	[[File:HhW6PLsBIPqXmJrEuX1v--4--waody.jpg\|thumb\|A red Dragon.]]		[[File:HhW6PLsBIPqXmJrEuX1v--4--waody.jpg\|thumb\|A red Dragon.]]In Kanturas, dragons stand as paragons of might and mystery. These immortal creatures are not only central to the realm's mythology but also to its cultural diversity. Dragons in Kanturas vary in color—red, green, and brown—and much like the other races of this world, their moral compass is not predefined by their nature but shaped by their experiences and upbringing. This nuanced existence makes them unique, as they embody the dual potential for both benevolence and malevolence.
	~~Dragons are~~ immortal creatures. Dragons ~~come~~ in ~~red~~, green and ~~brown. Like~~ the other races of ~~Kanturas~~, ~~dragons aren't inherently evil. There are good~~ and ~~bad dragons, it all depends on their~~ upbringing. ~~Adult dragons can transform into a humanoid form~~.

	== Lifecycle ==		== The Lifecycle of a Dragon ==
			The life of a dragon in Kanturas is marked by three distinct phases, each characterized by physical growth and cognitive development:

	~~====~~ Youngling ~~====~~		# '''Youngling Phase:''' When dragons hatch from their eggs, they enter the youngling phase. Initially, these dragons are very small, but they quickly grow to the size of a large car. During this stage, dragons are playful and curious, learning about their environment and the basics of their existence from their elders.
	When dragons ~~are born~~ they ~~are in~~ the youngling ~~fase~~. ~~They~~ are very small ~~when they are born~~, but ~~can~~ grow up to the size of a large car in the ~~youngling fase~~.		# '''Adult Phase:''' A dragon is considered an adult around the age of 100 years. By this time, they have grown to the size of a bus, with wings folded. Adult dragons gain the ability to transform into a humanoid form, which allows them to interact with other races in Kanturas more directly. This ability is crucial for their role in the larger communities of the realm, as it facilitates communication, trade, and diplomacy.
			# '''Elder Phase:''' Upon reaching 600 years, dragons enter the elder phase, where they grow to the size of a house with wings folded. Elder dragons are deeply respected for their wisdom and knowledge. They often serve as advisors or guardians in their respective territories. The elder dragons' vast experience makes them invaluable in guiding the younger generations and in maintaining the balance of power within Kanturas.

	==~~== Adult ==~~==		== Morality and Society ==
	~~When dragons~~ are ~~around 100 years old~~ they are ~~considered adult dragons~~. ~~They~~ can ~~grow up to~~ the ~~size~~ of ~~a bus~~ in the ~~adult fase (with folded wings)~~.		Dragons in Kanturas are unique in that they are not inherently evil or good; rather, their actions and dispositions are influenced by how they are raised. A dragon raised with kindness and respect can become a benevolent protector of the realm. Conversely, one that is mistreated or neglected might turn hostile or withdrawn. This dynamic underlines the importance of upbringing in shaping the dragons' integration into the diverse societies of Kanturas.
