So it's cynder day and I actually really liked cynder as a kid. 
She was headstrong, distrustful, sassy, and recovering from trauma caused by abuse that has been her life. A good balance to Spyro's trusting curious nature, and sparx's  constant jokes. All the character were young and trying to find their place in a warscape and probably didn't by the end of the game. But they had a world to save and hope for the best for them after the events of the game.

Anyways this version of Cynder I've just gone ahead and tweaked the design just a touch. Giving her stripes so the markings seem a touch more natural to her. In the stray stars world she'd probably be a Valor guard officer. She is most likely a sound dragon. She's still gotten into a few bad scuffles over the years but is a very capable officer. Gotta love Au headcannons.
