"
I know that reference" is one of my favourite Dragon Share topics, but I do get kind of tired of the same few dragons always getting picked. So, let's start a variant thread!
Here's how the game works:
- You might want to claim your post to prevent ninjas.
- Go to the last poster's lair and look for any dragons who you recognize as being a reference to something: a film, a videogame, a song, the concept of ennui, whatever.
- Copy/paste the dragon's BBCode into the thread and ping the owner, telling them you recognise that dragon.
- The person who posts after you will then look through your lair and ping you with a dragon they recognise.
The catch in THIS thread is that you're looking for the most obscure, lesser-known reference you can find! It's really something special when two fans in a smaller fandom make a connection, if only for a moment, so let's spread that love around!
In the end, it is okay if you don't recognize anything aside from the more famous references and have to pick that, but consider the following:
- Notice someone has a bunch of fandragons from a particular source material? Pick the one based on that one-off character!
- Notice someone has several fandoms represented? Try picking something from a source that general audiences are less likely to know! Someone who isn't into videogames would recognize Mario before they recognize Samus Aran, and someone who isn't into superheroes would recognize Superman before Squirrel Girl, for example.
Have fun finding those offbeat, lesser known fandragons!

Also, I know that Majora is a reference to LOZ: Majora's Mask, but is Sheikah a reference to LOZ: Ocarina Of Time?

And...yes? (I have a whole host of LoZ named dragons because of Majora. Figured Sheikah would be a good name because shadows and the lore and blah blah blah I'm not going to go into detail XD)

I assume he's named after the artist, because that accent is pretty perfect for such a reference, and a mighty weird coincidence if not!

I see you have a lot of Marvel themed fan dragons (I love all of them OMG). I feel like someone who isn't well acquainted with the Marvel universe would have a harder time recognizing Tigra.
