棲地：沙漠、高山　　元素：光


外觀／身體結構：
-雌龍比雄龍多出一隻不具任何用途的手指。
Females have one more wing finger than males. This does not appear to have any specific function.
-存在黑底白圖紋的星雲龍，這屬於白化病的一種。當然，這極為罕見。
It is entirely possible for a black and white patterned Nebula to exist, as a form of albinism via colour-blindness. This, however, is extremely rare.
-尚未發現具完全相同花紋的兩隻星雲龍，但有幾隻花紋相似的星雲龍。
Have yet to see two Nebula dragons with the exact same pattern, but several have similar patterns.
-星雲龍的角常被誤認為耳朵。
A Nebula dragon’s horns are often mistaken for ears.
-當星雲龍死亡或被殺死，其花紋會在幾個小時內消失。
When a nebula dragon dies or if it is killed, its scales lose their pattern in a matter of hours.


幼龍習性：
-剛孵化時牠們可睡上最多十八小時。隨年齡增長會漸漸變得活躍。
They can spend up to 18 hours a day sleeping when newly hatched. They slowly become more active as they age.
-剛孵化時牠們他們的眼睛是淡藍色的，後來會為了配合其花紋而改變。
Their eyes are pale blue when they hatch, but seem to change color to match their wing patterns.
-雙新月出現時幼龍會比平常激動，因為這是牠們觀察天空的大好時機。
Hatchlings tend to be more restless during a double new moon, as this is the ideal time for them to observe the sky.
-即使是年輕的龍，亦很容易分辦性別，因為雌龍比雄龍多出一隻手指。
It is very easy to tell their genders apart at a young age, since female Nebula hatchlings have an extra wing finger.
-幼龍在日全食時會顯得不知所措，因為他們還不知道這是怎麼一回事，他們相信這是晚上。
Hatchlings will behave unpredictably during a full solar eclipse, as they do not yet understand what is going on and believe it is night time.
-雌性幼龍會在青春期後期尋找高地或沙漠做窩，留待牠們長大成人並產下第一個蛋。
In their late adolescence years, female hatchlings will seek out high areas or deserts to make a nest for when they become adults and lay their first eggs.
-雄性幼龍會在青春期後期花大量時間盯著天空，確保牠們的花紋足以找到伴侶。
Male nebula hatchlings during their late adolescence years prepare for adulthood by spending long hours staring at the sky, making sure their patterns are suitable for finding a mate.


成年龍習性：
-成年龍白天睡覺，因此牠們不喜歡夏天，因為白天變長了。牠們冬季通常較活躍。
Adults sleep during the day. They therefore dislike summer as days are longer, and are usually more active in winter.
-雄龍的求偶方式是對著雌龍大幅度伸展牠們的翅膀。若雌龍同意成為其伴侶，她會模仿此行為。若雌龍不同意，她會飛走。
Males who wish to mate display their wings to their fullest extent to their chosen female. If the female approves, she will imitate him. If she disapproves, she will fly off.
-雖然他們喜歡獨居和寧靜的生活，但偶然也能發現小團體。
While they prefer to live solitary, peaceful lives, small groups can be found every now and then.
-星雲龍不介意暫時與其他品種同行。基於雙方對星光的愛，牠們大多被發現與皇家藍龍有緊密交流。
Nebula dragons do not mind temporary company of other breeds, and many have been found to bond closely with Royal Blue dragons, due to their shared love of starlight.


居住環境：
-星雲龍熱愛旅遊及尋找新地方觀察夜空。為了觀察夜空，牠們偶然還會飛到星球的另一端。
Nebula dragons love to travel and find new places to observe the night skies. They will sometimes travel as far as the other side of the planet to do so.
-由於冬天是觀察天空的最佳時機，星雲龍逐漸適應寒冷的天氣。
Since winter is often the best time to observe the skies, Nebula dragons seem to grow accustomed to cold weather.


飲食習慣：
-星雲龍是雜食性的，偶會獵殺大型哺乳動物。
Nebulas are omnivorous, and usually hunt large mammals.
-喜歡苦味水果，如檸檬和葡萄柚。
Enjoy bitter fruits such as lemons and grapefruit.
