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.

Pink dragons are primarily herbivores and only eat meat during the mating season, when mates will exchange kills. When it is not breeding season, pink dragons spend most of their time incubating eggs and caring for their clan's young. Due to their feminine color, it was traditionally thought that pink dragons were a strictly female breed, but this is not true.

Though they bear very little resemblance to each other, Euxine is a close relative of the balloon dragon, Seis, descended from the same Dorkface line. However, this feisty pink dragon is not obsessed with her family tree and couldn't care less about it. She is close to the other female pink dragon, Fayren, sharing many of the same interests, probably because they are of the same breed, though they differ a little in appearance. Her one passion is solving puzzles. Actually, anything that requires Euxine to stimulate her brain excites her. Consequently, she's also frequently seen accompanying Ravius, the scholarly winter dragon, spending many hours debating intellectual subjects with him.
