Appearance: Short Leap looks exactly like a Gentoo penguin with a round belly and sky-blue eyes. There are huge changes, though. First things first, they are extremely tall and large. While a normal adult dragon's height is around 210 cm/6' 10.7 ft, Short Leap is 240 cm/7' 10.5 ft, passing every adult around them very easily. The second thing is that they have small, dark violet horns and wings. The third thing is the sharp, needle - like teeth on their beak.
Personality: Competitive, nurturing, creative, gullible, cowardly, adaptable, well-mannered, competent and spineless. They are a huge animal lover and have social anxiety.
Fact: They are Bicurious.
It's has two stomachs, one for digestion and one for storing ice and darkness. The storage part is at the front of it's torso, which is the reason why it's belly looks so large. Short Leap's digestive stomach is behind the storage stomach, being protected. When it slides on its abdomen, it does that against the storage stomach.
She was an extremely short and clumsy dragonet, which was the reason why her name is Short Leap.
Her and Fossil Dragon are twins and hatched at the same time.
It likes making sandcastles, as well as small things made out of snow and ice.
It can hold its breath for half an hour.
It loves snow globes, crystals and Christmas decorations.
Alongside fish, they also like eating snakes, scorpions, centipedes and lizards.
Short Leap loves watching ballets, dancers and ice skaters. However, it's not athletic enough to join them, so it doesn't bother to learn any moves.
She has a sweet spot for ice cream, as well as other cold, iced sweets and drinks.
Because of its social anxiety, Short Leap has made lots of wolf, dog, fox, rabbit and deer friends at the Earth. It named all of these animals and often checks up on them.
The taste and smell of cooked fish makes them sick. They like their fish live and fresh out of water.
Sometimes, Short Leap goes from one place to another by sliding on their tummy like their animal counterpart.

Backstory: Centuries ago, a deity came to Earth in the disguise of an old man. This deity was “Deus” and he had 21 different Elemental powers, but as time passed by, his worshippers forgot about him. Lesser worshippers meant lesser energy went for his his powers and lifespan, to the point of making him reach the edge of death. Knowing that his time was limited, Deus channelled the last bits of his energy and life to create magical, powerful serpents that’ll carry his legacy. These serpents would later name themselves “Dragons” and start building places to inhabit, giving it the name “Dragon City”. A tall, large hatchery would be made right where Deus had died, with farms surrounding it; symboling that even death is nothing but a new beginning to all residents of Dragon City. With how much dragon and Element existed in Dragon City, it was bound to raise suspicions and curiosities of other humans, resulting in almost daily attempts of trespassing and attacking. The dragons who had the strongest and best Element management skills gathered around and make a decision: That Dragon City would leave the Earth.
All 21 of the Elements gathered around and raised the used lands off the ground. With enough Elemental power, spells and magic; almost every single building, object and habitat the dragons made would be turned into giant, flying islands; with the island that carried the dragon hatchery and Deus’ grave officially being The Main Island. Not only that, but also every flying part of Dragon City would be “sealed” with a powerful invisibility barrier; so their human neighbours wouldn't see nor even feel them while they can trespass it whenever they wanted.
Born to Happy, Dark Dragon, and Ice Dragon, Short Leap has always been a scaredy flake. They disliked interacting with dragons outside of the family, claiming it scared them. It was no lie, as they felt ashamed of how short and chubby they were. They didn't felt like they looked dragon enough for the City, which lead them to feel like other dragons were judging and hating on their body. To avoid interacting with any other dragon, Short Leap turned to animals. Truly, interacting with animals made them feel better. As such, they began taking care of some animals at Earth. Their good deed got recognised quickly in the Dragon City and they got hailed as the City's "First Non - Nature Animal Caretaker", much to everyone's happiness and pride. Now having a herd of deer, a pack of wolves, a group of street dogs, one arctic fox and two rabbits as their pets; Short Leap often goes to Earth often make sure they are doing alright while also trying to make peace with their past, appearance and how they truly look. After all, if these animals can love them unconditionally, so they can too.
