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.

Stone dragons have a tough outer covering made of a stone-like material. They eat rocks, using the minerals they contain for nourishment and to keep up their stone outer shell. They rarely move, and are the heaviest of all types of dragons. Although they have wings, indicating flight ability, no one has ever seen a stone dragon flying.

Once a fair green dragon this beauty was, when, after helping her mate, the wicked Vae'khraan, wreak havoc upon a human village, was turned to stone right in the darkness of her own cave. Now, lo and behold, Aelure, the dragoness with a heart so wicked that, though she may have been turned to stone, her hatred for humans possessed her now statue-like body and gave her new life. Molten magma runs through veins where warm blood once pumped. Her eyes, once a fair shade of azure, are now a glowing crimson. Though she may have been revived, Aelure cannot speak, fly, or do much of anything but sit and wait for some unfortunate creature to wander into her cave so she can devour it. However, something deep within her yearns for another. Yearns for the dragon who once was so tender and kind to her. Yearns for her mate, Vae'khraan.
