Dragonfly

The dragonfly is a hovering, insect-like creature.

History
After Aang freed them from their cages, several dragonflies hovered above Ba Sing Se civilians and harassed them. They were also seen perched on rooftops, balancing on their lower limbs.

Anatomy
Bearing some resemblance to Chinese dragons, the dragonflies have elongated, lizard-like bodies. They can fly or hover vertically via the two pairs of dragonfly-like wings attached to their shoulders that can grow up to one meter in length. Their upper parts are dusky green, and their nape areas are decorated with three spines with dark green tips. Their faces are dark green, with a lighter green band extending from under each eye, meeting and flaring over the nostrils. Their eyes are yellow and they have no external ears. The scutes on their underparts are creamy mint green.

Connection
The dragonfly is a combination of the real life dragonfly and a generic lizard.

Behavior
Dragonflies eat bugs and fish, so although they can be a nuisance, they pose no threat to humans.
