Articulated dragon-puppet encounters
Invite a blinking shoulder dragon and its keeper
The Magic Crafter / Mermaid Phantom
The Magic Crafter offers Bramble, a dragon-tamer character carrying Thistle, a silicone shoulder puppet that moves its head and mouth, blinks and roars. The owned page invites birthday and special-event bookings, including dragon storytimes. The same operator also offers Mermaid Phantom encounters; these characters are consolidated as one business.
Current location note / listed area: Traverse City, Michigan · character entertainment
This is a performer-operated puppet, not a live animal. Confirm character availability, guest ages, venue and wedding suitability; the dragon format requires breaks between working hours. The page retains an invalid summary block and placeholder text below its specific offer. Mermaid formats are separate, and aquatic appearances are not lifeguard services.
