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.

Feisty and energetic, whiptail dragons pride themselves on their speed and agility. It is not unusual to see several whiptails racing each other. Though fragile, they can easily evade attacks with their superior speed, and often use their long tails as a weapon, giving rise to their name.

Elcono is very fast, very arrogant, very scornful and very very sneaky. He can prank Celjonia and Xma in 30 seconds flat and he has a wicked sense of humour. But he only has hatchling friends because the adults just don't understand his wit. He also hates Jip because Jip is the funny, popular joker. Not him, Elcono. Jip. It also why Jip can't keep a girlfriend and is mortally afraid of anything that goes faster than 30mph.
