==Titanium 22== Titanium dragons are one of the physically strongest species of dragons in existence--they are nearly as resistant to chemical-based damage as Platinum dragons, their scales are extremely strong, and despite weighing significantly less than the typical Iron or Steel dragon, they possess just as much strength as most, if not all members of the former, as well as many instances of the latter. They are very resistant to corrosion, and are one of the few species willing to take on Sulfur and Chlorine dragons, though even a Titanium keeps a wary distance from the deadly Fluorines on the rare occasions that they enter the warmer climates. They are also quite resistant to heat and electricity compared to other types of dragon, though their strength wanes when exposed to very high temperatures for extended periods of time; notably, their scales, normally a silvery grey-white colour, tend to be shed more frequently in hotter environments, and after shedding, fade to white and and be ground into a powder that is highly sought as a pigment. A Titanium is easily overlooked in a draconic lineup, being barely larger than an adult human or orcish male, with an alert countenance and eyes that are ever roaming, seeking danger and threats. Their most distinctive feature is an extraordinarily elongated tail, being nearly half again as long as the dragon itself. Some of the largest males have been recorded as ten feet from tail base to tip. The dragon itself has very small scales, almost invisible from a distance, but the tail scales are much larger and more hexagonal. These impressive structures are used for both defense, lashing out as a deadly whip, and for mating displays. By raising the tail into the air, the Titanium dragon male uses his scales to reflect the sun in brilliant flashes with a large range of colours, attracting mates. The Titanium dragon tends to be aggressive in the wild, living in large social groups of several dozen and constantly competing for status among their peers. Their greatest strength, however, is perhaps located in the versatility that their offspring show, specifically their hybrids, whose natural traits and inclinations can range from military knowledge to medical application, and in a few rare cases, some that even possess all the traits needed for them to be capable of flights into the planet's upper atmosphere and beyond, up to and including metabolisms that eliminate the need for oxygen. Due to this, alongside a general inclination towards non-similar dragon breeds, Titanium dragons will almost always live and mate with dragons from other breeds if they have a choice, typically preferring Iron, Aluminum, Vanadium, or Molybdenum partners, and with the relatively high rate at which Titanium dragons can produce offspring, both hybrid and pure, they remain one of the most common species of Metallic dragons in existence.
