!!!Attention: This ref is very much temporary! My art program froze when I attempted to add text, and I had not saved my work in a while. I took this screenshot of part of the ref, and am using that for a while until I have the energy and willpower to redraw everything. I hope you all can live with the tiny image for a bit until then, thanks!

Either way, here's Luke! Loosely based on a human character of mine who isn't seen much on this site. I'll be drawing him in this form more in future <3

Although luke is actually a fire-elemental dragon, he has a huge affinity for water and a talent for freediving and swimming, and is therefore often mistaken for a water dragon.
He isn't afraid to admit to weaknesses and express fear and insecurities, sometimes at the cost of his reputation/masculinity, but really, it requires alot of strength to be honest like that.
He dislikes fighting, but has very high emotional intelligence, always knowing how to treat others so that they feel good, and always knowing how to diffuse conflict peacefully (mostly).
That's all I'll write for now. more to come with the final ref at some point haha
