Shrimp
A flimsy practically empty folder would side forwards- just some documents considering the Sandwing war of succession, proof of hatching certificate, and a Jade mountain enrolment request
“Ahhhh Shrimp...she-ack...sorry, they are nothin’ too special- they hatched during the Sandwing war of succession under the parents: Whirlpool and Shell...yeah...the Whirlpool that we are both thinking of, grew up timid and anxious all the time since...well their father was both negligent of them and their mother-who he saw more as a “mistake while tipsy”...if you know what I mean and wasn’t exactly the most respectable dragon- and because of that they’d get bullied a lot both for their father’s status as a loser and...Y’know...- which in turn led to their anxiety...but life in the Seakingdom wasn’t what Shrimp liked- it was torture in their own words. Like it wasn’t what they wanted, so they came to the shores of the Mudkingdom and started wandering aimlessly trying to find something to do- they learnt a lot about the war itself from the Mudwings...and because of that they decided to do their bit and serve in the war- they became a messenger which really isn’t something like combat or what not but it’s still technically serving?”
They’d flip through the file describing Shrimp’s life during the war
“They traveled across Pyrrhia probably a dozen times delivering news and new advancements in the war to whoever was willing to listen-...but one important dragon did...he paid attention, and after careful evaluation of Shrimp’s ability to deliver messages efficiently- Venom, Sandwing gang leader had decided to bring them under his wing with an alias to him...which is sort of when Shrimp’s activity within the war slowly began to die down and more into the crime aspect of Pyrrhia- they never indulged in the killing or destruction that Venom brought but instead just stayed off to the sideline as a loyal messenger willing to go find things out for him in exchange for a roof over their head and a nice meal to end the day”
They’d pause momentarily still glancing down at the files before skipping most of the boring information more fixated on how the war ended, what Shrimp was doing under Venom’s alias. Before finally stopping on the Jade mountain request for enrolment letter
“...Soon after the war Shrimp had learnt about Jade mountain- a school that the dragonets of destiny were starting up! And no longer happy with their life as a technical gang member- they had asked Venom if they could at least enrol into Jade mountain and see what came back...he agreed saying something like: “you can go only if they’ll welcome you”. Stuff like that...well- they got in and have been spending their time educating themselves in Jade mountain ever since...”
