Dragon

Dragons are very powerful magical creatures. The most prominent varieties are chromatic dragons, who are typically evil, and metallic dragons, who are typically good.

True dragons are of ancient lineage and fearsome power. They are known and feared for their predatory cunning and greed, with the oldest dragons accounted as some of the most powerful creatures in the world.
