The Draconian norns are a very different breed of Norn to those that you may have raised before. Having evolved in a very different environment to that of the Albian Norns, there are a number of important differences that you need to be aware of when raising Draconians.

While the adults are hardier, resistant to infection and injury, the newborn wyrmlings are not so lucky. When newly hatched, extra care needs to be taken to keep them away from harm as their unfinished bones and scales are weak and fragile, and their immune system hasn't fully adapted to cope with invading bacteria or toxins. They have some limited resistance from when they were a part of their mother, but this can fade quickly.

As they grow to childhood, they gain more control over their powerful immune system and can begin to explore safely without risk of a dangerous infection. At the adult stage, they gain extra immunological advancements and can fight off infections and injury easier than regular Norns.

They age slower, and live longer, spending roughly 60% more time in each life-stage. In general, their biochemistry is more relaxed than a regular Norn's. Chemicals will not degrade so quickly in their systems: This applies to medicines and toxins alike.

Draconians are carnivorous: They eat meat. Feed them critters; feed them bugs. They can digest plants, too, but they really prefer meat. Feed them pests, but be warned that some pests, such as stingers, can be very poisonous and can overwhelm a baby Draconian Norn's immune response very quickly.
