Water Info
General
Water dragons don't
have wings and, except for the water dragons, they don't have arms and legs.
In stead they have flippers!
The Lyrian Water dragons (as well as their southern counterparts) dwell in
the great ocean covering the planet. These gentle dragons mostly live in
group, hunting and playing together. In summer they are seen all along the
coasts of the Northern continent, but in Winter they migrate to the warmer
equatorial seas.
Water dragons have a way of willing the water to do their bidding. If
trained properly they can outskill a Spirit that had the same training
because the Water dragons know the spirit of the sea.
Types
1. Water
Appearance:
Water dragons are sea-blue in
colour with green accents. They are long and versatile with a paddle like
tail they use for attaining high speeds under water. In
stead of hair or crest they have a large head-fin that cleaves the water when
they swim through the sea.
As said before they are the only water dragons with limbs.
Water dragons are highly intelligent. They have been known to set big traps
to catch small fish and other tasty marine
food.
Personality: Water
dragons are very friendly and peaceful. They have a 'Don't worry, Be
happy' attitude and need bonders with a good view of what the future
might bring. Many a Water has found him/herself in trouble because
they didn't think ahead. Waters are very trusting and can be hurt immensely
(more so than the others) if you abandon them.
Size:
Small
and Agile
2. Dolphin
Appearance:
Dolphin dragons are very large
grey dragons. They can swim fast currents without much problems and like
to show off their strength. Dolphin dragons are always happy. Their big
bright eyes have that twinkle you only get when you're happy. It doesn't
matter if they are trying to get out of a heavy storm or playing in calm
waters, all is play for the dolphins! Their favourite food are
fish and shrimps.
Personality: Dolphin
dragons are very loyal creatures. Once they
bond they will worship there rider and never doubt there actions. They
can be a handful at times because they are very playful. They are very
friendly and will risk there life to save anybody lost at sea.
Dolphin Dragons have very good hearing brought on by their moveable
ears. Their bonds are often equipped with small whistles that can call
them from miles out of shore.
Size:
Big
3. Turtle
Appearance:
Turtle dragons, like real
turtles, are greenish with a camouflaged hide and a tough shell. Like
turtles their shells consist of layers of extra thick hide that makes
them nearly indestructible.
They are the strongest amongst the water dragons, even overpowering the
large seaweeds. It is not uncommon that they break rocks and enlarge
cavern entrances to find their favourite food: shrimp
and oysters.
Turtles have very distinctive eyes. They are deep orange, filtering
light to make the underwater world look like a sunfilled day. Their
golden eyes also show a strange intelligence. A knowing perhaps. They
are not very talkative so it is uncertain if they are just good guessers
or really do posses a knowledge of the future.
Personality:
Turtle dragons are shy at first contact, but you
can always win there trust by offering them some nice vegetables. They
are always hungry and like sunning on river rocks. When you scare a
turtle dragon they will hide quickly under there indestructible shell.
Turtle dragons come ashore to lay eggs. They swim upstream into the
broad rivers and spend their summer in the shallow water. In Winter
however, they migrate as any water dragon.
Size:
Medium
(can differ depending on age and care)
4. Coral
Appearance:
Coral dragons are very small
and fast, making them ideal to roam through the reeves and hunt for the
small coral-eating
parasites that like to destroy their habitat.
Coral Dragons are covered in some coral-like texture and come in a range
of different colours, ranging from Tropical Orange to Icy Blue and Deep
Lavender. It is not uncommon for
sudden strange colour mutations to appear.
Personality:
Coral dragons like to be in the centre of
attention. As their colour suggests they are almost always happy and
can often be found playing hide and seek in the great reeves around the
Northern continent. Coral dragons almost always live in group. They
easily become sad when they are alone. Corals are very curious and often get in trouble
because of it.
Size: Tiny
(multiple bonding frequent)
5. Webbed
Appearance:
Webbed dragons are blue all
over. Their skin is a deep indigo with lighter tiger stripes running all across
it. Their eyes are a very bright kind of cyan that can pierce right
through water, they have an excellent sight. The webs on their head and
their paddle-like tail are marine blue. They are picky eaters, only
eating the best food in the sea.
The best fish, the best seaweeds, etc.
Personality:
Webbed dragons are very fast and strong. They like
to race and swim against the current. They like to gamble just to make
life more interesting. There are even stories of Webbed dragons betting
there own life and even their rider's, and getting away with it too!
Size:
Medium,
Slender
6. Seaweed
Appearance:
Seaweed dragons are large
dragons that are well adapted for living on great depths. Their hides are
black with blue shades on fins and back. Their eyes a brilliant yellow, the same
yellow that blooms on their large seaweed-like tentacles when a female
is pregnant. These seaweed tentacles aren't real seaweed. They are however close enough
to the real thing for small
plankton, their favourite food, to
live in it
Personality:
Seaweed dragons were the last water dragons discovered in the great
ocean. There size enables them to live far under the surface in the
almost black sea where they like to hide posing as seaweed. They were
only discovered after years of legends of giant dragons living in the
sea, when somebody finally went out to look for them.
Size: Large
