There were many types of dragons, but the pearly white Frost dragons such as Winter Wind were considered to be the most mysterious and beautiful of all the dragons. Of course they were much smaller, and their hide not was not as thick or as  lethal other dragons such as fire breathers.  But they were the fastest most acrobatic  and often thought to be the most cunning of their species making them greatly admired by all dragon riders from all nations.<br/><br/>Frost Dragon's often live high up in the snowy mountain tops borrowing in glaciers. Occasionally during the winter seasons on of the more curious adolescent frost dragons might be seen flying venturing out of the mountains to look around, likely during a heavy snow fall as they blend in quite well with the snow.<br/><br/>Some hunters have attempted to use airplanes and helicopters to attempt to capture them, but any fast dragon are more than capable of out maneuvering the bulky machines in rough terrain... and the frost dragons are notorious for leading pilots into the mountain passes to meet their doom.<br/><br/>Dragon riders then began attempting to pursue a Frost Dragon with another dragon although proven somewhat affective, is still was considered to be extremely dangerous as many wild dragons will not hesitate to turn around and unseat the human rider....Also Frost Dragons, being able withstand extreme cold and to high altitudes that rival most modern U2 spy planes, simply take refuge in the heavens where the air is too thin to breath for dragon riders to pursue safely<br/><br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/74/91/e9/7491e977b201e3078ac4cee1744a6819.jpg">[ img ]</a><br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="https://secure.static.tumblr.com/8eefb080fa7d1deb46011071a50d208e/d9qrhrq/k3Rn95b0g/tumblr_static_tumblr_static_filename_1280.jpg">[ img ]</a><br/><br/><br/>B A S I C - I N F O R M A T I O N<br/>Name: Winter Wind<br/>Species: Frost Dragon, shifter<br/><br/>Winter was not at all what most people pictured the stereotypical frost dragon to be. His shimmering white opalescent scales were not  hard frozen plates of ice or diamond. But rather smooth pearly white discs that where warm and silky soft to the touch. Even his the bristles on his back, though looking appearing to be jagged spikes, they where malleable soft fuzzy white velvet... much like the fuzzy velvet on deer antlers.<br/><br/>As a hatchling, Winter Wind grew up in the snow covered mountains living in caverns carved out into the mountain glaciers. It was a place, most hunters wouldn't risk the climb and humans often found the air up there extremely difficult to breath. Unfortunately, there was not as much food there and the older he got he was required to go  further down to hunt bigger game as merely birds and eggs hidden the rocks made for a tasty treat but for the fully grown frost dragon was as big as clydesdale only lower to the ground, with massive white wings, long neck tail and the shimmering pearly white scales that radiated wonderful colorful hues of light as he soared high above the clouds.<br/><br/>Needless to say, the further down the mountains he went the more dangerous it was. Not that many creatures would be foolish enough to attack a dragon, he didn't need to worry about them, what he needed to watch for were humans.<br/><br/>As Winter grew older, he became more curious about the humans and their strange noisy machines that sped around on the paved roads below as well as their lights and big buildings. He purposefully always flew high enough to keep from being detected.  Occasionally some humans would attempt to chase with him helicopters or airplanes. Although he wasn't fast enough to out run them , he was much more maneuverable and he could easily lose them up in the mountains as they would never dare pursue him into that white mist... at least if they ever wanted to come back out again...<br/>-<br/>The most annoying and hardest to get rid of were other Dragons who allowed humans to fly on their backs for some reason.  Winter had several encounters with dragon riders, the easiest way to get rid of them was too take out the human rider. But that could be tricky as some Dragons they were riding were a lot older and much bigger than he was.... it wasn't exactly a smart move to pick a fight with an older protective fire dragon.  Fortunately that wasn't always necessary, Winter found that humans....for whatever reason they couldn't fly past a certain altitude before they fell out of the saddle and plummeted to their death!<br/><br/>=<br/><br/>PRESSENT<br/><br/>Thick fluffy white snow flakes fell from an overcast cloudy sky. Blanketing the lowlands into three feet of fresh powdery snow. The temperatures had plummeted to a below zero. It was cold day that was not fit for rider or dragon to be out in..... but for curious young frost dragons like Winter it was the perfect time to come out of the mountains and explore.<br/><br/>His majestic snowy white silhouette was nearly invisible as he glided over the country side. Winter was searching for a particular place that he had seen once before....  a curious place where he had seen other dragons flying around and some where even being ridden by humans....<br/><br/>A white plume of snow rose up into the wind from the place where he crash landed into a field. There had been several dragons out in this place before,.....but apparently now they were in the large warm human building that horses sometimes stayed in....  come to think of it, Winter was feeling bit hungry and a horse did sound like a tasty meal.  His bright curious yellow eye glanced over toward the large barn, but he wasn't all that thrilled about going inside as it as it was rather a bit large and ominous looking to him and he didn't want to risk getting trapped inside.... but....yes he would wait until they came out in the morning.<br/><br/>Winter leapt into the air and perched himself on top of the barn roof and curled himself up waiting expectantly for the humans to let out the tasty farm animals. When the morning came it had snowed a full three and half feet of snow and Winter's form was for the most part covered.... A fairly observant person might question the curious tracks around the house.... and someone paying close attention to  detail, might notice two glowing hungry blue eyes watching from an usually large mound of snow from on top of the barn roof.
