#Personality ;
The most important part of Darling is her intensive search for claws on learning. Instead of learning by the books, she wants to experience and practice what she is learning. She tends to carry herself with a grace and poise not usually carried by the stereotypical dragon. Deep within her and on the surface is a cat like curiosity. Once she finds something she is interested in, she dives head first into it. And why not? Dragon scales and skeletal structure allow for a wee bit of recklessness. This dive into curiosity does have a serious weakness. Once she learns something, she never forgets it, even if it is wrong. With that comes the lessons of her father who taught her all about ponies.
Her knowledge is irrefutable. If someone brings up evidence that circumvents what she ahs learned about a subject, her mind will figure out how it validates her ironclad knowledge instead of accepting a new fact. Her father, or Pepaw, Instilled a deep respect for the ponies who specialize in controlling light and fearing the shadow casters. Her journey is all about furthering ehr education and learning more than her Pepaw could teach her. One of the most imortant things her Pepa has taught her about the ponies is that they never lie or exaggerate. Thier words are extremely precise.
#History ;
Fifty years ago a lone dragon egg survived a nest raid by another group of dragons and hatched. What came crawling from the egg was a small light pink wyrmling that looked upon these dark red dragons. Just before being engulfed in the dark flames of thier breath, she was swept away by her father, while her mother shileded them from the blast. Her mother became so injured, she could no longer fly. The small family had to retreat into a subterranian cave. With only half of their original hoard, Mema and Pepa started to teach her about the Dragon's Greed and the Virtues of the Ponies.
Thier daily walks to the mountain side to gather sunlight started to build her curiosity. She even started to see these ponies her father talked so much about. Eventually she even managed to get her claws on some of the books they loved to read. In it she ready about different jobs, magical abilities, and "Special Talents." This deeply interested her. The concept of Cutie Marks and how they appeared when one realized thier special unique destiny. She wanted her own cutie mark more than anything.
As the decades passed, she strengthened her breath, flight, and knowledge, keeping a modest hoard of gems and pony material. The gems she didn't really care much about, just a sotckpile of snacks and barter material. What she got from the ponies, by trade or found on the ground after they ran away, was her treasure. Her centerpiece was the Book a pony wrote about dragons. After she finished reading it, she never let it leave her side.
Eventually she proved to her Pepa that she was strong enough to find her own lair. She packed her small hoard into a series of three skycarts and left to find a place of her own. She sought a place near Canterlot. Surely a mountain as big as that had to have a decent structure for either a natural cave or a burrowed lair.

#Sample RP ;
As night fell on the road, Darling Jewel, landed her carts and pulled them into a circle. She had plenty of energy to continue, but she wouldn't keep her same pace without the Sun illuminating the sky. With her wagons in a circle, she pushed the lead cart into the center and climbed on top. She grabbed up her favorite book and placed it in the location one would put a pillow. Today she ahd quite a flight, she even seemed to catch the notice of some pegasi in blue suits. What were those about? Well it would be a question to explore after she made her lair.
Her tail pushed into the pile of gems. She didn't know why she kept that old childhood habit, but it remained. It comforted her. Her wingfins spread out wide enough to cover her bed pile. Being a solar dragon had it's perks. When the sun rose, she would instantly be energized enought to start right out on her journey to Canterlot. But there was the point that she was a heavy sleeper and couldn't exactly protect her hoard while she slept. A catch 22 it would seem. It was on nights like this on the road that she understood what she would need for a lair.
