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.

Skywing dragons spend most of their lives flying in the air. They hunt from the air, diving at prey from above, and land only to rest. They are some of the fastest fliers, capable of extremely high speeds. The webbing at the end of the tail acts as a rudder, allowing them to easily change direction during flight.

The name comes from this dragon's nocturnal nature. She is almost never seen unless the moon is in the sky. The soft glow of the moon reflecting on the world, helping to hide the troubles that are really there. That is the world she likes to live in.

Moonlight Glider is often fond of high mountain lakes where she dips her hind wings into the pristine waters then flies up over the trees. The shiver of her body sprays the water out behind her and when the moonlight catches the droplets just right the sky behind her glistens with a trail of stars that die out as fast as the day destroys the magic of the night.
