Swordtail
Template:SpoilerTLC Template:Charbox Swordtail is a male SilkWing[1] that appears in The Lost Continent.[2] Luna hoped to be partnered with him in an artist's cell when she grew her wings.[1] He works in a SilkWing construction crew under a dragon named Grasshopper (likely a HiveWing). He is said to be rebellious, always talking back to the HiveWings, which is what likely earned him his position on a construction crew. His sister is Io.
Appearance
Swordtail has dark blue scales with a small pattern of white triangles along his spine and snout,[2] "like a flurry of snow moths",[2] and is dappled all over with orange splotches[2] "as though someone had melted a sunset in a cauldron and thrown it at his wings".[2] His wings are a deep blue, and his irises are dark blue. Because of his job, he is usually covered in dirt, with splinters of bark and sap between his claws or caught on his horns.[3] He has long blue antennae.[4]

Personality
Swordtail is known for causing trouble, as a dragon with wild ideas who talks a little too freely, and he's spent a lot of time on Misbehaver's Way before being assigned to a construction crew because of it. Blue worries that he might have been putting dangerous ideas in Luna's head, such as the SilkWings having a Queen of their own or the collapse of one of the towers being the fault of shoddy construction instead of LeafWing sabotage. Blue describes him as having 'impulsive courage', and despite his ideas, doesn't think he's a danger to the Hive.
