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.

Ice dragons are fierce predators who hunt using their extremely cold breath. The breath of an ice dragon can freeze its prey solid in seconds. The body of an ice dragon is so cold that icicles will form along its skin no matter the outside temperature.

It's Just Frozen Water was named after the way other young dragons used to tease him as a hatchling. Before he matured, he was rather weak. Older dragons would ignore him as he repeated his futile attempts for attention. His fellow hatchlings at the time would laugh and remind him that all he had to prove his worth was frozen water. While his physical power has increased since then, he's still emotionally vulnerable. Often, he chooses to spend his days in solitude, approaching other creatures only if he plans to eat them.
