Dragons, sometimes referred to as Drakes, were large, winged reptilian creatures. Often found in magical realms, they had a voracious appetite. While, in some universes, Dragons were intelligent creatures with the power of speech, in others they were mere beasts, albeit with the cunning of a predator.
