Abilities:
Selene can float in the air endlessly without using up any energy whatsoever. This means that she is able to fly whenever and wherever she wants. The wings on the back of her head are not functional, but they are not needed anyway
She has the amazing ability to enlarge her body up to a height of 10 meters. The change in her size comes with a magical effect, as it allows her to influence the tides of nearby waters: when she is at her normal size, there is low tide, and as she grows larger, the water level rises higher until it reaches a flood at a height of 10 meters
She is also able to magically transport water from one place to another. This allows her to water plants or provide refreshment to other creatures. However, she cannot filter or conjure water from the air, a water source must be present for this
She has the incredible ability to influence other creature's dreams, but she only does so to vanish nightmares, to help others and/or to simply make them feel better. For her, this process requires hardly any magical energy, to keep bad dreams or even nightmares away from other creatures, she only needs to be in close proximity and they are immediately protected from them
With the help of her magical abilities, she can hypnotise other beings, provided they consent and wish for it from her. To hypnotise others, they simply need to gaze deeply into her eyes, and within a few seconds, they enter a sort of trance. During this state, Selene can look into the being's subconscious and assist them with various issues, such as processing traumatic experiences, overcoming fears, and much more. However, her hypnotherapy sessions are merely a support and not a magical cure in themselves. Ultimately, it is up to the affected being to overcome these challenges
She feels a strong connection with the moon and responds strongly to the lunar cycles: During the full moon, her magical energy charges up particularly quickly. Conversely, during the new moon, her energy takes significantly longer to regenerate
She produces and emits light form her whole body constantly. That way she can lighten up the night in many different colours. The way she glows is particularly strong and bright. Unlike other creatures, the glowing requires almost no energy and she has the ability to vary the intensity of her glowing from a dimmed one to a dazzling bright one. Even the highest degree consumes only a small amount of energy. This glowing cannot be turned off though
She has the ability of speech and she speaks and understands many different human languages of our world. Of course she is able to interact with her fellow species and other animals and creatures. She can even translate to a certain extent
She has a pretty good night vision and can see quite well in the dark. She cannot see through the dark in the Land of Eternal Darkness though. She can also see almost all existing colours
Weaknesses:
Her glowing cannot simply be "stopped". She can dim it to a certain extent, but not turn it off. This makes it difficult for her to hide for example
After enlarging her body, it takes her several minutes to up to an hour, depending on her energy level, to transform back into her normal size
As mentioned earlier, her body takes significantly longer to recharge her magical energy during the new moon
She is often quite dreamy or sleepy, which means she isn't always fully present. However, a splash of cool water helps her to regain her focus quickly. This little trick allows her to shake off her drowsiness and get back to her tasks with renewed energy and clarity

Further Information:
She has an entirely vegetarian diet, even though she is a dragon. She eats vegetables, fruits, nuts and much more
She was born in the Land of Eternal Night a gorgeous land which is full of colourful and glowing plants and creatures. As the name implies, the land is in a state of eternal night. It is a very soothing and peaceful land. Selene has lived in the Land of Eternal Dusk for a long time. She loves to admire the faintly faded moon in combination with the beautiful sky colours of the eternal sunset. Additionally, her closest and dearest friends Felipix, Charondo and Verdan live there, who are very important to her. The latter is even her cousin. However, she still regularly visits her good old homeland and from time to time, she also visits other lands to help the creatures there with her magical abilities
She and every here presented Land of Eternal Dusk resident are good friends. She gets along very well with her cousin Verdan, best friend Felipix and other good friend Charondo. All four of them often work together to help the flora thrive by combining their magical powers. One of Selene's main tasks is providing the plants with the best freshwater from nearby waters
