Official Dragon Descriptions

Egg

"This massive egg is covered with thick plates."

Hatchling

"Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. This large hatchling is well-protected by its thick, scaly hide. It is pushy and aggressive toward other dragons."

Mature Hatchling

"Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. This large hatchling is well-protected by its thick, scaly hide. It is pushy and aggressive toward other dragons.
And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing."

Adult

"Plated Colossus Dragons are one of the largest dragon species. These huge brutes are notorious bullies—they prefer to steal food from other dragons rather than finding it for themselves. As their thick hides are impervious to most forms of physical attack, Plated Colossi simply ignore the other dragons’ protests, or lash the offending dragon with their club-like tail, which can easily break a limb. Plated Colossi have slow metabolisms and do not need to eat often, but they may consume nearly half their body weight in one feeding. These dragons are not incredibly clever and any discussion with them will often center around eating."

Additional Information

  • Regarding the females' beard/dewlap:
It is a little beardie/dewlap thing that she can inflate to appear larger. The bright color is used to attract a male's attention - either to try and intimidate him or impress him during breeding season.
