Vulture
Template:SpoilerDoD Template:Charbox Vulture is a male SandWing that appears in Darkness of Dragons. He is the grandfather to Qibli, Rattlesnake, and Sirocco, and father to Cobra. He is the leader of a cult-like gang who wants to overthrow Queen Thorn. They have been setting bombs off across Pyrrhia, and he blames the MudWings, bribing a MudWing named Bog to lie for him and say his tribe did it.
Appearance
Vulture has pale yellow scales, with dragon skull tattoos all over his body, making him look like a leopard from a distance. He has a hooked snout, and his black eyes look like holes and have gold rings in them. His barb, talons, and claws are dipped in gold leaf, and he wears several accessories, including enormous black and gold spider-shaped earrings, a black cape lined with gold, and draped gold chains all along his wings.
Biography
Vulture appears in Darkness of Dragons, working with Onyx. He keeps Ostrich as a hostage so he and Onyx can get to Six-Claws, Thorn's highest ranking general, then overthrow Thorn herself. He imprisons Qibli, Cobra, Winter, and Ostrich together, then tries to force Qibli to write down all of Thorn's secrets on a scroll. Qibli stalls, and the four of them escape.
