A Toothless Dragon

Today, I would like to walk you through the concept of dragons, their basics and behavior. Being one of my favorite & most fascinating creatures, I will try my best to bring out the most important points about them which can give you a great insight into their species and way of living.

· What is a Dragon?

A dragon is a creature that can fly, hypnotize, and breath the elements. It has two wings [sometimes four or six if two wings aren’t strong enough] and gills behind the horns.

· What is Dragon fire?

The most powerful part of a dragon is dragon fire, which
could be anything from sound waves to lava. Dragons use their fire for hunting, fighting, and sometimes molting. Now, you may be wondering how do dragons produce fire. You may think it could be the lungs or stomach, but actually they have something in the throat which is called a fire-hole. Dragons have multiple fire-holes in their throat. If something gets caught in them and a dragon is trying to breath fire they tend to explode. Other than that dragon fire is very dangerous so DO NOT get in the way.

· What is Dragon skin?

Dragon skin is actually a very interesting topic indeed. It is completely fireproof and nearly impenetrable. Not even bullets can pass through them. They literally play in fire. The only way to kill them with a weapon is to squash them. Dragon skin also has other defenses like, for example poison spikes, using which they can shoot or zap scales. Some dragons even have camouflage skin and there are some, who are actually invisible.

· What can a Dragon do with its wings?

Wings are technically used for flying, but have other uses as well like
they can shield you from almost all materials. Dragons throw their
wings up so as to shield them from deadly materials like poisons or explosions.
In some cases dragons can flap powerful waves through their wings or other powerful attacks.
Now you know what to do with dragons & what not to do. Stay safe and healthy!
