Wood Dragon personality
Wood gives the Dragon's expansive imagination a developmental focus, placing value on ideas that become stronger through other people's contributions. Confidence is used to open a possibility rather than claim every part of it. The challenge is overextension: welcoming each new direction can make a shared vision so broad that its first practical step becomes difficult to identify.
