Meet Aerium! A blue and grey western dragon with dipstick legs, green eyes, and a glorious set of striped wings. Unlike most dragons, he tends to be much more passive and agreeable, some might even dare to say submissive. This is primarily due to his unusual upbringing, being raised by bipeds in an anthro society after they came across his egg with no dragons seemingly there to guard it. However, just because he doesn't share the same dangerous pride as most other dragons, don't get the idea he won't bite. Mess with him and you'll still end up scorched, bitten, or worse, he's still a dragon. Just because you seem him wearing a bridle doesn't mean he lets just anyone jump on his back. If he knows you, and trusts you, then he may let you ride on him, maybe even control him. If he doesn't, don't even try, lest you end up with one of the aforementioned injuries.

He shares many of the same instincts as dragons. He loves to hunt, be it fish, deer, or anything else prey. He of course loves to fly, with or without passengers. He enjoys shiny things, particularly precious metals. One more thing he absolutely adores is swimming. Playing in the water, diving in from the sky, if it involves having fun in water, he's in. May even make you think he's part fish, but make no mistake, Aerium is a full blooded dragon, just with a few quirks that set him apart from others. The most obvious being his big red collar with a shiny round silver tag. This was given to him by those anthro bipeds that raised him, as mentioned before. He always wears it, every hour of every day. You'd be hard pressed to find him without it. He keeps it firmly around his neck to remember his adoptive parents after he was let loose in his own cave once he became too large for their house. Try and take it off and you will unquestionably end up hurt. He isn't violent however, you can come up to him and talk to him just fine without threat of injury. Just don't sneak into his cave, he wouldn't take that too kindly. So why don't you go ahead and say hi? He won't bite, most likely.
