About Dragons
Hoards, wings, and fire — dragon fic includes dragon riders, dragon shifters, dragon companions, and characters who simply are dragons with all the territorial instincts that implies. Hoarding behavior applied to loved ones is a beloved sub-genre of its own.
Dragons combine power, loyalty, and treasure-logic in one mythic package, and readers especially adore the moment a dragon decides a person belongs in the hoard.
Common scenarios: A dragon-shifter courting someone by leaving increasingly valuable objects on their doorstep, or a rider and dragon bonded so deeply the line between them blurs.
