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.
Deception is well named. She lies as easily as she breathes, and threatens and stalks her way around to what she wants. She is much stronger willed then most, and can convince you that a Mint dragon is not a dragon at all but a lizard if she set her mind to it. She uses fear to her advantage, and does not allow any "weak" emotions to get into her head. Don't mess with Deception, because if you do you .... just...don't mess with her ok, it is rare that she will get into vigilante mode, but PLEASE don't trigger her mood, it takes HOURS to calm her down!
