Talon

Parents: Gilda & Garble
Species: Dracogriff) (Dragon-Griffin Hybrid)
Cutiemark: N/A
Special talent: N/A
Occupation: Dragonlands territory/border patrol/guard
Nickname(s): Tali, Tal

Personality:

Talon is boundlessly competitive, combining her mother and father's ambitious attitudes. She is loud and blunt, as well as stubborn, very little taking time to listen to the opinions of other creatures/ponies and brute forcing her way through problems. She is, however, bold and fiercely loyal to the few she calls her friends. Still, her hot head can get the best of her from time to time, leading to outbursts at even her friends and leaving her fuming for a refractory period before she begrudgingly apologizes.

She loves to compete in just about anything, but racing is her favorite sport. The majority of ponies have a hard time keeping up with Tali when she really gets going, save for the son of Spitfire and Thunderlane, Hot Streak. Whenever she happens to get time off from her patrol duty, you can be sure Talon makes plans to visit her fast friend in Cloudsdale. She might whine and complain a bit if she loses, calling Hot Streak a showoff and demanding a rematch, but she's also just as likely to compliment form or some new technique.

She also likes to watch aerial shows, though she herself lacks the talent for it, or perhaps she's simply too bulky in body to be a very dextrous flier.

Trivia:

O Talon can breathe a bright, almost neon orange flame. This was discovered much to her mother's surprise when she recieved a face full of spark and smoke when Talon was fledgling. Garble laughed so hard he was speechless when he first saw the scorch marks and charred feathers on Gilda's face.
O Talon lived a surprisingly nomadic life, flown to and fro all across the Dragonlands and Griffinstone and in between before she was old enough to choose her own home.
O The spines on Talon's head are actually quite pliable and tend to flip and flop about as she flies.
O Talon kneeds like a housecat when she is particularly happy. A habit that has left many a mark on both of her parents' flanks.
