Description
I haven't given it a name yet, I saw it in a dream/vision. Still need to figure out what to call them, might be one of my looks, cause I have 4 eyes instead of 2. ^.=.^My friend drew it up for me from sketches I've made. Awesome no?
DO NOT USE UNLESS WITH PERMISSION. ASK FIRST!
Info:
1 and 2 both deal with the hood mechanic. 1 is when the hood is open. There are several spots on the hood and along the body that give off a glow when the dragon is threatened. The dragon’s eyes glow as well, adding more to the ruse. This gives it the appearance of having multiple eyes, thus scaring smaller animals and would be attackers away. 2 is when the hood is closed and the dragon is at peace.
3 deals with the hands. Each member of the species have five digits on each hand and all have black claws. Very rarely do you see an individual with different colored claws, but it has been known to happen. Two digits on the hands almost always have the lighter secondary markings on them. The upper arms are mainly used for grabbing and holding objects and food, while the lower limbs are for movement.
4 is a close-up of the forehead and eyes. Each dragon has four eyes and the color determines what color markings the dragon will have later in life. All offspring are born the pale cream color and do not obtain their markings well into their second year of life when they reach adolescents. The markings are always two variations of the eye color and can vary somewhat between individuals. However, the eye drop markings are always present.
5 is the full body shot. All dragons have “hood flaps” on their limbs and tail. This is because when the dragon feels threatened into running or wishes to travel faster, it will flatten it’s body and glide away. The tail acts like a rudder and helps control it’s speed and direction during flight. In order to glide longer and faster, the bones are hollow and light-weight, yet very durable.
Since it is a lithe creature, it is not one of the stronger dragon species. However, it can be rather quick and many are very wise. Most do not grow taller then a full grown man, but their width stretches anywhere from 10 to 20 feet long from the tip of its nose to the end of its tail. They are known to feed on both animals and vegetation, though preference varies on individual tastes and personality.
Some are very good swimmers and will spend a lot of time in the water. Those who witness this dragon swimming in water often mistake them for sea serpents coming into the mainland due to the speed at which they swim at. If not swimming, many will sunbathe in clearings large enough for them or spend time lurking up in large trees.

The glowing eyes and hood make sence in the wild. This style reminds me of Samurai Jack.
