Well, drag is an anarcho-communist, is engaged to marry drag’s pet dragon, likes all forms of science fiction and fantasy, is a wizard, and prefers power metal over most other genres of music. Anything more specific you’d like to know?
No, it seems like you identify in a non-binary way and they/them would be an appropriate way to address you.
This isn’t saying you should or shouldn’t be addressed in a specific way, I’m saying it’s not clear what your gender identity is. You’ve stated an occupation, not a gender. I don’t want to get into how I disagree that gender can be an occupation, but you haven’t said anything about how an occupation can be a gender.
They/them, which is a gender neutral pronoun, would be an appropriate way to refer to drag, if there weren’t any pronouns that refer specifically to dragon riders. But since there are, they/them is about as appropriate for drag as it is for an average man or woman. Drag thinks you’ve misunderstood the they/them pronoun. It doesn’t refer specifically to nonbinary people, it refers to any group or person lacking specified gender. Drag is not lacking specified gender, drag’s gender is very specified.

That doesn’t explain anything about you, which I asked.
