What are dragons like in “real life”?
Dragons come from all walks of life, span all ages from schoolchildren to grandparents, are widely distributed geographically (no, this isn’t just a California thing), and in general are hard to pick out in a crowd. Speaking from experience, though, I will observe that most dragons seem to be introspective individuals, many of whom felt a social detachment from their peers at an early age, and many of whom are either well-educated people or bright underachievers. Draconity cuts across gender lines, although males apparently outnumber females (which is true of just about any group on the Internet). The majority of dragons are avid readers, and unsurprisingly, they seem to enjoy fantasy/science-fiction novels.
