This is a sub-fandom of the overarching “furry” fandom, whose interests lay in creatures with scales, or whose characters have the qualities of creatures with scales, such as a snake, lizard, dragon, etc. Scalys are quite popular and have made themselves a name in the furry community. They also are, it seems, one of the more diverse sub-fandoms, with characters ranging from the ordinary, typical creature to the more outrageous, out-of-the-world, and odd-ball creatures.

A few strong examples of the scaly sub-fandom are:

• Max_Dragon: A user on multiple websites, such as Deviantart and Fur Affinity. He is a proud realistic artist and scaly, as dragons are depicted in most of his drawings, especially his dragon-fursona (named “Max”).

• kabier: A user on multiple websites, such as Patreon and Fur Affinity. She is a skilled cartoon-style artist and holds several raptor-fursonas, one of them named Genesis. She holds a top spot in popularity, and has a mass of followers, especially on Fur Affinity.

• Sulfer: A user that operates mainly on the website Fur Affinity, and a self-proclaimed art whore. Sulfer is a fursuiter around the Ohio area, and is a dragon-fursona depicted in a library of digital art found on his user page. He tends to romp around AnthroCon when it comes around.

These examples are few compared to the number of scalys world-wide.
Person A: Hey, why is so-and-so so obsessed with dragons and sh*t? He talks about them all the time!

Person B: He's a scaly, dude!

———

Person A: You heard about that group of fursuiters… they looked like lizards!… that raised money for charity?

Person B: The scalys? Yeah, I heard. That's pretty neat, actually!
