In almost every race and culture there are myths and legends concerning dragons. As the peoples of the world move into the digital age, so too does their culture. In the online metaverse of Second Life, where imagination rules above all else, the fabled dragons of legend truly live and breathe.
We are fortunate to be alive in these exciting times, where Astral dragons foretell the alignment of the stars and great Fire Drakes breathe searing flame across the land.

The New Breeds
Fabled explorer Daryth Kennedy has travelled the mountains, swamps, plains and islands of Second Life cataloguing many new species, breeds and types of dragon, which, though rooted firmly in the historical imagery and lore of the ancient and modern world, represent a new evolution of these mystical creatures.
Collated here for the first time in one location are her journal entries and wisdom on these new breeds:
