Powers: Winged Flight, Amberglow is certainly good in the air, with those massive wings. She is sturdy but not fast, able to lift tremendous weights and deposit them quite carefully where they're needed, rather precise given how large her wingspan actually is. Obviously she can tolerate a great number of people riding her, which is fine - her spine ridge is easily tucked between, and she's had no complaints about the jostling, her wing beats are slow and steady. It's been said that you can keep a baby asleep on her back, her flight is so smooth and stable. Without fail she can outlast almost all of the Rookery fliers, she might not get to the destination first, but she'll get there without being even slightly out of breath.
Communication, A calm and stable flier also has a calm demeanor, speaking wisdom and encouragement with a gentle force behind her voice. She can speak fluently in her homeworld's Draconic dialects, and has functional knowledge of the others that she's encountered on the Rookery. Also however she's picked up a very good grasp of English, Vortigese, French, Spanish, and Korean. She finds Korean and English to be the most difficult, and enjoys the flourish of both Romance languages, though also thinks while guttural the Vort language is remarkable and flexible. She does have a strong emotional, but not quite Vortal, bond with Gold.
Fire, Amber's glow is quite golden-yellow, though not as hot as some. She can be called 'beautifully warm' in that regard. Her purpose with the Rookery is not to fight, but to organize and maintain order, which she certainly does well with her human partner. They may be called upon to aid refugees, and on those long distance flights, keeping a group of huddled, addled and terrified humans and Vorts warm and dry is paramount. She can produce flame, like all Skywings, but it's farthest accurate and deadly distance is hardly 50 meters. Enough to keep antlions and other animals at bay, but only good for defense and not offense.
Parentage: Unknown, full blooded Skywings, though it's likely that neither of them were fighting dragons on their homeworld.

Other Info: Amberglow does very much want to start her own family here in the Rookery, there are so many lovely possible mates, too! Everyone knows she'll be a wonderful mother, and Gold has encouraged her to branch out - maybe it'll be a non-Pyrrhan? Who knows!
