General

• Dragons can fly as soon as their wings are dry, but to prevent injury they aren't allowed to fly until one Turn old.
• The wingspan is usually 1 and 2/3 the length of the dragon.
• As dragons age, their finger tip and elbow joints harden, making maneuvers difficult, but gliding is possible since that's done with the shoulder.
