Answer 2

Custard the dragon was called 'Percival' because he lacked the strong appearance and courage that a dragon should possess.

• Percival was an illiterate person who wanted to be the king's knight.
• He does,t have an attractive appearance or other eligibilities for the post.
• But still, he was dreaming big.
• Likewise in the story, ' The tale of custard the dragon', the custard is lacking a terrible, strong appearance like other dragons.
• He is a coward and is always requesting a safe cage.
• He doesn't possess the expected qualities of, a dragon.
• But still he claims to be one.
• So he was called Percival by others
