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.

No one knows exactly who Anonymous' is. Some dragons say it's a demon, others say it's a god. Only those in the DoomStick cave knows that Anonymous' is neither. She is a special Black, or known as an Alt. She resides deep in the caverns of the cave, where the crystals grow to be longer than houses are tall, and just as thick.

Anonymous' keeps to herself mostly, and few dragons dare go that deep into the earth where she resides, though there are rumors that someone named Neutual does so.
