[QUOTE="Gfreak2x9, post: 6130562, member: 6707306"] I recently posted a thread about dragons and I got to thinking...Why is it that they don't interbreed?

I understand that these two dragons live in very different climates but what stops them from finding a place where they can both live? Or better yet flying over long distances to meet up anyway? This idea may seem a little out there but humor me for a moment. What stops a Red Dragon from mating with a black one? Or vise versa? They are both CE, they both like to kill things, they are both dragons! Seems a fitting match to me! I mean lets say the male was a Black Dragon. They are known for cruelty, and dominance. What stops him from (to put it politely) [B][I]insisting [/I][/B]that a younger, weaker, female Red Dragon come over for a night at his lair? I have heard it said that dragons can breed with anything, so why not eachother? You have to admit a Half Red, Half Black Dragon would be one CRUEL beast.
