Species Notes
Chinese dragons used almost exclusively in the military. They are described as liking fighting so much as to be useless for anything other than the aerial corps of the Chinese army. Laurence and his crew considered them as large dragons. They were crimson red, with gold-tinted talons and a yellow crest running down their spines from the many-horned head.
Scarlet Flowers were exclusively partnered with women, not because they refused male companions but because only women served in the Chinese aerial corps. This practice was defended by the legend of a woman who disguised herself as a man, became the companion of a military dragon, and saved her country from disaster. The emperor of the time having approved girls as acceptable for service with dragons, gradually women had come to dominate the aerial force.
