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.

Bright pink dragons are one of the few all-female breeds of dragons. Their bright colors make them easy to spot during dragon mating season. They are primarily herbivores, but eat meat during mating season when it is brought to them by a mate. Mating seasons occur once every 200 years and can last up to 2 years.

Ayeka is largely a proper pink, very proud and not inclined to physical labor.  She likes to laze about and let the males bring her gifts and seek her favor.  She does, however, possess a mischievous streak.  She once discovered Violetia's secret cache of purple hoardings, and dropped a bundle of pink flowers in the middle of it.  For weeks afterward, Violetia did not leave her cache for fear someone was going to raid it.  The other dragons are fond of Ayeka, but the females especially keep one eye on her considering her reputation for pranks.  It is rumored that the magi hatchling Dattebayo learned a good portion of his tricks from her.
