Personal Info
Name: Gemini
Nickname: Queen of Nightmares, The Shadow Serpent, Demon Princess, Nightwalker
Age: 26 human years
Gender: Female
Personality: Gemini is a born soldier, stern and strict. She is a severe dragon, with a fearsome and commanding presence. Rather harsh and blunt with her fellow tribemates, and merciless to her enemies, she is very deadly in her own right. She is sharp-tongued and prone to acts of hostility. As part of the deadly NightWings, she holds the phrase "survival of the fittest" in high regards, as NightWing territory is very dangerous to live in, and their tribe has transformed into that of something similar to a military. She is known to have a silver tongue (great with deception), and is very persuasive, perceptive and adaptive. Teamwork is an important aspect to her, as she understands that she will never be able to accomplish anything big without the aid of others. She usually keeps a straight face and tries to stay calm in any situation possible. While she does not have a "soft spot", her kingdom and tribe are her pride and joy, and she will take great risks to protect her home as well as the lives of those who have put their trust in her.
Interests: Drilling new recruits, sparring, reading
Dislikes: When Twilight always sets off fireworks in the room, or if somebody's trying to get her attention by yelling, and just idiots basically.
Fears: She's never liked the sunlight very much. It had always blinded her, and she's also scared that her own living family (besides her dad) would die.

General Appearance
Height: 50 ft
Scales: Pure black, overlapping like armor
Eyes: One gold, one silver
Appearance: A large, pure black dragon. She has two large, white horns that point backwards, with a slight curve to them, and has a few smaller horns on the side. Her eyes are intimidating to many dragons, as she has one pure gold eye and one silver eye like the moon, with a scar across her left eye. Down her back, she has flickering purple-black flames instead of the usual spikes. The scales on her chest and stomach overlap like plates of armor, which serves as good protection for her underbelly.

In Demon form, she becomes a dark purple dragoness. She grows two other eyes above her original eyes, and all four turn an icy blue color. Her wings become larger and more jagged, and on the underside of her wings, there are random dots of silver scales, looking like a night full of stars, which is very effective in blending into the night. Her claws become much larger, then same color of her scales, and she has several spikes that point and curve backwards on her knuckles. On her legs, she grows a few spikes going up. Her tail becomes even more barbed than usual, and on her head she has a crown of dark purple spikes that point backwards.

Skills and Abilities
Strengths: She possesses great acrobatic and martial art skills, alongside astonishingly lightning fast reflexes and agility. Her leadership skills are also very advanced, and can keep her tribe and herself calm in a catastrophe with just a few soothing words. She's known widely for her famous stealth attacks, creeping around in a shadow, and jumping from enemy to enemy so fast you can only see a black blur. She is an excellent soldier.
Special Abilities: She can spread shadow claws on any surface including her own body, other bodies, and other objects, allowing her to create copies of them. These shadow claws can become intangible, and can go through objects to reach their target. Physical attacks will not stop them, but they can touch their target. Only very powerful light is able to rid these shadow claws. Gemini can also make her own body intangible for a few minutes, but that's only when she stores up a few hours of her energy inside of herself.
Weaknesses: She is stubborn and arrogant, and likes to make her own decisions, without anybody bossing her around. She is too confident in her abilities in leading the tribe on her own, which is how she has troubles with her council at times.
Combat Style: Gemini's fighting style revolve around ambushing and shadow techniques along with speed, strength, agility, quick reaction time, and other shadow-based attacks. Using this fighting-style, she practices her famed "hit-and-run" tactics where she delivers powerful attacks to the opponent, moving at speeds that they can hardly keep up with.

Background
History: Gemini was born outside of the tribe, and never knew her real mother and father. Her father was the Demon King. She grew up outside the tribe, living with her foster parents. A terrible fire had erupted and killed her "parents", so Gemini was forced to live alone. She accidentally wandered into NightWing territory, and the dragons took her in, after some beating up, but she found out her true origins soon enough, and became a loyal Tracker of the NightWings. She found out that she had a little sister called Twilight, and was very happy. Her mentor had been her own mother, and she progressed under her careful watching. She grew to become Lieutenant, and trained Twilight, but a terrible tragedy struck both her mother. Rogue dragons had attacked the camp and left her mom severely wounded. They died and Gemini became the new leader of the NightWings. She doesn't rule harshly, but fairly, and rules on today, but carrying many scars from her past battle. Sure, she disliked her father for being an evil Demon king, but she didn't necessarily want him dead, either. At least he truly loved her mother.
RP Sample: A shadow lurked through the ever lasting mist of the Night Kingdom. Gemini's sharp eyes darted around, and her black forked tongue flickered out, tasting the air for the scent of prey. She immediately had the scent of buffalo on her nose, and dissolved into a shadow, stalking the scent. Arriving to the large plain, she spotted the herd and got into the position to pounce. She grabbed the nearest buffalo, cutting its throat, but not before sending a prayer to the gods, thanking them for the ever plentiful food.
