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. Hatchlings spend a relatively long period of time as hatchlings, from 100 to 200 years, before they mature. Adolescence is usually marked by a hatchling's wings growing in, but not all breeds of dragons grow wings. Baby dragons all look very similar, but once they hit adolescence, they change very fast, they mature 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.

White dragons are pacifists, and specialize in extremely strong healing magic. The only limit of this magic is that it can't bring back the dead. They only eat plants, and never kill living things.

Florencina is a male dragon, lest you be confused by his feminine-sounding name. He was originally to be called "Florencine," but a slip of the quill during a brain-spasm resulted in the unfortunate '-a' ending. He is a healing dragon, and is named in honor of Florence Nightingale, the renowned nurse of old. Perhaps he should have received a more masculine name, but if he had it may have resulted in less effort on his part to show his healing muscles. You know how it is with males and overcompensating for their shortcomings.
