Dragon Youngling

Adversaries Designed by tommydmac

Adversary overview

A dragon who is at least 100 years old. These dragons have outlasted their competitors and gathered a substantial hoard.

A dragon becomes a more obvious threat as it ages into a youngling, but its cunning should not be forgotten. Older dragons can draw on inner primal magic to destroy anyone that challenges their power.
