "death" was partly due to an unrepentant Heath's cowardliness and that it was Ivy's uncle, not Heath, who slaughtered Oasis. Realising that Heath was nothing but a fraud, Ivy develops resentment towards her father for his cowardliness and lack of remorse for lying about it.
Much like her aunt, she has artistic talent.
Biography
The Dragonet Prophecy
| The Brightest Night |
|---|

At Jade Mountain, a scavenger, later revealed to be Ivy, contacted (possibly accidentally) Sunny using a dreamvisitor. Sunny assumed that the only way the scavenger can have gotten the dreamvisitor was by stealing it, and so she traveled to the scavenger ruins in hopes that the rest of the SandWing Treasure would be there. Upon arrival at the ruins, Sunny climbed onto a tree to survey the area from above and hide until the scavengers came. Eventually, at night, two scavengers emerged from the burnt village; one of them with short, fluffy hair, and a more confident one with longer hair. Sunny approached the scavengers but was forced to trap them on the remains of a scavenger building due to them not being cooperative and trying to attack her. She gave Ivy the name Holler because she was being very loud, and the other Fluffy because of his fluffy hair. After Sunny asked for the dreamvisitor, Ivy and Fluffy (Leaf) began to argue, presumably on whether to give it to the dragonet or not. Eventually, Ivy produced the sapphire and gave it to Sunny. Sunny then asked for the rest of the treasure by drawing a pile of it in the dirt with her claw. After watching the two scavengers discuss it for a while, she decided to take Fluffy off of the wall, assuming that he would bring the treasure in return for Ivy. Ivy then demanded a ride from the dragonet, and so Sunny let her onto her back and flew off in search of Fluffy. After Fluffy gives Sunny a sack full of treasure, Sunny noticed that the Eye of Onyx was not in there, although the Lazulite Dragon was. Sunny questioned the scavengers, but they did not appear to have it. As she was about to leave, Sunny considered keeping Ivy and Fluffy as pets, but eventually decided against it. Ivy asked Sunny for another ride, but Sunny regretfully told them that she had to leave, and flew away with the sack of treasure. Sunny wondered if she would ever see them again. |
