Hi, my name is Kinder. I’m a dragon…a red dragon. The best kind…that’s right, believe the hype! Go red dragons! Whoo-hoo!
Anyway, for clarity’s sake, my name is pronounced like, “kindling” or “kindred.” Keep that in mind. It pisses me off to no end to be called, “Kinder” with a hard “I”, like “finder”. Don’t pull that shit.
As a dragon, I live in a hole. It’s a nasty hole with ends of worms and crap like that. That sounds like the beginning of a famous story. Well, similar, anyway.
I don’t really live in a hole. That’s an understatement. I live in a cave. It’s a fairly nice cave, too. Not as far up the mountain as I’d like, but what are you going to do? The really high up ones are already taken by elders…and those suckers are HUGE…the caves and the dragons. But, once one of them dragons dies…heh, heh…all mine.
Just kidding. I’m pretty far down from the summit. A lot of dragons would have to die for me to move up that far. But, that’s OK…the air’s not so thin down here and easier to get some wing on.
Now you might think I could challenge another dragon to a fight or something to get a better cave. Nah…doesn’t work like that. Dragons don’t fight dragons. Well, usually. Sometimes a wizard may cause a dragon to fight another dragon…but that’s pretty rare. Damn the wizards, anyway. They’re like all the bad parts of humans. Real scumbags.
No, dragons are pretty civil…when it comes to other dragons. The elders say what goes…for the most part…and they definitely forbid us from fighting amongst ourselves.
However, we often do sneak around behind their backs…yeah, like all the freakin’ time.
Like, for instance, young dragons…not whelps, but a little older…they like to get together with the opposite sex and have fun. You know what I mean. The elders don’t particularly mind…propagation of the species and all that. However, it’s a well-known fact that dragons of different colors cannot produce children. So, here we go! Let’s have fun! Grab yourself a hottie of a different hue and get laid!
Now, I’m not exactly “young”, but I’m far from old. I have no partner and no children. I’m always up for some female companionship…and I like the blue females. Yeah, boy! They’re more friendly than the green or black dragonesses (in fact, the green ones are just plain nasty)…and they don’t get attached and want to hang around your cave all the time. Big plus. And, they’re willing to go that extra little bit that really makes a difference.
But, I digress….
