Sun Dragons get their name from the way light makes their eyes shine. They are the most commonly found of the Bright Eyed Creatures. They are all brightly colored, but colors and patterns change with each hatching. A Sun Dragon’s favorite thing to do is to bask on a rock in a brightly lit spot.
Some of the available Sun Dragons have just sprouted wings. This means they’re ready to fly, but not strong enough to get very far.
A few of the Sun Dragons have decided to bask on magnetic rocks. They’re hoping to use the magnets to create paper clip hordes. The magnets they found are very strong so I don’t think any of them are going to have much trouble getting a nice big pile of paperclips to lord over. (However the magnets are so strong I don’t like to put them too close to my computer.)

[Sun Dragons have marbles for eyes that catch the light and make the eyes appear to be glowing. They are made with polymer clay and the scale designs are made with a technique called Millefiori.
I primarily work with river rocks, glass marbles and a polymer clay. I like working with polymer clay because it stays soft until cured in an oven. My favorite brand is Fimo, because it works really well for caning (aka millefiori). This technique allows me to create a block of clay that I can cut into slices with a repeating pattern. All of my creatures have been created using this technique.]
