Here is how to play dragons.
Dragons connected with riders:
Dragons form an intense telepathic bond with their Rider, which develops over time. Mother dragons would bestow a few eggs to the Dragon Riders each year. The riders in turn would perform a spell over the eggs, using words in the Ancient Language to ensure that the infant dragons inside would only hatch when the eggs were touched by the human or elf whom they wanted to bond with. The egg will wait indefinitely until the dragon inside feels the presence of its Rider.Originally only dragons and elves participated in the bond, creating a mutually beneficial relationship. As a result, the elves possess supernatural strength, grace, and long life, while the dragons gain the use of speech-thought, instead of using pictures or emotions in mental contact. Humans were the third race to enter the bond. Later on , the other races where added too.The bond between a dragon and their rider was so strong that when one of them died, the other often went mad, and usually committed suicide. The reason for this is because half of their very identity and their soul has been destroyed with the loss of their partner.
Dragons with out riders:
They live in territory in different biomes. Female dragons live in the territory, males 'own' the territory then get the female who lives there.Dragons who are foolish enough, can fight the other dragon for their territory. Usually the defender wins. Females lay their eggs, usually in a cave, and they lay two eggs. When the mother is sitting on her eggs, the male hunts for food. Dragons with out territory are shunned in to the loner's territory, where they constantly fight, and females can't lay eggs without them being killed.
