Now THAT ^ I like!! Definitely thematic, and very unique and fun. I could see that being a way better direction then just a straight up stat boost.
In fact you could put Eltris’ Att to 3 (which was concerning some at 4) and then give her a special attack or ability that is an Att of 4, conditional upon if you’re attacking a figure engaged with the Dragon hero. Then it’s as if she’s jumping off (hence the mini) and coming down on the opponent or being invigorated to defend the Dragon. I think Flameslaywr has found something here for you. I know personally I’d love taking a hero with this general design with my dragons to literally ride and then pop in the board and Attack. But not just a straight up stat booster. This way you’re getting turns with eltris and she can be more than just a sidelines hero giving help passively.

This is good, up to the "must attack a figure" clause. That has the "uncertain future" problem. If she, for example, dies to a leaving engagement attack before making her attack, then she fails to meet the condition for taking the extra turn. Just get rid of that clause and it's ok.

Sorry, I forgot anout the uncertainty thing. But yeah, go for this idea if you want Astro.

I might even go so far as
--to give her an automatic skull for the dismounting attack
--Let her dismount into any empty space within two (three?) clear sight spaces
--Name it Dismounting Leap or Leaping Strike or something
Basically like she leaps off and comes crashing down on someone.
I wish you high rolls, fair winds, and following seas.
