His Name Really is Dragon

When discussing Dragon Dronet and all that he will be bringing to the event, Amber continued:

Dragon has worked on so many things, like "Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness" to Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. He's actually the basis of a video game character from Star Wars the Old Republic, he is Darth Malgus. He has been to MisCon before, but he is coming back again this year and we are pretty excited to have him.
