Toad dragons are huge, brooding, primeval horrors. They are, thankfully for the fate of many, blessedly few in number, and largely confined to the trackless, otherworldly swamps known as the Cold Mires under the coruscating skies of the far west. These huge beasts are mindlessly violent, very hard to kill, and have a dire repute in the legends of the Northern Wastes which name them for their appearance and raw power, when in truth they are perhaps far closer to the lumbering dinosaurs that inhabit the jungles of the far south than the true and ancient dragons. Smothering Bulk. The strength of a toad dragon is prodigious, as is its appetite, while its tainted breath is so corrosively foul that it can liquefy flesh and wither steel in mere moments. Those it does not devour or smash flat into the ground it smothers beneath its feculent bulk as it crawls across the earth. its questing tongue darting out with terrifying speed to snatch up more victims to disappear down its yawning maw. Such is the fearsome might of these lumbering horrors of a forgotten age. |
