liquid element alien to them; it is also their enemy. Water can extinguish them like a flame, or it can asphyxiate them, for they never stop breathing in air through their thousands of pearly scales". That's in the novel, so it's pretty conclusive to say that immersion in water will indeed kill them if it happens for more than very short periods of time. Thus, it's not original research to say that, and I have removed the flag accordingly.

I removed the "Original
Research" and "citation needed" indicators, which I note has happened before and been the subject of edit wars, so I'm clarifying here. On page 217 (using the Ebook version) of the novel, it is stated "Luckdragons, as we know, are creatures of air and fire. Not only is the

Maybe it's even a good idea to split this page up into characters from the novel and characters from the movie adaptations, since there are some in each that are not in the other, and some are portrayed differently. (Or we could just remark upon the differences, as seems to be the present solution.)

Diamonds, Monocle Face - Joker

The name was quite certainly "Mondenkind" in the German book, which naturally translates into
English as "Moon Child", "moonchild" or something along these lines. It is not left vague, for sure.--

Fantasia vs. Fantastica - wasn't it "Fantastica" in the book? It may have been "Fantasia" in the film, and the comment reflecting the change suggests the person has only seen the film.
