Even when things get messy, Dragon plays it cool. If you take life one step a time, there's nothing to be afraid of. Nothing at all.
Cat – Dragon's cat. Unlike Dragon's other friends, Cat is really just a typical cat. Dropping in from time to time, Cat will hapilly accompany Dragon for a while. But she'll only stick around as long as she's interested. And then, she's off in search of her own adventures. Satisfied and self-absorbed, Cat is highly fussy about her meals! She's not too concerned about the world around her and she loves to stretch out for long naps.
Beaver – A busy and curious beaver. Beaver likes to keep busy. Most of the time, he's doing chores and rebuilding his home while he mutters and grumbles to himself. For Beaver, life is no picnic. Beaver is always looking for a better and faster way of getting things done. Unfortunately, Beaver's shoddy workmanship usually has him working overtime. Curious and cantankerous, Beaver is constantly pondering how and why things are done the way they are.
Mail Mouse – A mouse who is reliable and is bold. Mail Mouse loves her job and she's shown to be good at it. Sometimes, she hand delivers the mail, and at other times, she just leaves it at the mailbox. Either way, she's quick, reliable and a lot of fun. Opinionated and always willing to lend a helping hand, Mail Mouse is generous with her advice. She's bold without being pushy and that's just the way the others like her.
Ostrich – A bird who runs a general store. Ostrich is a strange and wonderful bird. Ostrich is always busy with something. She has a head for business and manages her own general store. She can also be seen tidying the streets and clocking time as the village's physician. Ostrich tries very hard to be a superhero, and she is determined to rescue people, whether or not they need to be rescued. She has even developed her very own superhero yodel and dance.
Alligator – A kooky and creative alligator. Alligator never worries about finding a solution. His only solution is never to worry. For Alligator, life is a journey and he's enjoying the ride! Kooky, creative and loved by all, Alligator even has his own lingo: "Hidy-ho, little blue dude!" which he says to Dragon. And there's one thing that Alligator loves more than ANYTHING else. He just cannot stop dancing, playing the bongos, and making lots of noise.
