The large dragon in front of you is covered with protruding spikes, like a bramble bush. It's dull gray scales barely glint in the sunlight as it approaches. It glares at you as it's beak-like mouth opens wide.

Many of them are master tacticians and often work with groups of allies to achieve thir aims. Becaue they share the same territory, these allies are often dwarves.
