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.
Green dragons are also sometimes called "earth" dragons. They usually live deep within caves, and have power over the earth. They are capable of launching boulders at high speeds, and can cause earthquakes by slamming down onto the ground.
Rhampage is a very formidable dragon. Though he is a common breed, he still has a lot of pride for his species and holds all other green dragons with high regard. He has found happiness with his beautiful mate Aurumel and is the proud father of many children. His youngest daughter Virumel stayed at home with her parents before finding her perfect mate in a young white dragon named Pythias. He hopes his daughter will be as happy in her adult life as he has been with Aurumel.
