*We're not exactly sure where the **blue fire dragon** comes from. We didn't think it was possible. We're also not sure if their fire is cold or hot since no one has been brave enough to test it.*
    — Nogard’s description of the **Blue Fire Dragon** in The Book of Dragons.
The **Blue Fire Dragon** is a rare opposite hybrid with the elements Fire and Cold. It's main element is Fire.

## Appearance

The **blue fire dragons** is very similar to the far more common fire dragon, except that it is bright turquoise blue in color. Its crests, wing membranes and belly are a slightly paler frosty blue.

## Abilities

### Weapons

**Blue Fire dragons** have large, sharp fangs and claws which they use to inflict serious wounds. The spikes on their wings can also be used as weapons in close quarters, and they can lash out with the spikes on their tails.

### Defenses

**Blue Fire dragons** are resistant to fire and cold. The spines along their necks protect them from neck bites.

### Other Abilities

**Blue Fire dragons** can tolerate both extreme heat and extreme cold. They can sometimes be seen sliding on their bellies across the ice on more northern islands and coasts, or even swimming. They are a good choice for a riding dragon because though they are not fast fliers they have excellent endurance and can carry a lot of weight. They are also highly resistant to magic, especially Pyromancy and Cryomancy, due to being an opposite hybid.

### Breath Weapon

Predictably, the **blue fire dragon** breathes blue fire, but it hasn't been studied enough to determine whether it is cold fire or hot fire because it annihilates everything that could be used to measure it.

### Weaknesses

**Blue Fire Dragons** have a thin skin and must either live in an extremely cold or extremely hot place, otherwise they will die of "not enough heat or cold".

## Habitat

### Regions

**Blue Fire dragons** live around the Garita volcano, along the West Shore, and in the Far North.
