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.

Daydream dragons are the hosts of daydreams and fantasies. They spend the majority of their time sitting on clouds, dropping daydreams down into the minds of people passing by. Humans who live near daydream dragons must be especially careful not to let their thoughts wander, or they could end up spending hours or even days in a trance-like waking dream state.

Dreaming Wanders loves to mess with people's thoughts. They could be thinking of one thing, then she lures them into a world of her own. This world is dark and unexpected for such a glorious beast. Her favorite past time is making people re-live their worst days, and watching them try and figure out how to change the reality of things.

Wandering Dreams has never learned to fly, not needing to since her pet cloud is always there for her. With every whim that passes her head, the cloud is there to follow her through it. Her cloud is a dark blue, almost gray as it stores the dark memories of the people, for when nobody passes by for weeks on end.
