Paper Dragons are not truly living creatures. They are pieces of parchment enchanted by magic, and as such, are very vulnerable to fire. However, they behave almost like dragons. The only place where their behavior differs is breeding: paper dragons cannot breed.

For someone who loves books above all other things, it is sometimes hard to believe that there are people who prefer not to read in their spare time. Young dragons, especially, tend to think books are dull, or just not "cool". Echtur is out to change this misconception. Every week, this paper picks up a stack of newly published books, skims them, and spends a couple of days flying around advertising. In this way, Echtur has boosted the popularity of many current best sellers, including "Dino's Digest", "The Pumpkin Cookbook", and "The Arts of Pillow Shaving and Cheese Trimming".
