Lindwyrm

Physical Description

Lindwyrms look like small snakes with horn-like structures on their heads, they also have a sharp tailtip and 2 front legs, their claws are very sharp, and they have slit eyes, they have good senses, and they are known to spit a foul-tasting, blinding liquid, they use this like spitting cobras, they sometimes bite their own tails to roll around like a wagon wheel, and they may be dragons but they have no wings and cannot fly.

A green Lindwyrm. From PNG mart

History

Lindwyrms come from Scandinavian folklore, but this is D&D, so lets say they are offsprings of wyverns and such.

Society

Lindwyrms don't really have society, HOWEVER, I can tell you that their eggs must be laid under the bark of linden trees, once they hatch, they slither away and make a home inside of a pile of rocks.

Lindwyrm Names

Lindwyrm Names are often the typical dragon names, the only name I could really find is Fafnir, so ya, dragon names.
