people are so weird about self insert ocs actually. like why wouldn’t you want a made up little guy who’s like you except cooler and they get to live all your fantasies? what are you afraid of? having fun? free yourself
Have you guys considered how dragons would theoretically be able to use their fire to control burns and regulate vegetation growth. In turn, creating more soil litter? They would definitely be good wardens of the forest.
They would also able to use their fire to intentionally create updraft through rising hot air, which definitely solves the “too big to fly” problem.
There’s definitely more to dragon ecology that “burning things to death”
