Dragon Personality: Here’s a dragon with more than its fair share of confidence. First, this dragon is larger than average for its color, a fact it shamelessly takes advantage of by looming over those that it can (and mentally sulking when it can't). It’s also a pretty good-looking dragon and aware of that fact, and seems interested in having and gaining the affections only of other good-looking dragons.
It’s confidence extends to its decision-making capabilities. It doesn't hesitate to take charge of the situation and usually believes that what it’s doing is right. It greatly prefers leading to following – following is for lesser dragons – and will not be content with a lowly position; oh, it’ll do its job, but it’ll always seek to rise through the ranks. Here is where its confidence most obviously tends towards arrogance, because is also not so keen to listen to the advice of others, save its rider.
While this dragon’s borderline arrogance seems like it should seem insufferable, it can actually be pretty nice if you fit within its mentally-established boxes. Higher dragons are supposed to act with a sort of honor and dignity, and if they act in a way unbefitting their prestige then he views them with a sort of disapproval and disappointment. Meanwhile, lesser dragon are supposed to accept their place, but that does not mean that this dragon will tolerate higher dragon bullying lesser dragons. No, higher dragons should never bully unless absolutely necessary, and proper lesser dragons protection from those higher dragons that have forgotten themselves. Although its attitude is definitely patronizing and paternalistic, this dragon can be a good friend and will stand up in the face of perceived injustices.
Finally, its rider. This dragon’s rider is key in keeping this dragon’s confidence/arrogance from getting it in trouble. Of course, that itself can cause problems, as this dragon thinks it has the best rider ever – obviously; that’s why it picked them – and is very protective of them. While dragons are hardwired not to harm humans, this dragon is very protective of its rider. If it feels its rider is being too deeply slighted, or is being threatened, it will become very aggressive and in-your-face.
Any Notes: Inspired by Arcanine (Pokemon). If this dragon is in the same clutch as the Mightyena dragon, they'd probably snipe at each other and have a "I may give my sibling grief, but only I get to" relationship.

Dragon Personality: Here is a dragon that is a definite team-player. It can and will lead if asked or if necessary, but it can follow just as easily. It has a subtle, quiet confidence, that enforces the idea that it does what has to be done, and that doing so doesn’t make any more or less of a dragon. To it, actions speak far louder than words, and it will judge others by what they do rather then what they say. For this reason, it does not automatically look down on any other dragons, but rather waits for them to prove themselves, one way or the other.
This dragon can work in teams as well as on its own. In fact, it can get quite a lot done working on its own, but that’s because this dragon has “blinder syndrome,” meaning it becomes engrossed in what it’s doing. It gets so deep into its work that it falls out of touch with the rest of the world, losing track of time and, if its rider doesn’t keep an eye on it, it will work itself to exhaustion.
Its calm, steadfast demeanor and powerful work ethic means that it will do even the most unpleasant duties. It can provide support and stability whenever need and is highly dependable. It can actually be a bit stubborn, quietly refusing to let injustices slide. Overall, it’s a good dragon to have at your side in your time of need.
