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.

White dragons are pacifists and specialize in extremely strong healing magic. The only limit of this magic is that it can’t bring back the dead. They only eat plants and never kill living things.

Thayla's First Snowflake, Snowflake for short, it very selfless and generous. She is rather thin and scvrawny because she refuses to eat until every dragon in the cave and her owner have eaten, which is around 200 dragons! When she was an egg, her soon -to-be (at the time) owner, Catty, found her in the snow where her parents had lost her. For a long time, Snowflake refused to even go near her parents' cave. Now, however, she has made peace with them and often visits her loving, caring parents.
