Battlewinner

Battlewinner was an adult female NightWing who was introduced in The Dark Secret. Before the NightWing Exodus, she was the ruler of the NightWings and was described in A NightWing Guide to the Dragons of Pyrrhia to be "a closely guarded secret." She froze to death after leaving her lava cauldron in an attempt to attack Glory and Starflight.

Appearance
Battlewinner had black scales that gleamed like polished ebony and seemed to emit white steam. Her eyes were dark with a glint of icy blue in their depths, and two of her teeth were also pale blue, appearing more like icicles than regular teeth. Her throat and black tongue were lined with pale blue frost, in patterns that glinted and swirled and were feathery or sharp. She had heavy shoulders, a thickset neck, a battle-scarred snout, glistening claws, and a thick head. She was massive, as big as Morrowseer, and had a creaky, quiet, rough, and eerie voice, like claws scraping on ice several caves away, as well as a barking laugh. Whenever she emerged from her cauldron, she glowed horribly, with lava dripping between her scales and claws.

Personality
Battlewinner could be considered cunning and manipulative, as she helped create the dragonet prophecy in order to find a new home for the NightWings. She was also shown as cruel when she ordered Vengeance to be thrown into lava for upsetting her. She may have also been slightly insane or impulsive, as she lunged out of her lava cauldron to attack Glory and Starflight, despite knowing that she would die.

Greatness
Greatness was Battlewinner's only daughter and heir to the NightWing throne. Battlewinner wasn't impressed by Greatness, calling her cowardly and a terrible queen. This was true, however, as Greatness was one of the first who fled into the tunnel, ahead of the rest of her tribe.

Morrowseer
Morrowseer was Battlewinner's most trusted advisor as shown in The Dark Secret and Assassin. They came up with the dragonet prophecy together.
