Right off the bat I just want to mention that it looks like you have put so much thought and care into designing each and every dragon in your lair. They all look so unique and personable in their own way, so it was definitely hard choosing seven. I did include a bonus dragon near the end c:

Louhetar

Louhetar immediately drew me in. the accent choice is stunning and gives great contrast to her reds and grays. I want to admire the sheer amount of spikes we get not only from her silhouette as a ridgeback, but with her bramble mantle item. It’s so hard to believe she’s only wearing 6 apparel items, because you have made the most of the space by including your accent as well. The little snippet of lore in her bio gives us just a taste of her personality-- and honestly I’m hooked.

Yule

With Yule, I want to point out how the use of white stained to make pthalo a muted wintery palette is genius. Muted is exactly the feeling we get in winter when the snow dampens sound and everything has frosted over, and Yule encapsulates that perfectly. As for his Lore I really like how you’ve intertwined it with other dragons-- Brei and a nocturne hatchling. And his job where he sells mistletoe and hot cocoa gives me a sense of just how warm and welcoming Yule is. The muted browns in his color palette really do remind me of a nice, milky cocoa.

Aker

I may have a soft spot for Wildclaws, but Aker just blows me away. The dusty moonlit accent just puts me RIGHT into a western setting with Aker. The hair and roses really remind me of Kissin’ Kate Barlow from the movie Holes-- not sure if you were going for that vibe with Aker, but that character is near and dear to my nostalgia, so Aker’s design is just as bad ass. It may be such a minor detail, but I really enjoy the blue eye and how it just contrasts nicely with this dragon. A very well done dragon indeed.

Matcha

Matcha is a busy dragon, and I mean that in the BEST way possible. It works because it’s all so cohesive. She’s so intricate that I could honestly stare at her for hours and keep finding details that I love about her. And I really like how her pistachio matches with her gladegift ambassador familiar! The two are definitely peas in a pod. And omg she’s a wlw dragon <3 Honestly your little lore/personality snippets are giving me so much life. Matcha is a true blessing.

Spicy

Oh my goodness what can I say about this lad. I’m a complete sucker for complementary colors. Spicy really brings the heat! Blue is also great for this guy because blue flames burn hotter. I’m absolutely losing my mind over everything about this dragon. I LOVE how the little lava droplets on the accent dip down into the underside of the tail. The little blue gem on the forehead and the lanterns really bring together his whole theme and I love imagining him at his little tavern with his partner playing the lute. I’m not crying I swear

Prisca

I am always blown away by users who take xyz colored dragons and turn them into something as eye-catching as Prisca. Honey, she has the RANGE. She looks like she could kill me, get away with it, and leave no trace behind except for the sweet fragrance of roses. Her design is deadly without sacrificing femininity and, excuse me while I pick my jaw off the floor, I’m 100% here for it.

Fey

Fey’s design is just so fun to look at. The Metallic/Alloy reminds me of the silky fabric that they use for halloween costumes, and of course the use of orange ghost to get those lovely purples in is *chefs kiss* icing on the halloween themed cake. I also really enjoy your use of the Riot vulture and Autumn leaves, it really just drives this whole look home. And with Fey being a Mpose Tundra, we get that mischievous side eye look that I love so much. This dragon is such a treat.
