i loooove when dragons' outfits express something relevant to their lore, maybe something related to their profession or something special they carry with them, yknow?
i'd love to see yours (with explanations, if you please !!)
for instance, i've got dmitri. he's a conman who pretends to be mute, having "just" suffered some injury to his neck. he also pretends to be blind, hence his staff and goggles.

the lady of stone is entirely made of stone, so her apparel is meant to be literally just another carved part of her (except for her rose, which is also part of her lore)

despite kind of getting lost in her design, i had to include a citrine ring and necklace in florinia's fit bc she's quite literally a jeweler and it would be weird if she didn't have them!

I think that's literally every (modern) dragon in my lair, but let's see, I'll point out some of the more interesting ones.

Zuël here has a job that involves keeping books from escaping his library. Those enchanted books are damn mischevious.

Virox is a plague warrior that kinda went mad when his charge - the bird companion - died and he raised it from the dead and he refuses to accept that he already failed his guardian duties centuries ago.

Come visit my lore lair! It's a fun time here.
Something strange is happening on Sornieth. All across the world, dragons have begun to be born with multiple elements. How? Why? As dragons all across Sornieth takes notice, the wheel of fate begins to turn, as one fae's search for her mysterious origins leads her down a path that could change Sornieth forever.
oh these are fun! i do quite enjoy integrating stuff like this, though i don't do it as much as i want to because most of my outfits are thrown together from what i have in my hoard rather than specifically curated
first off: all my scribes have claw extension apparel that they use as pens :]
it seems we are old fashioned in this lair and use dip pens regardless of our actual technological level...
this is Bigby, my linguist!

Tannin, a restaurant proprietor, has a ledger she keeps with her at all times. she's very intense about it. like she is about most things.

Samira is kind of like yours, she's a lapidary so i gave her some pretty jewelry!

Ukhai has great instincts for archery, but quite literally could not aim to save her life without those glasses...

and Cerys here is my ultimate prop dragon. her suit of armor is inhabited by the spirit of a deceased Fae smith who helps to protect her and her family. she doesn't know exactly why, or whether this aid is conditional.

Love the stories in your examples, I’ve left them all a like!
Some of mine:
Skyfall’s enchanted gloves are what enable her to “see” to do her work, as she is visually impaired:

I have plenty! But here's a few I don't talk about much!

^ Not really lore relevant [i]apparel[/i], since Ambrosia is an ancient, but it is a lore-relevant [i]skin[/i]! She's single headed Aberration and a craftswoman, who is quite obsessed with sculpting her "other-half"
[url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/88163634][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/881637/88163634_350.png[/img][/url]
^ Senko's armor is technically a part of him! He can "see" through their eyes - making it pretty tricky to sneak up on him
[url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/52067212][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/520673/52067212_350.png[/img][/url]
^ And Decipher here was born in unstable Arcane waters, which is the reason for his Prismatic Crystalscales and the pigment in his eyes! Within the cracks of the crystalscales, seaweed and coral began to grow out (the coral crown) giving him that "mane" (which seamlessly flows even on land!) He is also mainly underwater, and is a warrior who fights with a trident!

My girl Tsillah here is really the only one whose outfit inspired her lore, but she's technically a spirit inhabiting her own corpse after she died out in the snowy wastes, hence the outfit redesign in her bio haha

I also have my girl buccaneer who is a dragon version of my D&D character (also named Buccaneer) who's a dragonborn ex-soldier now-pirate barbarian

and lastly there's Shatter, who is basically just a dragon version of the animated statue familiar. I modeled her after an overgrown statue of athena :3

I have Nightfall, the head priestess of my clan, she comunicates with shadow momma trough the use of the ghost flames, which she also finds comforting and shooting.

Ikaros. that's it ikaros from the old legends but he still has some more lore. He now is a teacher and mentor to younger dragons.

Siorys, flight teacher for the hatchlings, lifelong partner of Nightfall. Was running from his light clan and got caught in a really bad storm as a young dragon.

And I guess I'll add Shadowthrone, he's got a funny number in his id, and the bio I've ever written for him is "pure shadow". So I guess he was somehow evoked in a ritual that went wrong.

citrine is a blacksmith and a mechanic, the humble apron is meant to look like a welding apron, and the armor and darksteel necklace she made herself
