“I don't talk to myself because I'm crazy
I do it because I'm AWESOME.”

– Iris Drake

 Iris Drake is, in many ways, a force of nature. A lot of it is just the attitude that comes with knowing that not only are they amazing but that everyone should recognize just how awesome they are -- in other words, being a dragon. The fact that they've got the talent and sheer personality to back up their self-confidence more often than not certainly doesn't hurt... or doesn't help, depending on perspective. It has led to them becoming a well known presence in the modern world, though more in certain circles than in others.

 As an internet celebrity of notable renown and an advocate for social change, they're well known in the sorts of circles that do things like watch YouTube videos or care about issues like social equality... on either side of the argument. They're the kind of person who works to change the lives of oppressed and disadvantaged people wherever they find a cause to fight for, and who makes a lot of enemies out of the people who oppose the things Iris fights for.

 Being a dragon, they laugh at the death threats and not-so-secretly hopes someone will try. Until they do, they'll just go on being their awesome self.
