January 16th - Earth Dragon Day Bronze Dragons originally dwelled in mountain caves or subterranean lairs. They're the source of the mythos about dragon's hoarding treasure, but as with most things it isn't quite what it seems. Bronze dragons love weath but their definition of wealth is the wealth of the abundant land, lush green forests, sparkling waterfalls, flower sprinkled meadows. They are by their very nature ecologists. They can also be eco-terrorists if they feel their land is being destroyed. They can wreck any level of havoc when they're upset but one of their favourite things to do is take back all the gold and silver and jewels they can find. After all it came from either "their" land or the land of a brother or sister dragon if people value those things more highly than nature why what else is a poor dragon to do to get some attention?
