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.
Dark green dragons, once they mature, appear to become an entirely different species. However, this isn't true. Rather, they burrow underground and get nutrients from their vines. These vines are sometimes referred to as Dragon Grass. These dragons are very violent, and will use their vines to capture, kill, and eat anything that moves, as well as nearby plants. Luckily, their range is limited and they cannot use magic. Dark green dragons tend to be easy to spot since they usually kill all plants around them and thus are usually surrounded by a large clearing.
Blessed Ace, nicknamed Ace, is the most unique dragon in kiten234's clan.
As a hatchling, Ace wondered why he looked different than the other Vine Dragon hatchlings. His coloring was slightly different than that of the others. As the vines around him grew, it became more apparent to him that he was definitely not the same. The flowers that bloomed on his vines were orange while the rest had red blooms. Once he matured into an adult dragon, he realized that he would never fit in with the other Vine Dragons of the clan. Ace went to the field and set up his home far away from the others. He wanted nothing to do with the others and they wanted nothing to do with him. His keeper provided for him, which is the only reason he stays near the cave instead of leaving forever.
