YOU MUST HAVE READ THIS TO APPLY FOR A ICEWING CHARACTER! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE WINGS OF FIRE SERIES.
Appearance
IceWings are lean dragons, their tails possessing whip-thin ends with icicle-like spines. IceWing scales are varied colors but are usually quite pale. Scale colors can range from silvery-grays and white to pale blues and purples, though they are always a shade capable of blending in with ice. IceWings have dark blue or stormy gray eyes and forked blue tongues. They have diamond-shaped heads that are very narrow, with a line of extra horns down their neck. Their blood is blue.
Occasionally, IceWings may have dark freckles or markings on their faces or wings, though that is rare.

(General) Demeanor
(Note that every dragon is different and therefore there will inevitably be exceptions)
IceWings are sophisticated, strict, and act superior towards the other tribes, as they are the only tribe with a true social hierarchy. IceWings are very prideful and are commonly perceived as rude and arrogant by the other tribes. IceWings have strict codes of behavior and follow them completely. They see those who act out or differently as strange and unacceptable. IceWings do not commonly show affection, as they believe certain things, like hugging, to be undignified. Many IceWings believe that the only way to make young dragons strong is to expose all of their weaknesses so that they will try harder to prove themselves.
Abilities
IceWings are the best at battling subzero temperatures and bright lights out of all the tribes. They have serrated claws used for gripping ice and are known for having sharp eyesight. Their scales give off a cold chill, which can cause water droplets on their bodies to freeze. IceWings can exhale frostbreath, an icy blast that freezes anything it touches, freezing off limbs and making body parts incredibly cold. When frostbreath touches dirt, it makes ice-crystals, and it can be used to extinguish fires. When in a very warm environment, heat can temporarily disrupt an IceWings ability to use frostbreath. IceWings do not have very high heat-tolerance and their scales have been described as 'melting' in very hot places. When it comes to mind-reading, IceWings have glittering and bright minds that are hard to read, and, when in a group, they will 'reflect' off of each other, making it even harder. IceWings have trouble picking out scents in crowded areas.
Creation/roleplay guidelines
-IceWings have a strong rivalry with NightWings over the loss of their animus magic (see kingdom information)
-IceWings no longer have animus dragons, so only IceWings with NightWing, SandWing, or royal SeaWing blood could potentially be born with it
-IceWings do not do well in hot temperatures, and when forced to stay in a warm or hot area for more than a day, they are significantly weaker than normal
