Dragon

Dragons are a race of ancient, powerful, large, giant, winged, fire-breathing, reptilian supernatural creatures, as feared by others as they were admired in the supernatural world. They are long lived, powerful, and intelligent. Able to fly and breathe fire through their nostrils, they are one of the most dangerous creatures in the universe.

History
In ancient times, planet Earth hosted a dragon population which coexisted peacefully with humanity. This changed with the start of the Scouring, a war waged by humans to take Earth as wholly their own and to purge dragons from it entirely. Despite their immense power, the dragons were hindered by their lower population and far slower birth rate compared to humans.

Eventually, every remaining dragon was banished to a dimension parallel to Earth, known today as the Dragon Realm. It is believed that if dragons were to ever return to Earth, it would spell the end for mankind and the world as we know it.

Visibility
Most would think if Dragons truly did exist, they would be pretty hard to miss. Like most fabulous beasts, Dragons can only be seen by humans who accept the existence of magic and the supernatural. During the time of the Scouring, most humans did, but in the present day, most humans don't.

Appearance
Dragons can range from very small to very large in size. Dragons are typically covered entirely in scales, possess yellow eyes, razor sharp teeth, two wings, and a tail.

While fire dragons' scales tend to be a light green, ice dragons tend to be either a light blue colour or white, and Wyverns have dark green scales.

Reproduction
Dragons lay eggs, however it takes a considerable amount of time for these eggs to hatch, anywhere between three to five years depending on the type of dragon.

Age and Life Cycle
Dragons can live up to be 1000 years old, however most only live to be 700.

Types of Dragons

 * Fire dragons: The most frequently seen type of dragon. Fire dragons are red in hue, typically bulky and grounded, and have the ability to wield powerful flame breath.
 * Ice dragons: Typically found dwelling in frigid regions, the ice dragons are thinner, distinctly serpentine in shape, and can exhale blasts of ice to attack. Unlike the typical dragon, ice dragons do not breathe fire.
 * Wyverns: An entirely airborne dragon species whose agility is unrivalled among the dragonkin.
