This has always bothered me... It makes me like them a little less, in fact. It's like, come on man, you're one of the rarest and most sought after Neopets. Have a little confidence! Maybe they're just shy though... Who knows.
I think they're a little shy looking. But they mainly looked shy the original way they looked. But yeah, who knows.
I find Draiks always look a little mad. Mine wears that space outfit for them so you only see their eyes which looks REALLY nice.
