Physiology[]
Dragons are a special group of reptiles that may reach near-giant sizes and often with great lifespan. Dragons of Runeterra have great species diversity, with over 200 types of talking dragons being present in Ionia alone according to 
Irelia.
The firstborn female dragons of certain dragon bloodlines have elemental rune shards within them, which gives them their elemental powers. There are numerous types of elemental dragons as there are elemental magics. In the 
Runeterra Prime universe the only known types of dragons are Air, Earth, Water, Fire, and Elder, with other types being mostly related to the larger Multiverse.
In Runeterra Prime, there are over five types of elemental dragons, including 
Cloud, 
Infernal, 
Mountain, 
Ocean drakes and 
Elder Dragons. While dragons reside across Runeterra, most elemental drakes live in Ixtal and can rarely be found elsewhere.[1]
Curiously, the abandoned ruins scattered throughout 
Ixtal are home to a surprising number of dragons. These terrifying creatures have not fought alongside mortals since the last days of Shurima's war against the Void—now, for the most part, they seem content just to be left alone.
