We get to learn about...<br /><br />the Dragon<br /><br />MOM Classification: XXXXX<br /><br />The entry prefaces by saying that dragons are among the most famous magical creatures because they&rsquo;re so hard to hide. They&rsquo;re also fucking awesome, of course, so no shocker there. The females are larger and more vicious than the males of any species- which seems to sum up Rowling&rsquo;s attitude toward women pretty well, depending. There are ten pure breeds of dragon, but I&rsquo;m not sure that&rsquo;s the right word to use. See, &ldquo;breed&rdquo; is almost always used to mean a domestic animal specifically designed for various purposes- since I don&rsquo;t see how that could apply to dragons (although, you never know- the Acromantula was bred by humans orignally too) it seems more likely that what the author really means is something along the lines of &ldquo;subspecies&rdquo; or &ldquo;races&rdquo; (but probably not separate species, since the dragons can interbreed).<br /><br />Next I&rsquo;ll cover each individual, ah, let&rsquo;s say race of dragon.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=deathtocapslock&ditemid=159267" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
