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.

Silver dragons are arguably one of the most beautiful types of dragons. They live in high altitude habitats such as mountains. Silver females, like most female dragons, eat meat only when a male dragon brings it to them. They possess an almost magical aura that lights up any place they are in, and are looked upon with awe by humans and animals alike.

Poe is a very kind, lovable dragon with an almost childlike nature. She is quite sweet and always willing to lend a helping hand. She is also extremely energetic, ranging from adorable to downright obnoxious. She tends to be a bit mischievous, occasionally playing harmless jokes on other dragons. She often gets reprimanded, though never harshly; it is very difficult to truly dislike Poe. Poe is, of course, exceedingly beautiful even by silver dragons. This often earns her the fancy of the males, though she nearly always rejects them. It is very, very rare to see Poe ever fight against another dragon, and if she does she refuses to engage in physical combat and instead uses magic.
