Alkali, a Hatchling

I suppose I'm coming back? After only a few posts I feel bad for leaving, and I hope I can still use my old character along with this one.

Personal Info
Name: Alkali
Alias: She has not yet earned any.
Age: 4 human years
Gender: Female
Sexuality: If she limited herself she'd be out of luck. Pan.
Personality: A rather irritable creature, Alkali has always had few friends, but few enemies as well, since she will often leave a confrontation abruptly before it escalates (if it's within her own tribe). She is prideful to the extreme, but will only actually fight dragons related to her, such as siblings and cousins, and dragons from other tribes. She is somewhat polite to those she doesn't know, and once she gets to know someone she can sometimes be quite rude, although unintentionally. She will often say things that seem rude, but she doesn't register it as such. Conversely, every word that is spoken to her is analyzed for insults to her and her rare friends.
Interests: As a hatchling, she likes to play pretending games, especially ones that have to do with fighting. Once she becomes a trainee, she'll show more interest in actual fighting. Otherwise, she likes to eat wild boar. She doesn't know what other things she likes quite yet.
Dislikes: Being rudely told and what not what to do
Fears: Being vulnerable or being left alone.

General Appearance
Height: As a hatchling, about 4 feet at the shoulder. When fully grown she'll be about 50.
Scales: A faded yellow-brown. The scales on her back are long and come to sharp points, while below the scales lighten up and are more like the belly scales of a snake.
Eyes: Near gold in color with slit pupils. Blinks horizontally.
Appearance: She is similar to a pagodin or an Ankylosaur in build, with a wide body absolutely covered in long, porcupine-like scales, able to stick up at will to make her appear larger. Two large, thick horns sprout backwards out of her head, and look similar to a cow's. Her muzzle is short and contains teeth lacking in depth, but making up in length. Some have corresponding slots on the upper and lower jaw since they are so long. She naturally looks a little prickly (in both meanings of the word), and once she grows older her rattle-like tail will continue to grow longer, yearly rings will mold into decade rings once she reaches her mid-fifties, then into century rings once she nears the four hundred mark. It often makes noise as she walks. She has short, stout, powerful legs with broad claws made for digging, but they can also be used as a weapon. Her wings, which also sport slightly smaller spiky scales, fold neatly into her sides. She has brown skin underneath every part of her body.

Tribe Information and Status
Tribe: Earthwings
Inheritance: Pure
Rank: Hatchling
Family: Her parents are still in the tribe, she just never imprinted on them. Her caretaker is Rhune.
Mate: N/A
Hatchlings: N/A

Skills and Abilities
Strengths: She is incredible at defending herself, as the sharp scales provide a nearly solid wall separating her from her opponent, and her low center of gravity keeps her grounded. Appropriately, she will never back down from a fight if challenged, and will keep a cool head during an argument. Human weapons often have no effect against her tough scales.
Special Abilities: Infectious Defense: The scales on her back and tail are more like quills than anything, and inside each of them are colonies of harmful bacteria, amoeba, or virus. If one breaks inside an opponent, they may become infected with that specific bug. She only becomes immune to her own quills after she falls ill to that certain strain and recovers, and the invaders then take up residence in one or a patch of certain quills. She can currently only spread seasonal allergies. Once a horn breaks off, it is up to chance is the scale will grow back with its "infection" still in place, as it takes about a week for them to grow back. This ability does not apply to her claws or horns.
Weaknesses: She is rather slow due to her short legs, and is a poor flyer. When her scales are raised to appear larger, patches of bare skin are exposed, if the enemy wants to brave her quills. She is extremely prideful and will not back down from what she believes in any circumstance once a serious enough feud has started.
Combat Style: She is a battering ram, first analyzing her opponent's tactics and striking at the opportune moment to gain the upper hand. If needed, she will curl into a ball and raise all the spikes on her body to defend herself.

Background
History: No one really knows or cares to tell her who her parents were, as her parents hadn't been around when she'd hatched. Her parents are still in the tribe, but they simply cannot determine which hatchlings is their own, as Alkali imprinted on the nearest caretaker, not them. Alkali assumes she's just an abandoned hatchlings and doesn't register the frantic parents as her own.
RP Sample: "Why can't we go outside?" Alkali stood in front of the older dragon indignantly, blocking their path with her own side-stepping. The other dragon pushed her aside and continued on their way, and the hatchling tried to follow them down the tunnel, but her legs were too short to keep up. Snorting, she turned away and headed home again, mumbling to herself. "Why isn't anybody giving a straight answer!" She lashed her tail, making the sound of an overgrown rattlesnake. It annoyed her to no end that no one took her seriously enough to answer her questions. Why couldn't she leave to tunnels like some of the adult dragons could? Why weren't they telling her anything?

You have her as being 20 years old, but it appears she is a Hatchling at the moment. Might want to fix that.

Also, welcome back!

bump! (fixed it)

First Approval.

Second approval! You're good to go ^^
