The most important rule is "no dragon is allowed under any circumstances to leave the island". The reason is that, in the ancient years, dragons and humans used to live together, But as humans wanted to be dominmat species, they started hunting the dragons in the excuse that they were unholy. The remaining dragons were isolated on this island. This explains the origins of the dragon legends humans have. This also explains the law against leaving the island. the authority know about the past and the human world, but they keep it secret from the world
ANTHROS: I would like to clear something up. Dragons are devided into two kinds. The anthros and the animal dragons. The second are what the word say. The animals of the island. Anthros are the people,of the island that have the human body morph (anthro comes from the greek word anthropus meaning human). All anthros have the ability to temporary transform into their animal form. They are hatched in their animal form and learn how to transform at the age af 2-3. NOTE: Just because anthros have an animal form doesnt mean they have the animal abilities. Their hearing, eyesight and smell is exactely like human's. They also have human like hands and feet (no claws people!!!) Also, animal and anthro dragons have important facial differences (a way to tell apart an animal form an anthro in his anial form). Anthros have more facial muscles than animals for facial expresisons. Also, anthro's eyes are placed at the front of the skull.
TDO: Yes, we are all used to live with many species together in harmony. But it hasn't always been that way. Many years ago, being a false or a water dragon meant that you were a "germ" an outcast... True dragons were the true ones! Fortunately now, racism has mostly disappeared. Only a small group called TDO (True dragons only) are racists. They are mostly found in Pash city (the poorest city of the island) and usually wear a white scarf.
TRANSPORTATION: Anthros use carriers to move about. Carriers are animals that a wingless (or even a winged) anthro can rent or buy. Some anthros may be carriers for a living. They transform and carry you under payment (like a taxi driver in the human world). There also are hover vehicles. Those vehicles are owned by the government and extremey rare by citizents (one rare occation is Billy-cause he used to work for the government). These vehicles include: Trains, busses, hospital vehicles, police vehicles, trash vehicles, postman's vehicle etc. They dont needa key, but turn on by using a fingertip recognition program.
FOOD ON THE ISLAND: Being an anthro, you can't eat other dragons. Imagine being a griffin and the day's specialite was roasted griffin! Very uncomfortable! Anthros eat everything a human eats. Chicken, beef, pork etc. Of course we also have fish, fruit and vegetable. The only dfference between anthros and humans in their diet, is the eggs. Durting medieval times, dragons ate eggs just like humans. But as they seperated themselves and started evolving alone, dragons stopped that habit, and today eating eggs is considered something extremely discusting, like eating dead babies.
FASHION: There are three types of shirts on the island.
1: For the winged anthros (e.g Poseidon). They have two cuts on the back for the wings. 2. Anthros that have wings attached on their arms (e.g Johnny). They have a "zipper" at the bottom of the sleeves for the wings 3: Shirts for wingless dragons Also, having wings with veins in them can be very hard during winter. So, there are special wing gloves that come out in many sizes and colors.
NON TRANSFORMING DRUG (NTD) AND INSTARND TRANSFORMING DRUG (ITD): NTD is a drug that temporary remove's an anthro's ability to transform. ITD is the oposite. It forces the body to transform. The transformation is slow and often painful Those drugs are used by police and hospitals.
THE PROTECTOR: Some believe that he is not real. He is a person/creature that watches over Yann city, mostly at night. He appears only when people need help. Descriptions say that he looks like a mountain dragon with metallic claws and spits a blue flame. Reporters have often tried to find his identity but failed. Some people who believe in him - mostly children, leave a bowl of sugar outside during night. The next morning they find the bowl empty - the Protector was there! (who is he?)
PNEVMA SPIRITS: live in dark caves on high mountains. they are all females. If one falls in love with a mortal man, then she is forced to live inside him, in his heart. After that, they can not stray from their host or they will fade away and die.
