Midas defends Africa
You there! I demand my money back. Instead of what I ordered, I was delivered a pair of woolen socks- I can't wear these! They're much too warm for summer. Plus, they don't match; one is, how horrific, tattooed while the other is... I don't care how expensive or exotic a brand they are, I just want my good old sport socks!
She has two white feet, she lives in dragons throat, she has been disfigured and carries one wing.

Israfel was wanted!

demand my money back- at Isra's birth wanted to kill her. Not really a clue though, as it's very vague.
instead of what I ordered- never would have expected smoke to give both to mutant. again not much of a clue.
they don't match- is a tribaid, this clue was meant to allude to being wrong or freakish in some way
main clues:
much too warm for summer - Isra is hotheaded and also the daughter of sun god, and also has fire magic
tattooed- tribal markings on wings
expensive or exotic a brand- demigod, obviously very exotic :B
other not-so-clues:
woollen socks- generally very warm socks (see much too warm for summer clue)

0 | "demand my money back" - as you said, very vague and not really a clue. I never would have gotten "wanted to kill her" from "demand my money back." This really suggests an exchange of some sort.
0 | "instead of what I ordered" - as you said, very vague and not really a clue. This doesn't allude to a "mutant" in any way. It just makes me think of someone unwanted.
-1 | "they don't match" - though I feel that this is a step in the right direction, ultimately I don't feel that it worked for a color clue, or for a hint towards something "wrong or freakish."
+1 | "much too warm for summer" - acceptable fire hint.
+1 | "tattooed" - good appearance hint.
+1 | "expensive or exotic a brand" - demigods would indeed be exotic. Also, expensive in that light could mean valuable, as demigods arguably are.
2/3 - Fail.
Ultimately I feel that there was a lot of fluff and not very many actual clues. A lot of times when trying to hide clues, people tend to go wayyy overboard. You had some good things in here - the tattoo clue was your best, for sure, and the expensive/exotic brand had promise if put into the right context, but there was just too much for me.

+1, I got it okay.
tattooed- tribal markings on wings
0, this made sense to me, but her markings are not tribal. To me, it's very clearly henna with an Indian feature.
expensive or exotic a brand- demigod, obviously very exotic :B
+1, definitely exotic, she is one of a kind!
other not-so-clues:
woollen socks- generally very warm socks (see much too warm for summer clue)
The other ones you said yourself were not so clues, and I really didn't understand how they related anyway. 2/3 good ones for me, but not enough to pass.
Fail.
