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.

Gray dragons are the masters of the skies. They are excellent fliers and land only to rest and eat. In addition, they have full control of the weather. They are very hot-tempered and easily angered. They will attack any human that bothers them, conjuring strong winds and dangerous lightning.

Cloud Munroe comes from a long proud line of weather witches. Worshiped as a kind of goddess by some African tribes, they usually develop some kind of superiority complex. Cloud on the other hand is rather shy and sweet on the inside but never lets anybody know that, pretending to be like her ancestors.

If she had it her way she would only ever fly, but alas she has to eat and sleep and interact with the other dragons of her clan.
