Ho man. Epidemia is my favorite in your whole lair. That rich red and those wonderful golds, that accent that is tasteful and works better than any apparel ever could. I'm mostly impressed she's wearing that halo and making it work because I've never seen a dragon do that. Her colors are perfect, her accent is perfect, just everything about her is perfect. I adore her, she is the queen of your lair, and that's not just my old Plague bias talking.

You have a lot of really stunning female skydancers and this absolutely stunning lady is a really good example of one. She looks so elegant and regal - it's such a nice, unique take on a plague rep!
Her colors mirror the plaguebringers, only toned down and it's stunning. That deep, dark red against the white capsule? Ah, amazing! The accent is really good on her, combined with her overall plague aesthetic it makes a lot of sense, again, it's such a fresh, interesting take on plague; the birth of something new and blooming among those who survive - at least that's the vibe I get from her with the floral motiefs going on on her!
The torn wings, but then the dark feathered wings too. It makes me think of corvids; smart and beautiful and compassionate, but traditionally associated with death and decay! This beautiful ladies makes me feel so many feelings, I love her!

I imagine she has really intelligent, gentle (maybe a little sorrowful) eyes

I also bet that people pick Epidemia all the time but she is just, one of the best plague reps I've seen. Usually plague reps tend to live up to the grotesque and the bright reds and festering wounds, but your skydancer is just so subtle. I'm sure if one were to glance over her, one would think she's a simple earth rep her colors are so dark. She's not violent like the festering plague dragons, she represent the latent diseases, the unseen and ignored symptoms of sickness, the grotesque yet equally mundane ways to die. Not all deaths are shocking and tragic, and she just lurks in the background like a grim reaper as the death plays itself out, before moving on to the next death. She's visited all over the plaguelands due to this, and she's seen it all. I'm sure she's traveled into the borders of the nearby elements to enact her deaths, because anything close to plague is still affected by it.

Epidemia is an interesting looking dragon, the atypical plague aesthetic but still a creepy and powerful looking dragon. Blood is always a gorgeous color with the rich reds it offers, and I see you plan for her to get python which I think is a great choice, as it deepens the color and provides a very nice pattern. The white capsule is an eyecatching addition but not out of place, particularly since all the red and brown tones are fairly close to neutral darkness which allows white to enter naturally. Personally, I think if you are willing to save for butterfly, I would do it, as the additional dark tones on her head and tail feathers really elevates the look and matches her primary better once python is on. Her accent and apparel make it less necessary for her wings though. I love how the dull, grey-blacks of the accent offset the richness of chocolate as a color and brings in some softer golds that border on brown and work really well with her look. While I think bright golds would work, she honestly looks better with the softer tones, allowing her natural beauty to take center stage. The flowerfall is a really nice addition, as it has just the right touch of color to bring some of the more red tones out of blood and the yellow tips bring the brighter tones from the gold. The halo also moves her look from 'demon or goddess' to 'ancient and powerful possibly undead being', which is what gave me the plague idea in the first place.
