They've drawn a very tough and very smug-looking Adhara, who looks like she knows exactly how intimidating she must be all decked out to be ridden into battle. As if her size and scales and her natural weapons weren't intimidating enough, add some serious armor on top of it--sans helmet, for the moment--and one can only imagine what a wrecking ball she'd be on a battlefield! The sort of force of nature that'd make one think real hard before starting something, which is of course exactly the sort of reaction that makes her such a smug brat.

Dragons can hardly resist showing off, even dragons wearing saddles, and can you blame her? She looks so big and imposing and indestructible! Add an armed and armored rider nestled between her wings to give orders and cause more damage of their own, and you'll be left just hoping that rider can keep her under control, especially when she starts tauntingly musing about how big and tough she is and how much damage she could cause if she took it into her head to do so... Of course even when her rider does chide her or even give her a bop on the nose, she only looks even more amused with herself, like that was exactly the sort of reaction she was hoping to provoke in the first place!

Dragons. They're all such giant brats. No wonder some of them are so eager to wear a saddle...
