Personality: She is smart but cautious or at least has taught herself to be cautious. When shes' not, her curiousity can get the better of her and sometimes put her in potentially dangerous situations.
Bio: Nixie grew up in a clan of dragons that lived on the edge of the territories. Where few humans roamed, some of the dragons in the clans had never even seen a human. She came across them when she was young, she had fallen prey to a human trap. She at wondered out of the nest and just a little too far from her family and the safety of the clan. When the trap wrapped her up, even managing to tangle her mouth so she couldn't call out to her family for help. When the trappers came for her, she was panicking having seen such creatures and they terrified her. There was nothing she could do though, as she struggled against her binds. Unable to move the way she wanted too. They dragged her back to camp and when they got tired of her wiggliness and pulled out a knife. Finding the spot under her wings, where her scales were soft and knicked it with the knife.
The pain made her stop hold still, petrified as to what these strange beasts might do to her if she did anything else. Leaving it so all she could do was watch as the strangers came and went, telling how many days went by, by the changing length of shadows and after a few days. She heard a roar that made the trees rustle, a squeak of surprise stuck in her throat. As the beasts that had held her captive all this time, were clearly surprised and a bit scared.
After a few moments a massive black dragon landed, making her heart soar with hope. As the beasts scattered, her heart sank when she noticed a similar beast getting off the dragons' back. Watching it give chase to the others of it's kind and was even more surprised when the dragon turned into one of the beasts. Nixie started to freak out, but the older dragon growled at her to calm down and when she stopped moving. He explained everything as he untangled her. When he was done, his rider came back with two of the trappers who had caught her. They tied the bad humans up and the black dragon changed back to his dragon form. Escorting her back home and answering her million questions on the way back.
He nearly got attacked by her clan when they arrived, but nudged her forward and warned her to be more careful. Which she promised and thanked him for saving her. Her family berated her, but it wasn't the last time she went out. Far from it, from that day on. Whenever, she noticed a hatchling wasn't there. She would go looking for them and over the years got better at not only spotting traps, but seeing trappers before they saw her. She remembered the black dragons words, "We work together, because that way we can save more." She strived to help her protect hatchlings in the clan and taught hatchlings to see the traps as well.
So by the time she left to see if having a human partner was as helpful as the black dragon had made it sound, most of the dragons younger than here knew to be wary of the trappers, how to find the traps and trappers should someone disappear, and how to call her. Should her clan ever need her.
because unlike most of her classmates, she isn't used to being in her human form. The Academy has allowed her to stay in one of the dragon caves instead of a normal student room, at least until she gets more comfortable
