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.

Sparkling Sunset loves sunset, of course. It's her favorite time of the day. But she isn't named after her favorite time of day or the color of her marvelous scales. As an egg, she was laid at sunset. She hatched at sunset, grew her wings at sunset, and grew up at sunset. Though she's not the brightest crayon in the box, she surely is the prettiest! With sky blue eyes and lovely, soft pink scales that glisten like mad in the sun, not to mention a wonderful personality, it is impossible to hate such a wonderful dragon!
