This nonviolent nature is uncommon in dragons and wyverns, a trait which they carry into the raising of their young; as they are extremely nurturing and protective parents. The sulfur dragon breed is thought to have started as the bastard spawn of weak red dragons. They cannot breathe fire; instead they emit, from their highly acidic bowls, hot clouds of noxious gases to suffocate and burn their prey. They are highly aggressive when it comes to protecting their young, and will even fight larger dragons to the death if they attempt to raid the nest. Many human sects with time have come to admire the parental nature of the spotted yellow, and it is used as a symbol of the stalwart guardian. They spend much of their lives on the wing, hunting airborne creatures and other animals; actively avoiding human settlements or other sentience. Sulfur dragons are also strangely communal; in the fashion of some avians they may position their clutches in a defensive perimeter (though they may be miles apart.) If an especially dangerous threat invades their territories they may band together and swarm the threat. ^Dragon Hunters actively slay the spotted yellow, as with any other drak; even though they pose little threat to humankind. Their scales are highly prized and are used as the raiment of royalty in some cases. The golden sheen of their hides make them pop out in their environment, ironically making them easy targets. The spotted yellow is considered the only dragon of size and temperament to allow human riders, though they must be raised from the egg; wild yellows are much too prideful for this.
