Dragons

Dragons are magical intelligent creatures, descending from the start of time formed by fire and ice of the primordial chaos of the original world. 
==Characteristics==
It is said that dragons are fire made flesh. Great heat emanates from dragons' bodies, to the point that they steam during cold nights. Dragons only eat cooked meat, and use the extremely hot dragonflame which they breathe to cook their meat before eating it.
A dragon's scales are largely, but not entirely, impervious to flame as well, and serve as protection for the more vulnerable flesh and musculature beneath. As a dragon ages, its scales thicken and grow harder, affording even more protection, leaving dragons nearly immune to fire, although they can still be wounded by dragonflame. Similarly, as dragons age, the fires they breath become hotter and fiercer. Where a hatchling's flame can set straw aflame, the flames of older dragons, in the fullness of their power, could melt steel and stone. The lifespan of dragons is many times that of a human, though their maximum natural lifespan is difficult to determine: as beasts of war, most of the known examples died in battle. It is however assumed that they live for at least 300 years under good health and feeding. Dragons are not invulnerable; a stinger bolt developed by the Mullyn Vakerian forces can easily pierce through a dragons body as long as it hits straight on.
Dragons are believed to be intrinsically tied to magic in the world. Whenever a dragon dies it is said to bring a little more coldness to the world and some believe that if the dragons were ever to be fully wiped out then maybe one day it will plunge the world into pure fire or pure ice.
Dragonbone is as strong as steel, but lighter and far more flexible, and impervious to fire. It has been used to make brooches, bows, hilts of Ossen steel daggers, and whip handles.
==Known Dragons and Their Riders==
Dragon 	Riders 	Notes 	Egg
Aegorax 	King 
Vaenarr
Vakerian 	Born from one of the remaining known eggs of Iraxes, Aegorax was hatched within Prince Jacerys' cradle a few months after his birth. The court of Vakar would quickly learn that the dragon possessed a bronze coloration and a calm temperament, as let you caress it's scales. The dragon grew to immense size and is currently known as the kings dragon being ridden by many. Vaenarr often uses the dragons flames in battle and many fear him riding atop it.	Bronze with flecks of red.
Silanax 	Queen
Vaehna Vakerian I 	Hatched in the cradle of Vaehna, Silanax was tamed by her. As Silanax grew their scales are of a beautiful shade of purple, and the membrane of his wings are black. 	Purple with black lining.
Siren 	Queen Visaenys Vakerian I	After decades, hatched within the crib of Visaenys Vakerian IV. A beautiful she-dragon, by all accounts, Siren was born into the world with pale, icy scales that have since grown into a bright sky blue. Her eyes shine a clear silver, the webbing of her wings a lustrous platinum. Perhaps the most unique aspect of Siren is the color of her flame even if rarely used - a spiral of silver encasing a beam of orange. 	Platnium veined with blue.
Zaikax 	
King Maegaron Vakerian II	A dragon egg that laid dorment for decades was placed within the cradle of Prince Maegaron Vakerian II, and oddly the egg hatched and ever since it was young has been aggresive. As it grew it was clear it was red, huge, and lean. In battle he was formidable, fearsome, and experienced. Not only was he aggressive and great in battles he is also extremely fast. 	Deep Red going to light red.
Vhaegon 	Princess Gaera Vakerian I	Hatched in Gaera's fifth year hatched a beast of pure black with piercing red eyes. As he grew his horns and spinal plates turned blood red, and his eyes are smoldering red pits. His teeth are black as well. His flame is black fire shot with red and the wash of its heat can be felt thirty feet away. His wing flap sounds like the clap of thunder. He bleeds black blood. 	Pure black with red specks.
