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.

Hikari Kazeko, meaning Light Sand Child, is a bit like his father in being very shy and in the way he hunts. He never kills more than needed and will often wish his prey well in the afterlife. He will also often say something along the lines of "green star" to the prey as they die, though it is a mystery as to what he means by it or why he says it. Hikari will also help his mother out from time to time with the overcrowded areas.
