Category:Western Dragons

The Western Dragon is basically the classical dragon. They have four thick, powerful legs and scales covering their bodies, similar to those of a crocodile, with a barbed, serpentine tail. Their wings are commonly membranous, like those of a bat. The heads of Western Dragons are large and wedge-shaped like that of a crocodile or monitor lizard with a crest, horns, or antlers.

While it is likely that all of these Western dragon species are closely related, there are differences. For example, the rich flame of the European dragon is produced from combustible venom and that of a Knucker does not ignite at all (Knucker dragons are usually serpentine and will have small decorative wings they cannot actually fly with). Frost dragon venom is sprayed in a mist through Arctic air that has a corrosive action similar to the effects of frost bite. Most species in the cave are European style dragons.
