PHYSIOLOGY
Purebred light dragons have thin and flexible scales that resemble velvet or fur. They often carry a set of antlers or a single split horn. Despite their docile appearance, their teeth are curved and ideal for tearing flesh. Their forelegs are typically cloven hooved. They have a thin, wiry tail that ends in a tuft of fur. They are said to resemble deer, zebra, antelope, or Kirin. Unless they are crossbred with a flighted element, they will only grace the fields and not the sky.
Free Trait: Heraldry
Default Physical Traits:
TEMPERAMENT
Their Riders tend to be aesthetically pleasing, charismatic, vain, or manipulative. Light Riders get a boost in all of these attributes after they have bonded with their dragon. Looking at a light Rider or their dragon can give a sense of euphoria, peace, and happiness. This strange aura doesn’t affect other light riders, dark riders, or their dragons. Their abilities make them exceptionally good at convincing others of their cause, which has plenty of drawbacks.
Preferred Rider Attributes:
- Charismatic
- Attractive
- Insufferable
- Vain
- Manipulative
- Narcissistic
- Sensitivity to Others
- Self-confidence
- Ambition
- Consistency
- Easily Bored
- Power-hungry
- Dramatic
LIGHT MAGIC
More than anything else, light dragons are capable of stunning illusions. They can appear invisible, gigantic, beautiful, and all other kinds of shapes. These illusions are not true shape shifting, and only caused by particularly tantalizing pheromones that the dragons give off. The illusions cannot physically affect the world, although a good Light dragon is able to weave a very convincing illusion that may not need to do any physical work of their own to get the job done.
They can’t exactly mind control, but they can heavily influence the thoughts and memories of others for a short amount of time. Temporary hypnosis is quite possible for them. On the physical level, Light dragons can use magic to gain enhanced agility and jumping skills. Finally, they are capable of glowing or generating balls of light near them once they have learned magic.

BASE COLOR RULES
Their most common colors are pastel hues or simply white, though this range is incredibly versatile. If you want to learn how to push the limit, just think of your dragon as having the Faded display trait. Here is a suggested selection of colors. Below you can find an in-depth example of Light Dragon palettes, though you do not need to pick directly from it. Click to view the full image.
