[b]Optional: Why this dragon/outfit?[/b] Vindemia is all dressed up like the stories of magicians she heard as a hatchling, since she's trying to become one herself and figures magic-by-osmosis is at least plausible. She actually managed to attach gems to her wings and body by magic, but hasn't managed much since then.

@Animist It looks like apparel, at least, shows up after a while--I had to refresh my dragon's image about an hour later and it started working.
@Lundlaeva
FINALLY IT WORKS! :D

Gemini is dressed as Aleister Crowley, famous (infamous?) occultist and ceremonial magician. As one of the primary members of my clan's own little occult secret society, I thought the comparison would be very fitting! Also, I have a personal weakness for Ancient Egyptian-themed magic. :D

@Animist THANK GOODNESS! I was really worried that you weren't going to be able to enter. D:
I'm going to list this as a known issue under the notes. Sadly I don't think there's anything I can do about it, but maybe the refreshing trick will help a few people out. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Animist.

I've been trying lots of different things repeatedly over the past several hours to get it to work, but when I checked back in just now it just... worked. All of a sudden, without me having to do anything. I wonder what caused it?
Ehehe, oh goodness! You needn't have worried on my account, friend~! (Although I admit I was in such a rush to get it in under the deadline that I submitted it without bolding oops. I'll fix that real quick.)

Primula, congratulations - I loved your Penn and Teller entry from the moment I saw it, it was really clever to use the Golem as Teller - something I hadn't thought of and an excellent use of apparel! Great look overall, too.
Congratulations also to [i]all[/i] of the entrants. Your dragons are fabulous and fabulously dressed! It was so, so difficult to choose just one dragon to win the prize - they are all [i]brilliant[/i]. it was delightful reading your descriptions and seeing the costumes - I particularly enjoyed the Harry Potter, Discworld and Doctor Who entries! (Of course the Doctor counts. ;) ) Thank you so much for entering, and I hope to see your dragons return for the next round!

'Leftovers' from preparing the feast (plus a reminder of the hard-fought battles to bring the beasties down ...)
Venomscale Wing Guard
Apparel
Forged in venom, this wing guard is pieced together from the trophies of vanquished foes.
3700
Cobalt Deepsea Bulb
Apparel
A long filament, sprouting from the forehead. This one gives off a bright blue glow when danger is approaching.
1000
White Wooly Coat
Apparel
No tundras were harmed in the making of this wooly coat.
775
Red Rose Flowerfall
Apparel
A cascade of red rose petals fall around you at all times: inexplicable!
2400
* Veteran's Shoulder Scars
A costume fit for the feast itself:
Golden Birdskull Headdress
Apparel
A hefty skull headdress, decorated with golden tribal ribbons, threads, feathers, and beads. Wise dragons warn against the mystical and primal energies that surround pieces like this.
1400
Golden Birdskull Armband
Apparel
A feathered armband adorned with small skulls and gold beads. It is held together with braided twine and sinew.
1300
Golden Birdskull Legband
Apparel
An ornamental legband decorated with gold feathers and bones. It is held together with braided twine and sinew.
1250
Golden Birdskull Wingpiece
Apparel
A long spindle of twine, beaded with golden baubles and trinkets. There are feathers strung along each thread.
1350
Marigold Flowerfall
Apparel
A cascade of marigold petals constantly fall around you. Inexplicable!
Living in arcane-infused fields does strange things to Satin Mice. All that matters is they're magically delicious.

x99
White Lace Honeybee
Insect
The White Lace Honeybee rarely stings. Some say it's too ladylike for that.
15
2
x36
Algaestrider
Insect
They possess the ability to skip across the surface of the water - this one appears to be skipping away from you.
43

x99
Eel Larvae
Seafood
This poor unfortunate eel is dinner now.
42
4
x99
Watermelon
Plant
Though it has a land-growing cousin, this melon is cultivated exclusively in the Sea of a Thousand Currents.
42
4
x99
Herdbeast Hoof
Meat
The split hoof of a grazing creature. Large ones like this make excellent parchment weights.
15
4
x90
Crowntail Wanderer
Seafood
Once bred to produce brilliantly colored, decorative fins, an accidental reintroduction to the wild sees these jewels migrating to new territories.
