adultdesc
  • Adult Sunrise Dragons developed masterful control over their sun-like tails. Now they're able to adjust the intensity and wavelength of the light to attract or repulse other creatures. Sunrise Dragons enjoy living near the coast so they can direct wayward ships to safety, like lighthouses.
juvdesc
  • As Sunrise Dragons mature, the brilliant sun-like orbs on the tip of their tails glow brighter and brighter. This can be dangerous for young Sunrise Dragons. The light shines through most surfaces and can attract unwanted attention from predators and bothersome insects.
