Dragon

Dragons are one of the most common races of non-humanoids on Gaen. They 
can be found throughout Enniare and are thought to have originated 
there, as well as on Nordica
 and Ethros. They are in general somewhat sentient, though some kinds 
display behavior more like a non-sentient animals. Most dragons could be
 slain by a sword being drove up the roof of their mouths, but that's 
almost impossible.
== Origin ==
While several dragons that don't have fire-based breath weapons 
exist, it is evident that the draconic evolutionary tree stems from 
fire-based dragons.
== Appearance ==
All dragons are scaled and lizard-like in appearance. Most have a 
head, at least one set of wings, two legs, two arms, and a tail. Some 
stand on four legs, some have no arms, and some have multiple tails. 
Some dragons, such as Hydras, have no wings.
Dragons can come in many colors, ranging from pitch-black to 
vibrant red to icy blue. In general a Dragon's color is meant for 
camouflage, though those heavily associated with fire aren't.
== Reproduction ==
The majority of dragons have genders, reproducing similarly to that 
of the real life platypus, with babies that hatch from eggs. However, 
some dragons, mostly that of the Hydra Family produce asexually, laying 
eggs that just multiply cells into another Dragon.
== Dragon Pearls ==
All dragons have dragons pearls from birth, and a dragon cannot make a
 second one. Dragons will sometimes give someone their pearl, and this 
is a special occasion the recipient must not take lightly. When a dragon
 does this, part of the dragon's consciousness is left in the pearl, and
 the dragon and the pearl are link telepathically. Dragons usually only 
give their pearls to people they trust, usually in their dying moments 
or when they think they might be dying. Even after a dragon dies, it's 
memories and personality live on in the pearl, which can communicate 
telepathically with the recipient of the pearl. It should be noted that 
this can only happen if the dragon gives the pearl willingly and of 
their own accord. Taking, tricking, or coercing a dragon into giving the
 pearl will render it as useful as a shiny rock, with all possible 
magical properties lost. Many dragons, such as those in Telierda and 
Arindear, give their pearls to their riders for increased effectivity 
when flying.
== True Dragons ==
True Dragons are defined by having at least 1 set of wings, at least 1
 tail, two hind legs, two arms or two front legs, a single head, and an 
elemental breath weapon of some kind (usually fire) this family includes
