Hello my monster lovelies I feel I must apologies for this not being a chapter
but one of my reviewers pointed out that I haven't exactly established any lore to this story
and this is going to do just that. And spoilers alert, but that is mostly in the character lore.
Dragon lore.
1. Dragons posses the ability to either change other species into either full blooded dragons or a unique fusion between the intended subjects original species and a dragon. The full dragon transformation happens when a dragon directly infuses their blood into the targets heart by slicing open the individuals chest slicing through bone and flesh and drawing blood from said dragon and allowing the blood direct contact with the non-dragons heart. Or if they are a blood dragon their tongue will shoot out and pierce the heart and pump blood into them. This also allows the newly turned dragon the access to their makers entire life and allowing the second born dragon to relive every moment of their own life up to the point of the turning. The intended target of the turning will be forced into a coma like state while the changes to their soul and mind occur once the subject awakens their body will be put into a large crystal like formation made of their own draconic energy for their body to change. They will start out as a newly hatched dragon, though they will age rapidly to the point where their human form before they turned.
2. When a dragon takes a mate of another species the dragon can adopt the form of their partners species. This is to insure any and all possible offspring don't come into the world in a malformed baby. If this does happen the chances of the infant surviving are less than one percent. If a dragon takes a second born dragon as a mate they will gain some aspects of their mates dragon form, be it a spade tipped tail to larger wings to even extra horns. The added features become permanent aspects of the dragon.
3. In order for a dragon to make someone a double breed they must ingest the dragons blood and wish for the change. this will also insure the survival of any children.
4. Dragons of both gender have complete control of their reproduction. This means that if one of a mated pair doesn't feel they are ready for children they need to make the decision to not have kids and then no kids no matter how much intercourse the mated pair have.
5. Dragons will have the capacity to make a human form after they hit 75 years of age. Verbal communication comes when they are roughly three days old.
6. Half dragons will still have their original species' weakness but at a much lesser degree Ex. Half Dragon Half vampire will be capable of physical contact with water for a limited time but this time can be lengthened given the proper training.
7. the chances of a second born dragon becoming an elemental dragon is rather high. the dragons blood responsible for turning them more or less latches on to the recipients soul and uses that as the initial building point for their new dragon body. As such will determine if they will be an elemental.
8. Dragons are revered as gods by some species most being reptile species the most common among the serving individual would the lamia and other all female reptilian species. And mated pairs between lamias and dragons often produce more offspring than most other non dragon mated pair the record would be around seven children between a lamia and a dragon.
9. Some dragons can achieve levels of strength of the gods. there can only be one "Dragon God" per element and if a dragon wants that title they will either have to be the offspring of said 'dragon god' or gain enough strength to challenge them and kill them.
10. When a dragon turns an individual into either a full dragon or half dragon they will not need an external seal to maintain a human form. In cases of individuals with seals so powerful they create a secondary 'soul' the dragons blood will latch on to both souls so both survive and continue to share a body or split themselves apart with little to no repercussions.
11. The majority of the dragon population live on an island in the middle of the pacific ocean within a dimensional bubble similarly to yokai academy. Along side several types of elves and some small colonies of humans. The dragon royals are the reigning power on the Island of Dracos. These royals are said to be the strongest of all dragons.
12. Some dragon that are still inside of their eggs will pick an individual besides their parents to take care of them and will await for their intended caretakers to make contact with the egg. These caretakers can be selected thousands of years in advance.
13. Should both parents of a nest be killed protecting their nest a small group of female dragons are then responsible for the eggs and the young. These female dragons are referred to as Nest Mothers. The Nest Mothers are female dragons who are incapable of having families of their own whether they are to old, lost their mate before they could have children of their own and intend to be eternally faithful to their deceased mate, or were born being incapable of reproduction entirely.
14. Most baby dragons possess the ability to change gender for a few days after hatching. Most prefer to remain as the gender they are born with. After the few days females loose the ability to switch genders on command, where as male dragons this ability merely goes dormant. In the event said males take a mate and lay eggs and their mate is killed before all of the eggs hatch the gender swap ability reactivates, and their female forms are capable of producing milk in order to feed the babies who have to wait weeks for their teeth to come in. Once reactivated this ability will remain in their skillset.
15. Both genders of dragons are capable of getting females of other species pregnant.
16. It is not uncommon for dragon parents find others to help protect the nest and will often look to other species. These individuals are called Nest Defenders. There is a limit to how many Nest Defenders a single nest as each Nest Defender will be a specific element such as lightning of fire. The process to "Create" the nest defenders is that they must have the blood of either the male of females of the nest infuse their blood into the veins of the individual typically the blood is introduce into the arms halfway up the forearm the preferred method is the dragon responsible for the nest defender is using the claw on their pointer finger to slice their hand in a straight line leading to the base of the finger letting the blood flow when using said bloodied claw to pierce the skin, just deep enough to gain access to the recipients own blood. Once this is done what appears to be three connected claw marks will appear somewhere on the defenders body the location is always random.
17. As the centuries pass the ratio of male to female dragons has been shifting more towards the female side. As such male dragons have been permitted to form harems of females either from their own species of from other species. As decried by one of the old dragon kings.
