As a juvenile, Gloria earned the nickname Bleppin because of the way her tongue would blep while she was thinking deeply (or thinking of nothing at all). Even as an adult she’s still called the nickname by some dragons.

Gloria has the power of emotional aura. She can use this for comfort and healing or for simple wordless communication. When physically near someone, she can project emotions such as happiness, calm, love, excitement, or a sense of motivation. It can have a refreshing effect on the mind.

Every dragon gains magic while in the egg. Their nests are made from magic-infused sticks that are the equivalent of magic wands. They come from a tree that only grows on her home world. This is how she has the power of emotional aura mentioned in the previous fact.

Gloria loves hugs and cuddles. Sometimes she'll freely give kisses too. In dragon culture it's an expression of friendship. If you're kissed by a dragon, don't worry about saliva toxicity. The myths of deadly bacteria are false. They have very clean mouths.

Gloria's tidally locked homeworld didn't have a day and night cycle. The star was always just above the horizon, so when visiting Earth, Gloria was completely bewildered to see the sun move across the sky and then dissappear for many hours. It sometimes messes with her sense of direction.

Gloria has never had a mate or little ones of her own. However, she can lay unfertilized eggs. She'll gift them to you. They taste good boiled, fried, or scrambled. It has a slightly sweet flavor with a spicy aftertaste.

Gloria Flagrantia is her full name. Can this word exist on her home planet? I'm not going to overthink this. It's just a name I chose.

Gloria likes sunbathing on the beach. Despite that, her favorite Earth season is Autumn, just because of the changing colors. I believe I've posted 18 facts now if counting replies. Not sure if I have over 30 facts as of now, but I appreciate all the likes. I'll come back whenever I think of more.

19. When it gets very cold, Gloria's wings become feathered. On her home planet there are no seasons, but dragons will sometimes travel to the cold regions near the frozen half, which will trigger feather growth. On Earth, she'll sprout feathers during winter and shed them at the beginning of spring
