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.

Shallow Water dragons are found in tropical regions where the water is warm. They use their magic to hunt, using bubbles to capture small fish and animals. Their large, webbed feet make them excellent swimmers and they are able to move at very high speeds. Due to their bright color, these dragons are easily spotted in the lagoons where they live.

Fishskin was named after his slippery skin, that's a lot like fish skin. When her egg was laid her parents thought he was a magi. But when she hatched her parents were surprised. But being different didn't affect Fishskin at all, she did develop a high curiosity though. From messing with things as a hatchling to reading books she loves to learn. She also loves learning about farming from her mate, Noscale thuwed. But she also loves to swim in the water with her father and other water loving dragons.
