A Symbol for Draconic
With the help and input of Otherconnect discord community, I have drafted up a symbol for draconic.

What is draconic?
An umbrella term that encompasses all individuals with a dragon or dragon-like identity or who hold a personal connection to something dragon.
It is to represent the fluidity and abstract that is draconity. To answer the question, “what is a dragon?” The answer is the below quote, as referenced by Orion Scribner(@frameacloud)’s username.
“It is no more possible to find the definitive dragon than it would be to frame a cloud formation. - Judy Allen & Jeanne Griffiths, The Book of the Dragon”
The simple fact is that--you can’t define a dragon. [1][2] Also more rant on dragons aren't always this or that, dragon is a dragon is a dragon, more diverse way dragon can be.
Following that thought, this symbol is also in reference to “dragons are fish.” [3][4][5]

With the ideas behind the symbolism in mind, let’s talk about symbols.
