Dragons are creatures with nearly unlimited life spans. They can survive for long periods of time, and no one has found a dragon that has died of old age. Adolescence is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. Once they hit adolescence, hatchlings change quickly, maturing to their full forms in only 2 years.

Dragons don’t communicate with each other verbally, but they will growl to scare off predators and frighten prey. Young dragons will emit an extremely high-pitched squeal when they are frightened. To communicate, they use telepathy with each other and to speak to other creatures.

Dark green dragons, once they mature, appear to become an entirely different species. However, this isn’t true. Rather, they burrow underground and get nutrients from their vines. These vines are sometimes referred to as Dragon Grass. These dragons are very violent, and will use their vines to capture, kill, and eat anything that moves, as well as nearby plants. Luckily, their range is limited and they cannot use magic. Dark green dragons tend to be easy to spot since they usually kill all plants around them and thus are usually surrounded by a large clearing.

Emerald Ivy Rose used to love burying things in the ground. Then, by mistake, she buried herself. Since then, the only thing that she buries is herself. She loves the feel of the moist dirt in her claws. Her favorite spot to bury herself is by roses because she loves their smell. When she isn't in the ground..... wait! That's never. Nobody has ever seen her above ground since she was a hatchling! And her egg was even found half buried under the ground... kind of strange. When she was a hatchling, she always hated grass. Dirt has always been her favorite place to be!
