So, the story behind Serriss the Sapphire Dragon, I'm sure there's a few curious about her given the poll results this past weekend.
Serriss is one of 9 tirikan characters from a world called Pellea, it's a fifth dimensional universe star system they originated from so they are quite displaced and refugees in a universe where humans, of all creatures, exist! The tirikan are quite protective of human kind, and don't mind their two legged ground-bound neighbors at all.

@PaganMother horselike.
@DocLT2 yesh! I imagine dragons to be similar in expression as horses are with more catlike behaviors and body language with their tails and wings as extra limbs for expressing themselves
@PaganMother I think some of the accounts of dragons in Asian literature mention a horselike head so you're right on-point.
My hypothesis is the ancient Chinese invented their dragons to explain the dinosaur fossils in their western deserts.
@DocLT2 😳 Oddly I did a lot of study on dragon mythos for years as a kid and a teen to pick up on those commonalities, I thought it was pretty neat and adopted a lot of those aspects to my head canon of dragons in general 🙂
And yes I added alt flavor text for everyone that has sight issues. 🤗
