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.

Black dragons are warriors. They are strong and capable in battles of force, but also ample magic users, capable of devastating opponents with their spells. Their bright eyes give them excellent night vision, which is why they generally hunt during the night.

Blood is the only female warrior in Luna Bell's herd but, she is stronger than the four strongest male warriors. She trained under the greatest fighter the herd had ever seen, Knight of Justice who has since left the herd and changed his name. Blood spends most of her time training to be more like her master. She has very little time to spend with her mate DyingFlame or their children. She tends to stay away from most of the rest of the herd. She's a very shy dragon who's not very good at communicating with others. The one thing she wants to do is to meet her old master again and show him how much she has improved.
