Welcome to Dragon Cave! Dragon Cave is an online adoptables game. Collect eggs, raise them to adulthood, and then breed them to create interesting lineages. New dragons are added regularly!
Pyralspite dragons are small, swift dragons that can breathe an intensely hot flame. They get their name from their resemblance to and affinity for garnets of the pyralspite family—they hoard such gems, preferring garnets that match their variant, and can tell the type of garnet from how it tastes. The dark red variant is known as Pyrope. They tend to be fiercely loyal and noble, and have a stronger sense of justice than other Pyralspites. They live primarily in volcanic areas.
Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons 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. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.
Ambition absolutely loves all forms of life on Valkemare. From the smallest insect to the largest dragon, he happily interacts with it all.
He has a personal quest in life, to document and catalogue all the forms of life that he can. He's aligned herself with a community of scholars with the same goal, and he's forever bringing them back samples to study. The universities are becoming used to seeing Ambition winging his way into the animal holding area with something strange from a far off land held in his claws.
Ambition has adopted the naming system that the scholars use, which gives creatures names in the old southern Galsreim language of Latatian. There is a very specific way of writing these names, and he gently corrects any amateur "zoologist" who gets it wrong. Having a looming Pyralspite instruct them to write a name out correctly a few hundred times tends to make any budding scientist remember it for the rest of their life.
