Toad is the current heir apparent of the [[MudWings]], having held a royalty position since late 8,123 <small>''[9th of October, 2023]''</small>. Despite being beloved within [[the Mud Kingdom]] for their philanthropic efforts and campaigns against dragon rights violations, they are often perceived as naive and uncivilized by the dragons of other kingdoms.


== Description ==
== Description ==
Toad is a tall yet slightly thin bigwings, with a sloping nose-bridge and a "general squishy appearance". Their posture is poor, often causing them to appear slightly shorter than they are, yet they still stand a head above the average MudWing of their age. Their moderately pitched voice croaks with vocal fry, but remains generally soft and melodic. Toad has fire-resistant olive-green scales, often seen spattered with mud and clay. The plates along their back are a sandy brown, with their dorsal spines and ridges sporting a dull mahogany hue matching their horns. Their underbelly, paler than most, is a very dull shade of yellow-white. This color is due to a minor pigment deficiency, a purely visual genetic quirk which runs in their family. Their eyes are bright gold, and they sport both a gold-copper alloy septum piercing and one hoop earring, of the same metal, on their left ear.
Otter has relatively neutral light brown scales, which slightly lean towards warm tones on his sides and back. He has a mask of dark brown on his face, with an extra arc of tealish-blue scales lined with two glowscales on his cheeks. Her eyes are a golden color, with a darker sclera and lighter iris.
Otter's underbelly is a very light brown shade, similar to her sides, although much lighter and a touch yellower. Her dorsal scales are a deep brown, the same shade as her face, and lay in a caped pattern that swirls around the shoulders and hips. Within those swirls lie one glowscale each, similar to a sharp cattail plant. Along the side of his underbelly is a small spattering of thin but tall glowscales. Her back left foot has a “sock” pattern, the same color as his dorsal scales.
 
To put it simply, "A stout brown and mint colored hybrid. A lighter underbelly, soft dry mud-brown scales, and a dark back- Speckled with different shades of mintish green. Certain areas glow, some do not. Amber colored eyes, and sharp black horns." - @kinnmin, on discord.


== Personality ==
== Personality ==
Bold, enthusiastic, and talkative when they're "in their element", Toad is generally the antithesis of what royalty is supposed to act like. They are rarely quiet, often joking about something or narrating their own actions. A lack of social cues tends to get the better of them, as well as the desire to always be right, but they are otherwise a positive and caring dragon whose joy is infectious. Unfortunately, Toad is very loud about their strong moral compass, often interrupting official proceedings with their criticisms and arguing with those making decisions they deem to be unjust.
Otter tends to be quiet and reserved, only showing her actual emotions when he is familiar with the other dragon. His thoughts are quite filled with bloodlust and interest in all things gorey, and she quickly grows bored of things that aren't remarkably stimulating. She is relatively vocal about her thoughts on activities or dragons that fail to pique her interest, indicating a sort of impatience about her.
Despite her visceral thoughts, he enjoys assisting with the animals that his sibs tend to, and spends his days working as a bartender.

Toad was hatched from a blood-red egg in the Royal MudWing Hatchery on June 8th, 8,109 A.S. during the reign of their mother, Queen Bulrush, becoming the bigwings of her only clutch of six eggs. The troop was named by palace staff the day after, with the bigwings being named Toad, after the classification of frogs as a whole. To match, their siblings were named after species within said group. Toad, along with their siblings, was educated within the Mud Palace by famed royal tutor, Waterwort. They reportedly excelled in their education, receiving high grades and often being cited as "stereotype breakers". According to a scroll printed in 8,114 A.S., Toad's best subject was grammar; however, the same scroll noted that they "would still need a scribe during their reign, due to their barbaric talonwriting."
{{IncompleteSection}}
 
Queen Bulrush stepped down from royalty shortly after Toad and their sibs turned six, passing the throne onto a noble as her own heirs were too young to rule a kingdom. The royal troop disappeared from the public eye for a bit less than a decade, completing their dragonethood in peace and building a small bunkhouse outside of what is now the ''Cherry Stronghold''. When Toad turned 12, they briefly enlisted in the royal guard. However, they quickly discovered that joint instability made carrying out combat duties near-impossible. As such, they retired from the guard within a year of joining, souring their status among the military.
 
Upon the death of their estranged maternal great-uncle, Toad received an inheritance large enough to comfortably support their sibs while they applied for a position in the succession line of the Mud Kingdom. This attempt was successful, marking Toad's return to official aristocracy after seven years of relative silence. Although their time as noble was brief, they dedicated it to supplying aid to wounded dragons during a spree of attacks on hybrids. After the disappearance of King Glade and the death of Queen Cherry within the same few months, Toad found themself yet again a heir of the Mud Kingdom.
 
Toad's time as an heir has been spent building diplomatic relations with other kingdoms, as well as focusing on lessening the wealth gap existing in the Mud Kingdom. They are generally thought of as helpful, but inconsequential.
