Dragons
These magnificent, flying reptiles may seem fearsome, but don't let those tons of airborne furies spouting ten meter long fountains of flame give you the wrong idea. Behind that scaly armor of every dragon beat the massive heart of a, well, a dragon. Just because you can't incinerate a village with a cough, or crush your foe with razor sharp talons, doesn't mean you should take your insecurities out on these gentle giants of the skies. So make friends with a dragon and go on a walkabout the galaxy together. Your dragon pal may come in handy on Pandora, Pern, or wherever your travels take you. Dragons, drivers wanted. (Volkswagen)
