Birch is the older of the two dragons. He prefers cooler temperatures then most dragons, but not nearly as cold as most Icewings, as he finds the ice kingdom much too cold. He has leafspeak, and his scales are cool when touched. He can stay in the air longer then his sister, and both can see well across long distances. Birch likes to read, and has a human friend named Dewdrop Pine is the younger of the two dragons. She loves cold temperatures, and the first time she went to the ice kingdom she said she could stay rolling in the snow forever. She has frostbreath, and both her and her brother have serrated claws. She is more agressive then her brother, and is very active, doing a lot of the hunting for their family.
Birch and Pine are a set of Leafwing/Icewing hybrids, the children of Walnut and Reindeer. Walnut was one of the leafwings that escaped with Princess Hazel. He flirted with one of Queen Snowfall's guards, Reindeer, always carefully out of the queen's sight. They fell in love, and Reindeer moved out of the Ice Kingdom to be with him. They live in sanctuary, in a tree hut Walnut made. Pine was named by Reindeer, after one of the few trees that lives up north, and Birch was named by Walnut, after his scale pattern.
