WIP Water Dancer Ref. Sheet

Postby Asa Willow » Mon Jun 04, 2012 7:06 am

Water Dancers Reference Sheet


Summary

Water Dancers, or Hydrolacertilia, are commonly mistaken for dragons, but are actually a rare, mythical species of lizard. They usually dwell next to large bodies of water, but are also sometimes found in desserts. These animals are called Water Dancers because whenever there's a clear night sky, they transform into "water spirits", beings taking the shape of their usual bodies, and "dance" over the water. N

Usual Features

-Crests
-Tails roughly as long as the body
-Dorsal spines roughly the width of the legs
-webbed toes
-Tail fins or "flairs" roughly the size of the head
-"Cool" Colors such as blue, green, yellow-green (not complete yellow), purple, or on some very uncommon instances, black, grey, and white. Extremely rare instances include the colors red, orange, gold, silver, yellow, and pink.
-Markings include anything, most commonly stripes or spots that are a slight variation of the main color, with various colors of the fins, underbelly, eyes, etc.

Personalities

Most or all water jumpers are very noble and proud, and only bond to the owner and their friends and family. They can be trained as personal guards, seeing-eye pets, or anything else that you can depend on. They are fiercely loyal, especially if you adopt one at a young age. If you leave one for a long time or ditch it after it has bonded with you, it will seek you for the rest of it's life if necessary.
