Snow dragon

Look, it's a tiger...err...
 
No its not a tiger its a dragon although it looks nothing like it.
No really it is! It's a snow dragon i swear!
 
Characteristics: Ice/Snow dragons are a sub-species of the elemental dragons. They have smaller ears and longer fur to keep in heat in its colder climate. It's height is about 4 feet at the shoulder. Base color ranges from white to red-brown and will have patterns such as wolf, tiger, snow leopard and lynx although not always. Males normally have quills once they mature.
 
Habitat: Snow dragons range from Alaska to Northern Canada in the birch and spruce forests. Ice dragons live at a higher altitude then snow dragons although they are still considered the same species.
 
Diet: carnivorous and will eat anything it can kill.
 
Temperament: Hot tempered and irritable. easy to provoke. not very trusting but fiercely loyal once you gain its trust.
 
Magic: unlike the elemental snow/ice dragons do not have control over anything but themselves, meaning, they can change physical characteristics to a certain extent. The ability to change eye color with their moods and change the size of their wings. In moments of extreme emotion their fur color will often change to a solid bright color reflection its eyes.
 
snow/ice dragons are not very fast but their strength and stamina make up for it.
