This is the dragon's "fact sheet" - basic information about them. This can be prose or a sidebar, whatever works. The type of food determines the information added to the profile:
[emoji=meat size=1] - Three words or a short quote to describe dragon's personality
[emoji=seafood size=1] - Describe the dragon's role in the clan
[emoji=insect size=1] - One strength, one weakness
[emoji=plant size=1] - Favourite item(s)
If a dragon has no name, naming the dragon takes precedence.

[i]Honorwing has always been the bravest and sternest of his siblings. Even when he had just been a Fae, he was always the one to stand guard. When he found problems, he would never go after them alone, unlike several of his siblings. And when he was forced to fight alone, he showed a tactical mind that far outstripped everyone else in the Clan.
And yet not once had he ever considered that he might be the one to be called heir of the Clan. In fact, he had shown such panic the one time the thought had been brought up that he'd gone on a week-long patrol of the area.
It wasn't that he didn't mind being in charge, but rather that he would rather not be the final decision maker.[/i]

[font=Garamond][size=5]First pull is a trinket with 5 stars, which mean 250 words of lore... for a dragon I haven't really thought about. Great![/font][/size]

[size=4][i]Maldwyn hatched alone, but that didn't stop him from creating friendships and relationships across all the flights. Easily described as a 'social butterfly,' much like one he flits from place to place easily, the only flight he ever really avoided being his birth flight of Arcane. Not because he had bad blood there, but rather because it just seemed boring. There were so many other places to explore and investigate throughout the other ten flights that he'd never felt the need to return.
Of course, it turned out that the one time he did return to his home flight was when he ran across the most interesting thing of all. Or rather, dragon. Something about her had captivated him from the moment he had first seen her.
He first saw her in one of the markets, bargaining with a trader for some materials for her clan. She'd caught his attention first for the shimmer she'd been named after and then for her voice. It wasn't a singer's voice, of which he'd heard many, nor a voice that grated on the ears, but rather something in between. Yet to him, it had sounded like the most beautiful of voices.
According to the friend he'd been talking to, he'd stopped and stared like a love-struck idiot. It had taken someone walking into him to jolt him out of it. He hadn't recovered from his stumble until after she'd moved. And from then on he had decided that he had to talk to her at least once before he left.[/i][/size]
