Editing Age of Dragons: Hunter Dragons (section)

==Nature, Red in Tooth and Claw==

Dragons are animals. It is a truth that the other breeds often deny or choose to forget, but to the ''Hunter Dragons'', it is a truth that is self-evident. They are aware that nature is a pyramid of predator and prey and they see that as ''Dragons'', their place is at the head of the food chain.

Many other breeds often assume that because ''Hunters'' live as animals, that they lack the wit to adopt civilised ways. The ''Hunters'' know better - they have seen civilisation and they know that it makes dragons weak. They have seen the land poisoned and warped by those who espouse "progress" and they know that their way is better. 

''Hunter Dragons'' point out that you only have to look at the blunt stubby claws and shortened teeth of the other breeds to recognise the harm that their weak ways are doing them.

''Hunters'' believe in survival of the fittest, and in living in the old ways. On the one hand, their ways can seem cruel - they will kill stunted and disfigured young, and they will leave the sick and crippled to fend for themselves. On the other hand, no-one can deny that the ''Hunters'' have a vibrancy of soul and a strength of form that few others can match.

"This is nature," they say, "red in tooth and claw. ''Hunt or be hunted.''"
