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.

White dragons are pacifists and specialize in extremely strong healing magic. The only limit of this magic is that it can’t bring back the dead. They only eat plants and never kill living things.

Elettrai is the first-born of the pack leaders. Because of this position, she and her mate, Endear, have the important job of training mature hatchlings. They teach skills like healing and flying. When the rest of the pack brings home her kills she prefers to leave the cave to forage plants for herself. Elettrai and Endear are very devoted to each other. Elettrai also shares a deep bond with her parents, especially her father who is also a white dragon. She also dotes upon her younger siblings.
