Official Dragon Description
Adult:

''Dorsal dragons are so named because they have large fins along their backs that can be raised and lowered at will. They use these fins to regulate body temperature; They raise them to cool off when they become overheated. The bright colors on the fins double as a means of attracting mates.''

Matured hatchling:

''Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It has brightly colored fins on its back. And look! It's grown its wings! It must be close to maturing.''
