Iris Drake/Introduction

 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 is she amazing but that everyone should recognize just how awesome she is -- in other words, being a dragon. The fact that she's got the talent and sheer personality to back up her self-confidence more often than not certainly doesn't hurt... or doesn't help, depending on perspective. It has led to her 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, she's 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. She's the kind of person who works to change the lives of oppressed and disadvantaged people wherever she finds a cause to fight for, and who makes a lot of enemies of the people who think that the things she fights for are opposed to everything they stand for.

 Being a dragon, she laughs at the death threats and not-so-secretly hopes they'll try. Until they do, she'll just go on being her awesome self.
