Ochredrakes are a curious species with a wide array of mutations and interesting behaviors. Not as intelligent as normal dragons, they only breed with other drake species. While they may not be bright, ochredrakes are flamboyant and fun-loving with amazing, chirping voices to sing with, and tame readily in the presence of a gentle hand.

Though it may appear at first that dragons and drakes have much in common, the two are completely separate species. Drakes are smaller and less intelligent than their cousin species, though both dragons and drakes sit comfortably near the top of the food chain. They are always found bearing antlers and leathery wings. Drakes share many of the same habitats that dragons do, and typically hunt in packs.

Sandraca lives in the desert near the great pyramids of Giza, hiding under the sand near the Nile in a hollow area. It often sees many Nebula dragons flying around the pyramids in search of mates but tends to stay away from them. He loves to fly around and eating fish from the Nile. Many people have searched for his underground sand cave because it was formed above a large vein of gold, but so far only two people have made it out alive, one was driven insane by nightmares, the other one is the person who raised it from an egg.
