Here he is ^-^ the resize made it hard to tell, but it's raining ash.

A bit about Lava Dragons:

The eggs are lain in active volcanoes because they need very high temperatures to help them hatch. Once hatched, the baby dragons climb out of the lava and go on their first hunt. Male lava dragons will find a piece of volcano territory once able to fly, and females will usually have more of a nomadic lifestyle, flying from place to place, as a result, their wings are stronger and they can battle better in the air. They also have more of a lithe structure than the heavy males. From all the time they spend in volcanoes, lava dragons tend to go rather chameleon and take on colors similar to the volcano and its contents, far different from their first pale yellow color. Active volcano residents will be a dark brown with lava stripes, and non active ones will usually be a lighter color with ash colored markings. Lava dragons have sensitive pads on their feet that tell them what's going on by the way the ground feels. Due to their locations, the males often have to go for weeks without food, so that when they do find food they eat as much as they can, common prey is firebird eggs, which are large and full of nutrients. Several more interesting facts is that the only thing that does not mimic the environment is eye color, this is always the same shade of purple among all lava dragons. Also, their horns are made of a material that melts when young, so that when the dragons hatch, their horns melt, giving each dragon a distinct pattern for each horn, much like a zebra's stripes.

I guess that was more than a bit, but I couldn't help it.

They're good at camouflage, it helps them catch prey.
