* With the amount of genetic engineering thrown around in ''[[Duumvirate]]'', it was inevitable that someone made a dragon with it. Fire breath, six legs (two of which end in hands), and they have wings in childhood but lose them as they grow up. |

* [[Tamora Pierce]]'s [[Tortall Universe|dragons]] live in their own realm (imaginatively named [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|Dragonland]]), are essentially immortal, can [[Giant Flyer|fly]], and are both magical and absurdly intelligent. Interestingly, they don't have a huge antipathy towards humans unless provoked - they more or less consider the puny humans to be below their notice. In one book elders dragons are explicitly stated as being significantly stronger than most gods. |
