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.

Magi dragons are, as their name suggests, primarily magic users. They rarely use physical forms of attack. They eat anything they can kill, which is almost everything. They won’t kill unprovoked except when hunting, although they may kill humans if in danger. Their strong magic makes them one of the most feared breeds of dragons.

Harry -like his name- is quite ordinary or rather extraordinary in his ordinary-ness. The other dragons share names like Zanthara or Shmendrick, they are beautiful or ugly, while Harry is... just plain Harry. When he first came to Delirium she had a good chuckle about his name but she readily accepted him as a student since she never turns a willing magi student away.

Harry has since found a place among her students and even a mate in Baba Jaga but he spends more time with the non-magi dragons of the clan than any other of his fellow students. He thinks that magic is not something one can hide behind and one should always remember the real world.
