Ribbon dragons are named after their long, waving growths on their head. They often use these as a show of territory to other ribbon dragons, and the one that is the most graceful with them and does not tire will be the winner. They are around the size of a pony, but they are highly territorial. It is a rare sight to see one sitting down, as they constantly need food to replenish their stores, and they need to defend their land. They are considered a pest in the south eastern regions though, due to the fact that they will often go and steal food from others.
