This Teacup dragon lives in ponds amongst lily pads and flowers. It hunts by floating on the water surface and gliding towards its prey undetected. The lily pad on its head covers its bright eyes from being spotted from the air making it harder to distinguish. Its webbed toes and padle like tail makes it excenlent at manouvering though the water.

Another difficult judging for me. This was a really hard decision.
But only one can be the Winner and after much thought and consideration I now congratulate DragonLoverHere who is now the new owner of this Teacup dragon. I loved the personality and overall idea and you did a great job on the drawing.

A True Lady...
Lys has been, since she first hatched, raised and groomed in a life of class and style. Parties, fashion, art, the little dragon was bred for it all and born in the heart of it; Paris, France. Not only that, but right in the reflection of the gorgeous Eiffel Tower.
Others who see her claim her to be a well tasted girl with no finer purpose than to live for the sophisticated life. And she lives to this idea fully. Her taste in clothes and little accessories always start trends among other dragons, and she is actually quite a people person. She isn't afraid to step out and show off a bit, though this terrifies others of her kind. For this, she often gains reward in invites to parties and tea constantly, which she attends in her finest and smiling her best.
Who's Not Afraid to get Dirty...
As much a lady she is, she despises the one stereotype of being only a hostess or party goer. This is the one thing she will refuse to be alone, priding herself to be more than your average dragon, and defies it in her painting and will to stand out. If she sees another dragon with prettier eyes, or a person with finer clothing, then she will become instantly jealous in her pride. And though she puts on a tight smile to them, there's a plot brewing in her head to get back to being the more superb. She is such a jealous girl, in fact, that she has become the most professional liar you can find so she can get out of tight spots.
In her schemes and behind the sweetness you can find a dragon who aspires for perfection. Sadly, she also believes she is perfection (don't tell her I said that!). She will look down upon anyone and everyone, pointing out their flaws with harsh honesty. And if you even breath a word about her flaws, she will become enraged and hide the flaw. This often also leads to her sulking and cursing much when home alone. But hey, what can you do; perfection isn't easy!
And has Quite a Few Quirks!
When not in chatter or plotting another's social demise, Lys actually has a side few know about. She will sit and gaze from a lily pad or from the reeds of her home at the Eiffel Tower, admiring it's beauty and perfection and dreaming of one day visiting the top. Not an easy task for a dragon like her, what with no wings and inability to slide through crowds without making herself known. In replacement to this, however, she has collected quite a few small tokens through her plots which she stores in the bank of her pond away from others eyes. Among them chiefly are many figurines of the tower of varying sizes, coins depicting the tower, the finest makeup and wardrobe for a dragon of her size, and a paint set.
The paint set is perhaps her favorite way of escape from the hustle and bustle of high class. Her tail, long and large, is the perfect brush. She will retreat and often paint the tower as she likes, perhaps selling it later as she can find no way to make the perfect image of it. But she paints a great deal of other things as well around her home and Paris. In her adventures to look for things to paint, she can't help but to spend a little time at book stores and libraries sniffing through the newest selections. She enjoys reading to the fullest, finding the greatest pleasure in romance novels. If she finds one she likes, all it takes is a flutter of her eyes and she has persuaded someone to buy it and carry it home for her. She keeps these in a box nearby under a willow, and can be found reading them by firefly light. She tries so hard to hide these three little things from her peers, knowing they are not at all ladylike and endanger her status as the perfect girl in the world.

Other (optional):
I wasn't looking to adopt a simple dragon, to be honest. I wanted to wait for something more elaborate to take the character I wanted to create and bring it to life. But I looked at her, and suddenly the story of a French Lily teacup sprang out of my head and begged me to apply. It was perfect; her little padded head, her tasteful simple colors so stylish. I think I have found the perfect girl in her!
