Dragons

## Info

Dragons are large lizard-like creatures, they have four legs and a pair of wings. Their body is protected by hard scales that are difficult to penetrate. The weak spot of a dragon is its belly, the scales aren’t as thick here compared to their back.
Dragons have a long tail that also will be covered in the same scales as the
rest of their bodies. At the end of the tail, some dragons will have pikes or a
thick end to swing with and protect themselves with. The best weapon in a
dragon’s arsenal will always be its capability to breathe something, this can
be a fire (most common, but can also be region specified). A common dragon body
will be as large a farmers house, its tale can also reach the same length.

## Rarity

The Dragons color gives away how rare a certain dragon is within the world. The color coding for rarity is also applicable for Drakes and Wyverns as they fall within the same "Family" as Dragons.

* **Green**

the
most common among all dragons. These are the weakest out of all the ‘normal’

dragons (not counting special ones).

* **Red**

Rarer is the Red dragon, these dragons are a bit taller and most of them
have a horn on their head. Their breath blast is also deadlier and stronger
compared to that of a Green dragon.

* **Black**

significantly

bigger, and has harder ‘black’ scales compared to the other dragon types

## Subspecies

* **Glass Dragon**

A
little, not over 1m long, cute dragons with a blue-glass like scales. These
dragons are non-hostile to other life, they live by only drinking water, this
is what gives them the blue glass-like color. The scales are solid water not to
be confused with ice. These dragons live in the woods but are also petted by
Humans and other races. Their weapon arsenal is limited to water-manipulation
(= creating from liquid, solid water). These dragons are among the smartest
creatures in the world and learn languages just by listening to a lot, but they

are not able to talk themselves except with the help of magic

* **Dark Dragon**

It is a dragon that has died and been resurrected
by ancient magic, that only talented mages are capable of casting. This spell
has the effect that the skin of the dragon will turn slightly black and his
eyes will turn to a bright shining purple. These dragons are often confused
with black dragons due to their black color, but these ones are most of the
time smaller as resurrecting a black dragon is very difficult to even for the best
mages, and black dragons are very rare. These dragons can appear with visual
bones, or totally consisting out of bones (these dark dragons will not be able
to breathe fire anymore). This depends on how long the dragon has been dead and

how its body has disintegrated.

* **Forest Dragon**

This species of dragon is the smallest among
all dragons, they reach a maximum length of 40cm. They only appear as green
dragons, there is no mutation of red/black forest dragons. These creatures are
no threat to humans but will attack them when they feel threatened by them,
they are especially protective toward their children. As protection they will
breathe fire, their breath does not have a large range, but will burn of skin
when it's able to hit it. These dragons are often used in mines as these dragons
have will alert the miner for incoming harm, they possess very good ears. This
is also the reason why they aren’t seen often. When they hear that people are
near, they will hide or run/fly away.
