Hello, my beautiful biscuits!
So, first of all, I'd like to thank you all for watching me, you have no idea how happy it makes me knowing that people around the world have seen my art and enjoy it!
Thank you.
~~~
Now, the contest:
BACKSTORY
By now you should know that Aurora was not originally made for the Wings of Fire universe. She is one of the two main protagonists in my book, and at the time of making this account, I didn't have any OCs, so I just used Aurora.
Something else that you should know, is that Aurora has a sister. And that sister is Amber, however, she does not yet exist in the land of Pyrrhia, but rather is still stuck on the far off planet, Galiphon.
Months previously, a portal opened up, and thinking it lead back to Earth, Aurora went through it. She was gone before anyone else even noticed the portal. Amber looked just in time to see her beloved sister's tail pass through right before the portal closed.
From that moment on, Aurora's appearance changed, her memories began to fade, and her old life was completely lost. The little sister that Amber fought so long to protect now gone, no way of getting her back....
Until one day, 362 Earth days after Aurora foolishly went through the portal, it opened again. And it would stay open for another 35 days, enough time for Amber to pass through, find her sister and bring her home.
She hugged her mate goodbye, and began the journey of finding her missing sister.
As soon as she passed through to the other side, she was completely different. She looked different, she felt different, she started to act different. She was no longer a smooth-scaled yellow, red and orange Fire, Water hybrid, now, now she was a rough SkyWing, SeaWing hybrid. Her wings felt bigger than before, she felt taller too.
She looked down at herself and wondered if Aurora had gone through a similar change. Then the worried thoughts came pouring in... How can I ever find her? Where even IS this place? It certainly isn't Earth.... Will the portal stay open long enough for me to find her and bring her back? What if...
What if she doesn't want to go back...?
She pushed these thoughts aside and set out to the mountains in the north, there was no way of knowing what way Aurora went, or even if the portal had led her to the same place as it did for her sister.
Then a new thought came to mind... Can I still turn to my human form? She then started the morphing process, and to her relief, it worked. Good, She thought. That means there is one other dragon in this world who can do that. All I have to do is find her, and I'll have my sister back!
END

Thank you all again for watching and getting us this far.
I'm really thankful for all of you.
(A random thing Amber said about her transformation:
"What the...?" *flicks ears* "I have ears now!"
Because her true dragon form has lizard ears rather than outer ears like the WoF dragons have.)

Extra random stuff that doesn't matter to the contest, but is still relevant:
(A random thing Amber said about her transformation:
"What the...?" *flicks ears* "I have ears now!"

The above backstory is of course not canon to the actual story I'm writing about Amber and Aurora, because that would seriously break some copyright laws. However, there is actually a portal involved in the story....
The planet "Galiphorn" is a reference to Doctor Who (lol). Gallifrey, Galiphorn, see? Not a super obvious reference, but it is one.
Galiphorn is based on a real planet.
Galiphorn has 385 days in a year, with 11 months consisting of 35 days each, which is why this contest is open for 35 days total.
Bye!

And as for what she looks like as a WoF dragon in terms of lineart and shape, try to combine how she looks with how a SkyWing/SeaWing would look.
The second link I gave you is (somewhat) more accurate to how she looks, but the first link would match better with the book series, whether you add the elongated wing-elbow joint or not is up to you.
And the best picture from the first ref sheet: Amber References
Is the one on the bottom left.
