Drakons, Lynirian (3.5e Race)

Template:Dragon Sigil

Lynirian Drakons

Lynir is a fetid land of poisonous swamps & marshes and dense, humid jungles. Very few creatures can survive in the harsh, noxious land, but those that can are a force to be reckoned with. Lynirian drakons are one of the many different drakon breeds. These unsightly beasts are slightly more evolved than common drakons, being capable of somewhat complex thought and possessing forelimbs. Due to living in the foul conditions of Lynir, they have traded their heat resistance for protection from the nauseating environment and, over time, they have developed poisons of their own that slowly decompose their prey so they can roast them easily with their breath of flames. Lynirian drakons are significantly smarter than than their common cousins, being capable of taking classes and speaking in common, and more closely nit together. While common drakons tend to roam alone, Lynirians congregate in large communities.

Personality

Even though they are more intelligent, it does not make them any less aggressive and territorial. However, as they are more intelligent, they are very prideful. They often demand services from other, lesser, reptilian creatures like kobalds and Yuan-Ti.

Lynirian drakons maintain a more draconic or lizard-like body, with tow hind-limbs, two forelimbs and a large tail for thrashing.

Alignment

usually chaotic.

Lands

Lynirian drakons mostly reside in humid jungles and mucky swamps.

Language

Drakons speak common and draconic.
