New character, ha-ha!
Meet Maelith, a drake with a bit of a grudge against flying creatures like true dragons, griffins, and wyverns. Somewhat well armored on the front and top for ground combat, her underbelly is soft and more vulnerable. She wanders the forests searching for prey, and especially has a taste for winged beasts, but isn't picky either. Like more of my preds she has a high stomach capacity and durable innards to digest rowdy meals alive, and shows off her meals on her ample hips.
She is vulnerable to flanking and persistent air attack, though her armored upper body might make some lose interest instead of pressing the attack. when locked in a corridor or stuck on te ground she can present her armored front and deliver frightful headbutts and bites, assumign she doesn't takes the chance to counter an attack with a swallow.

I really admire the design of this character, the greens are a very nice touch and it honestly looks like she’d be a very effective species/ creature in her forest and swamp home. The horns work excellently with the design as well. The line work here is very well done and the picture is beautiful to look at. The colouring is also fantastic, I love how the eyes perfectly ‘pop’ out from the rest of the hues and grab your attention. The artist has done a simply glorious job on her. I’m not lying when I say this is probably one of my favourite dragon designs on this website. The only thing I’d say negatively if you can call it that, is her personality doesn’t really match her actions at all. You said in a reply in the second pic of her “what are you doing in my swamp” I believe that she’s very rude despite looking very nice. I will say that’s a nice subversion, but honestly without reading that you wouldn’t be able to tell. I’m not saying it’s a bad thing, but when you say a character is rude, then show them doing something that would be cruel and rude for them to do, while at the same time having every detail about the picture from their smiling face, to their wide eyes and overall warm appearance doesn’t really line up. Again, not a bad thing, just you may want to work on making her rudeness more evident in later pictures as right now despite what you say she still looks like a sweetheart.
Please don’t take any of that negatively, I love this character, her motivation, her design and everything about her. I’m just making a suggestion to make it a little clearer. Anyways, so sorry for making you read this, I look forward to seeing more of her.
Good luck, and thank you for reading!
