Tuli

A MudWing folk hero considered the first blood-egg dragon and the centre of many popular legends. Stories about him range from his hatching in a volcano to his mysterious vanishing. Many MudWings believe that he will return to save the tribe in its darkest hour.

Appearance
Though no living dragon has seen Tuli, he is been described as enormous, muscular, and brilliant - what every MudWing should be. Most stories claim Tuli is a red-brown MudWing, but one describes him as, "Singed black by the fires he emerged from," in reference to a legend about his birth.

Birth
Tuli's mother was burdened by too many eggs for her to possibly be able to manage, so she carried some of them off into the mountains. She dropped them, knowing they would smash into a thousand tiny bits of eggshell; but little did she know that one of them, instead of slamming into the side of a mountain, had plunged into a bubbling volcano.

There his blood-red eggshell kept him safe from the heat, and when it came time for him to hatch, the newborn dragonet swam out of the magma as though it were simply water. He was stumbled upon shortly after by a pair of SkyWing dragonets, and, apparently believing them to be his siblings, 'adopted' them and followed them around.

When the SkyWing dragonets took him to their family home, their parents took Tuli in and raised him.
