Dragons

This is a reptilian demi-human species known for their tough and rough ways. They are huge and possess far superior strength than that of a humans, with razor sharp claws. They are often thought of as huge ravenous beast but in actuality they are far more calm and humane.

## Physical Attributes

* **Scales:** Scales can be veering in color, size, weight, space, and durability, but are always in the same general area, on their necks, cheeks, thighs, sides of the stomach, and down the spine, covering all of their toes, fingers and hands but stopping mid forearm and leg.
	+ These scales have a tendency to catch clothing and must be cleaned at least thrice a year less they get rough to the touch. They heat a knife and scrape it in the direction of the scales. This scrapes off any dirt that's built up that other things may not be able to get.
		- All of the scales are able to deflect bullets as they are harder than steel. Although some special bullets might be able to penetrate.
* **Cold blooded**: Due to being reptiles, Dragons are cold blooded.
	+ However to speed up their metabolism to have the body temperature of warm-blooded mammals even though they are cold-blooded.
		- It's unlikely for a dragon to hibernate, but if put in an extremely cold place it is possible, although once again unlikely.
* **Height**: Dragon’s are around 4.8 meters or 16ft on average, or 15'7 for females.
* **Tail**: Their whole tail is also prehensile, able to grab things such as tree branches.
	+ The tail is a sort of sensitive part for dragons and the tip is considered as an erogenous zone to touch.
		- The average length of a dragons tail is three feet shorter than their height and sometimes a bit longer.
* **Equilibrium**: They also have a better sense of equilibrium than a peak-conditioned human, and are capable of making sharp turns without losing control of their movement.
* **Claws**: 3 foot claws but 5 fingers that can easily cut human skin
* **Snout**: A dragon's head features a blunt snout. Some snouts can be shaped more like shark snouts, if they are of the wave class, rounded snouts or more beak-like snouts if they are female. Lots of dragons also have a strong brow, and reptilian frills on the cheeks and ears, but this present in all dragons.
* **Pupils**: All dragons have eyes with vertical beaded pupils. The multiple 'beads' work together to help dragons have better perceived distance as well as allow hunting in various environments.
* **Strength**: All dragons have supernatural strength that far surpasses that of a human on earth. Able to lift their 1.6 US ton bodies with their tail.
* **Hearing**: Dragons have an uncanny sense of hearing and they can hear long distances.
* **Smell**: Their great sense of smell is often noted as that superior to a blood hound, it's rumored that they can smell people from one hundred feet away, although it is currently unknown if this is true. Dragons have the same way of smelling as normal lizards, by sticking out their tongue to catch scent particles in the air and then pulling it back on the roof of its mouth, where there are special sensory cells.
	+ Some dragons sense of smell can be strong enough to enable them to navigate successfully even if their eyesight is impaired.
		- This super sense can be used against them though using very strong smells to mess with them. (one of the reasons why coffee and nicotine is banned in Dragon society.)

## Growth

Being mostly reptilian, they do lay eggs, have no nipples, and are cold blooded, they also can’t reproduce with humans. Their children hatch from eggs and don’t need to be breastfed, in fact a child would reject it if you gave them it. Eggs are around 4'8-3'11ft on average, weighing around 180 lbs and 2-3 eggs are the average number to be born at a time. Every egg has its own individual pattern using the colors that will be used in their hair and eyes. Once hatched the child should be able to walk after a few minutes and reach about 4'7-5'7 feet. Dragon children also develop much faster than human children, and by the age of 13-14 they should have a fully matured brain, although they are only considered adults at the age of 16.

When two different major class dragons have a child the child will be one of the minor classes. If the parents are of the same class, be it major or minor, the child, 90% of the time, will be in the same class as the parents. If two different minor class dragons have a baby and one major class gene overlaps their baby will be that major class. If no gene overlaps then it will be a minor class as the different major class genes will mix. It is possible for a minor class couple to have both minor and major children.

## Major class

### Flare

Flare dragons have horns and an eastern dragon-like tail that is 2 feet longer than their bodies. The main roar of Flare classes is a flame roar, and everything from their head to their toes is very flame resistant. Although it may sting as a child, all flare classes are immune to lava.

Lasair Dragons follow the flare class stereotypes, of having light colored scales and medium bulk, being loud, aggressive, and very athletic, along with the biological features of all flare dragons. Despite being called aggressive many acknowledge that Flare classes are very chill and often get along with everyone they meet. However as many still treat Flare classes as the aggressors in situations where they were clearly not, a big problem that is being brought much more to light in the modern day and age.

### Wave

Wave dragons have webbed feet and hands and axolotl tails for better swimming. They can hold their breaths for 2 days and are amazing fast swimmers. The main roar of wave classes is water roar. They also usually have more shark-like snouts and at times fins to help them with swimming.

Leaga Dragons follow the wave class stereotypes, regal, small bulk, fancy attire, and very smart, dark colored scales, along with the biological features of all wave dragons. As these traits suggest many wave classes are the peak of intelligence, and for a lot of things these assumptions aren't wrong, many call the Wave class education the best in the Basilisk Archipelago and lots of high members of society that work in more intelligent or managing parts are of the wave class. However this doesn't mean that Wave classes are all snobbish, rich, and physically weak, in fact many wave classes excel in physical such as sports.

### Rock

Rock dragons have more horns than other dragons and when they do have tails they are much shorter tails. Also they have less scales than other dragons as their regular skin is already as tough as normal scales. Because of this rock dragons are considered the toughest of the major classes. The main roar of rock classes is a gravel roar.

Choma dragons follow the rock class stereotypes, mean, very muscular, tough, and muscle brain, along with the biological features of all rock dragons. Rock dragons are thought to mostly be gangsters or just plain good fighters which is why most dragons will be cautious when messing with a Rock dragon. However because of stereotypes many think these dragons are dumb, which isn't actually the case at all. Because of this dumb stereotype many find it insulting if it's insulated that they have to be on the same level as the "stupid Choma dragons".

### Sky

Sky dragon legs are usually a bit skinnier than other dragons. The main roar of sky classes is wind roar. They also have a small amount of light scales so they can fly better. They have giant bat-like wings that fit their size on their backs along with only having one horn wrapped around a certain ear and are the only class that have the possibility of having no tail.

Vogel dragons follow the sky class stereotypes, smug, fast, athletic, medium intelligence, light build, and competitive, along with the biological features of all sky dragons. It's common for others to think Sky dragons are all about sports and challenges as that is how sky dragons presented themselves in the past but less so in this day in age.

## Minor classes

Minor classes are born as a result of two different major class dragons elope. Each of the major classes have 3 minor classes directly under them.

**Sound class**

Sound class is a minor class of dragons when a flare and a wave class have a child but the flare genes are stronger. Sound dragons are one of the few minor classes that don't have an individual roar. They can use vapor roar or the flare and wave class roars, although wave would be weak compared to a normal wave class, but nothing that represents sound. However they are called sound dragons for a reason. That reason is their ability of echolocation. Sound dragons have much better hearing then other dragons which allows them to use the ability of echolocation when they're are at locations where their sight is limited, they emit a sonic blast that has a special signal. This signal bounces off of all objects and obstacles nearby and allows the dragon to avoid them, even in mid-fight. Unlike bats, this signal, or at least part of it, is still low enough to be within the human hearing range; some humans can hear the dragon using the signal.

Sound dragons are often called the most chill of the Flare classes, as for the most part they relax and play music. However Sound classes do carry the loud stereotype, often yelling and using an outside voice everywhere. In fact it's a common myth that you can't go anywhere in Derduol without hearing music of some kind.

**Electric class**

Electric class is a minor class of dragons when flare and rock class dragons have a child but the flare gene is dominant. Electric dragons do have their own unique minor class roar being the lightning roar. As a mix of flare and rock electric classes are also able to use the ash minor class roar. Other than this an electric class would have the physical traits of both flare and rock class dragons. Other than this roar, as a mix of flare and rock, class would be able to use both flame and gravel roars, although gravel would be weak compared to a normal rock class.

As a mix of the Rock and Flare class many believe this class to be the best physically but also quite stupid. Electric classes do live up to their Rock class lineage as they are known for their high competitive nature.

**Metal cla****ss**

Metal class is a minor class of dragons when flare and sky class dragons have a child but the flare gene is dominant. Metal classes have their own roar in the form of the metal roar. Other than this roar, as a mix of Flare and sky, a metal class would be able to use both flame and wind roars, although wind would be weak compared to a normal sky class.

Metal classes act very similar to sound classes, being mostly chill, however this is usually only when you get to know them, as when first meeting a metal class most are aggressive. This is due to the more wary nature of a metal class. They are also perceived as more rude and mean, but this is due to their increased bluntness.

**Ice class**

Ice class is a minor class of dragons when wave and sky class dragons have a child but the wave gene is dominant. Ice class dragons have their own roar which is named the ice roar. Being a mix of sky and wave class, an Ice class would be able to use both of these major class roars. If you combine a water and wind roar no matter which gene is dominant you should be able to use the bubble roar. Other than this roar, as a mix of wave and sky, an ice class would be able to use both water and wind roars, although wind would be weak compared to a normal sky class.

Ice classes are thought to be the best definition of Leaga dragons. They use their beautiful ice breathe to decorate and make their homes seem like crystals. Ice dragons are often especially clean and fancy, which causes others to view them as snobby and selfish. However despite the assumptions many ice dragons are polite and taught that snobbishness is a disgrace and sign of stupidity.

**Poison class**

Poison class is a minor class of dragons when wave and flare class dragons have a child but the wave gene is dominant. Poison classes have their very own roar, combining their flare class and wave class roars to make poison. A poison class, as a mixture of both flare and wave can use the vapor roar as well. Other than this roar, as a mix of wave and flare, a metal class would be able to use both flame and water roars, although flame would be weak compared to a normal flare class.

Many actually don't hold poison dragons to most of Leaga stereotypes, this is because poison dragons are known to be slobs and lazy which clearly contrast the Leaga dragon assumptions. They are often thought to be snake-like, because it's common for them to be intelligent when it comes to emotions which if bended negatively can mean they are good at manipulation.

**Bug class**

Bug class is a minor class of dragons when wave and rock class dragons have a child but the wave gene is dominant. Bug dragons are one of the few minor classes that don't have an individual roar. Bug classes can use the mud roar or the water and gravel roars, although water would be weak compared to a normal wave class. However Bug classes have a special ability, having characteristics of all kinds of bugs. Some bug classes have wings, despite not being related to any sky dragons, stingers on their tails, antennae on their heads, and supernatural abilities based on the type of bug they are. Some are able to spit acid, have super strength, grow multiple limbs, or affect people with their stingers.

Bug classes are known for being the smartest of the wave minor classes. They are known for being snobbish and not really liking other classes, especially those not in wave or related classes (wave minor classes). it is said that they will refuse to even talk to you if they think your class is too low, However not all bug dragons are this cold or snobbish and many are nice and friendly, although almost all of them like spending time alone.

**Fight Class**

Fight class is a minor class of dragons when rock and wave class dragons have a child but the rock gene is dominant. Fighting dragons are one of the few minor classes that don't have an individual roar. Fighting classes can use the mud roar or the water and gravel roars, although water would be weak compared to a normal wave class. However a fighting class doesn't actually rely on their roars and only focuses on their physical abilities. They are in general much bigger and stronger than regular dragons. On average hovering around 5.4 meters or 17'5ft and being very physically built. This is do to biology and their very physically focused way of life on their island.

This class is number one when it comes to living up to the Choma stereotypes, being physical, competitive and less than ideal when it comes to intelligence. Most fighting class are aggressive which does give them the bad name of rage filled muscle brains, although this doesn't apply to all, obviously.

**Crystal class**

Crystal class is a minor class of dragons when rock and flare class dragons have a child but the rock gene is dominant. The Crystal class has its own roar, combining rock and flare to make the crystal, or at times called the glass, roar. As a mix of flare and rock electric classes are also able to use the ash minor class roar. Other than this roar, as a mix of rock and flare, a crystal class would be able to use both gravel and flame roars, although flame would be weak compared to a normal flare class.

Despite many lumping this class with Ice there is a big difference in how they act. Many crystal dragons are thrill seekers who are, more often or not, muddy and dirty from their exploits. However this class has big differences in how the rich acts from the poor. More poor people are the risk seekers who don't mind getting dirty and aren't big on luxury things while the richer class are basically the same a a standard ice class.

**Plant class**

Plant class is a minor class of dragons when rock and sky class dragons have a child but the rock gene is dominant. The Plant class has its own roar, combining rock and sky to make the pollen roar. Other than this roar, as a mix of rock and sky, a plant class would be able to use both gravel and wind roars, although wind would be weak compared to a normal sky class.

Plant classes are usually with the stereotypical farmer, dirty, with a wheat, a toothpick, or a timothy, in their mouth, and built from the farm. However many do picture plant dragons as poor which isn't the case, it's just the case that they don't value luxury goods and find showing off wealth arrogant, stupid and or only good for farming which is often thought because how simplified everything is in their dialect of Zertai.

**Dark class**

Dark class is a minor class of dragons when sky and wave class dragons have a child but the sky gene is dominant. The Dark class has its own roar, combining sky and wave to make the shadow roar. Other than this roar, as a mix of sky and wave, a dark class would be able to use both wind and water roars, although water would be weak compared to a normal wave class.

Dark classes are usually smug and love showing off their more luxury items, however in complete contrast with a Vogel dragon they are usually never athletic and prefer to go into more intelligence focused fields.

**Light class**

Light class is a minor class of dragons when sky and flare class dragons have a child but the sky gene is dominant. The Light class has its own roar, combining sky and flare to make the light roar. Other than this roar, as a mix of sky and flare, a light class would be able to use both wind and flame roars, although flame would be weak compared to a normal flare class.

Now light dragons are typically incredibly fast and athletic. They thankfully don't usually carry the smug aspect of a Vogel but competitiveness is definitely most present in light dragons.

**Stone class**

Stone class is a minor class of dragons when sky and rock class dragons have a child but the sky gene is dominant. Stone dragons are one of the few minor classes that don't have an individual roar. Stone classes can use the bubble roar or the wind and gravel roars, although gravel would be weak compared to a normal rock class. Although Stone dragons do have a unique ability. All stone dragons all have gray stony colored skin and would resemble stone if they didn't have any clothing on. Stone dragons are also capable of remaining motionless for days at a time, barely seeming to breathe which helps sneak up on prey. Many get jump scared when they move after believing them to be statues.

stone dragons follow almost nothing in the Vogel stereotypes. They are the slowest of the sky class minors, not very athletic, pretty humble, and are almost always built heavily. The only thing that match up is their competitiveness as Stone dragons are known to never turn down a challenge even if they know they will lose.

## Roar

Dragons have a power system called a roar. All Dragons can perform a Dragon's Roar, incorporating elements into a massive breath attack. Most roars possess highly destructive power, having caused great damage to the area it affected, destroying the ground and dealing significant damage to or fully obliterating large structures, like mountains, from over 400ft away. Although it’s very difficult to utilize, there is a small psychic connection between a dragon and their roar in which case they can move their roar.

### Flame roar

The user of the flame roar first inhales, gathering fire in their mouth, and then releases such fire in the direction of their opponent, creating a large, current which heavily burns the opponent. When the round is fired, sparks and flames can shoot out to about 300 ft. Due to being made up of magnesium, it looks like a torrent of concentrated sparkles. They can also sustain a low flame in their mouths to give off light and illuminate dark places. These flames burns at 3100 °C.

### Water roar

The user of this roar quickly gathers and releases a large burst of water from their mouth. They can store water in their tail although it gets hard to hang by their tail after a while and it gets heavy. The water isn't hot but the current is so strong it will blast your skin clean off. Described as even more powerful than 20 full force firefighter hoses.

### Gravel roar

The user of this roar can quickly gather and release a large quantity of earthen materials from their mouth in the form of a large blast. This is a sand, wind, pebble, leaf, and dirt, mix. Many compare this to the pollen roar but that roar is much more suited to plants as this one is suited to the earth as a whole.

### Wind roar

The user of this roar can quickly gather and release a large quantity of air from their mouth in the form of a large blast. It's said that the physic connection is much easier with the wind roar but this is just a theory. It's also said that this roar gets much bigger than the other major class roars seeing as you can gather much more wind or air.

### Lightning roar

This allows the user to quickly gather and release lightning from their mouth in the form of a concentrated, destructive blast. A large blast of lighting also ends up paralyzing any still living enemies.

### Metal roar

This allows the user to inhale a fairly large amount of wind and then proceeds to release a very powerful blast from their mouth, which possesses incredible blunt force, at the opponent. In the process, sharp metal shards are dispersed, which are capable of shredding the opponent's body.

### Ice roar

With this roar the user quickly gathers and releases supercooled water from their mouths that solidify on contact, much like freezing rain, This mostly takes the form of a large destructive stream.

### Bubble roar

The user of the bubble roar can quickly gather and release a large quantity of bubbles, with lots of wind, from their mouth in the form of a straight blast. Unlike all other blast this isn't that aggressive and is unlikely to cause harm.

### Mud roar

Users of this roar quickly gather and release a large burst of mud from their mouth. Combining the water and gravel roar this mud roar also has lots of other things such as pebbles and leafs.

### Vapor roar

Users of this roar quickly gather and release a large burst of water from their mouth, however combined with flame breathe they heat this water greatly creating steam, and extremely hot water. Many claim it will melt the flesh right off your bones.

### Poison roar

The user of the poison roar can quickly gather and release poison from their mouth in the form of a deadly, poisonous blast. The ability of this poison can change based on what kind of poison is consumed, however the base kind is a chemical weapon that interferes with the transmission of nerve impulses and particularly impairs respiration, or more simply put nerve gas in liquid form. This poison can also be acid.

### Crystal roar

The user shoots super heated sand that hardens into a solid glass on impact because of the flame shot out with it. The color of said heated sand changes depending on who is shooting but it's mostly an opaque blue. Obviously this blast is one of the hotter ones and should be avoided by non-heat resistant people.

### Ash roar

The user of the ash can quickly gather and release a large quantity of ash from their mouth in the form of a huge blast.

### Pollen roar

The user of this roar can quickly gather and release a large quantity of a plant mix from their mouth in the form of a large blast. This is a blast of a mix of leaves, pollen, sap, thorns, wind, and seeds, along with some gas that makes plants grow much faster.

### Shadow roar

The user of this roar can quickly gather and release a large quantity of shadows from their mouth in the form of a huge blast.

### Light roar

The user of this roar can quickly gather and release a large quantity of light from their mouth in the form of a huge blast. The ability of taking and reshaping light like this also allows light dragons to partially go invisible if they have good enough control.

## Culture

Dragons have their own language, Zeiteri, a rough and tough language that makes some sounds that are hard for humans to produce. Their fashion is a very wide range of clothing however it is most common to wear things that are loose fitting. In dragon culture physical touch is not very welcomed. Unless you are close like family, spouse, and close friends, it is seen as weird to physically touch for hugs, handshakes, kisses, etc. Dragons have a diet of mostly meat, large hoofed mammals such as deer, elk, bison, and moose. They also hunt smaller mammals such as beavers, rodents, and hares along with snakes and birds.

All dragons are very fit as their main way of travel is walking and running. Dragons have two ways of sleeping, hanging upside down usually in trees using their tails, like bats, or they resemble dogs as they walk in a circle before lying down on a slab of metal. Because of their tail’s size it supports their body weight but makes most unable to sleep on their backs. Dragons are usually amazing natural farmers and most can grow just about any crop. The naming system: middle names are casual, last names are formal, first names are family only.
