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.

Bright pink dragons are one of the few all-female breeds of dragons. Their bright colors make them easy to spot during dragon mating season. They are primarily herbivores, but eat meat during mating season when it is brought to them by a mate. Mating seasons occur once every 200 years and can last up to 2 years.

When Paladia was first brought to Vasacius by the Priest-Mages the fury of the two dragons nearly collapsed the catacombs and succeeded in killing three priests.

Her egg had been taken some time after the citys founding when its wealth and power were flourishing. The Priests had come to believe that it would be much easier to breed dragons than to engage in the potentially hazardous task of snatching them from the wild.  Paladia proved them wrong. Throughout all the mating seasons that occurred throughout her captivity she continued to fight ferociously. The Priests did not once succeed in breeding her, making hers the most successful resistance any dragon ever offered to their captors.

She now keeps her eyrie at the summit of the tallest standing tour in the city from which she can gaze for miles over human-empty lands. She is proud and can seem haughty, being very selective when it comes to choosing mates from among her many suitors. The meat most likely to win her favour is human.
