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.

Black dragons are warriors. They are strong and capable in battles of force, but also ample magic users, capable of devastating opponents with their spells. Their bright eyes give them excellent night vision, which is why they generally hunt during the night.

Sakura is a young black dragon who cares little about her looks and even less about the other gender. Careless and wild, some even believe she would rather have been born a male. It is because of this reason that everybody was convinced that Sakura would never find a mate, as nobody likes a female who tries to be stronger and better then her male partner. Even so, she seemed to have caught the eye of Samosa, a Green Dragon that lived for the hunt and never showed interest in any woman before. A stranger couple could not be imagined, but they seemed to have developed an unexplainable affection for each other, and given the aggressive nature of both dragons, nobody dares to question their motives.
