DesertStorm

DesertStorm has a burning desire to become the strongest dragon in existence. In the pursuit of this desire, he trains almost constantly giving him a bulky frame for a pearlcatcher, which in turn means he consumes more food to maintain his muscle mass. His goal seems to go against the nature of a pearlcatcher and as a result, he is rather ferocious for his breed. He wears his confidence around him like impenetrable armor. Unfortunately, his confidence can easily tip into arrogance that causes him and other dragons to not quite see eye to eye. He gets into minor arguments whenever he and Redfeather cross paths as they both usually desire Faelight's attention. He has an odd need for the matriarch, Faelight, to acknowledge him, yet he usually acts like a petulant or spoiled child with a chip on his shoulder in her presence. Despite his occasional sullen mood, he is well liked by his fellow dragons.

His best friends Shadowraptor and Embercoal, who have fought with him side by side through every trial have his unswerving loyalty (though he would never tell them that). It wouldn't appear as if he had any desire for CrystalTempest except for the fact that he took her as a mate. He once claimed he wouldn't take a mate unless she was "The only one I would ever want."
His children are a source of pride for him and he has high aspirations of one day making an army.

DesertStorm agreed to move to the Ice realm on one condition. He would have the army he always desired. Mikhail was less than pleased with the arrangement but cannot argue with DesertStorm's results. His army is as fearsome as he is and just as capable. DesertStorm enjoys the cold of the Ice realm and only occasionally misses his home in the Shadow Forrest. He is the acting general of the army and has yet to name a successor. Mikhail knows better than to suggest changes to DesertStorm's army. Instead, Mikhail brings his worries to Malva a daughter in law to DesertStorm. It may seem like an odd way of passing on his opinions but Malva is a coatl and as such CrystalTempest (DesertStorm's mate) is more than willing to pass her ideas on to DesertStorm. These ideas he will take into consideration. DesertStorm is very aware Mikhail does this and enjoys making the king jump through the extra hoops.
