Emerald Dragon - Reference — Description
Coloured pencil and 3 green pens, 2008 Sept 10. (*silently sniffs about the murdered colours*)

Now then....
This would be the second of 5 or 6 gem dragon references. (Still got to decide whether I make a gem draggie of my own, the ruby one, because D&D seems to lack it... O.O) The idea as with the amethyst dragon came from the fact that I didn't like the Monster Manual II illustrations that much (although the emerald one I still found quite okay). So. There you go, enjoy the green shininess! ^.^

Emerald dragons are charismatic and are the keepers of vast amount of knowledge, usually knowing almost everything of interest in the region they live in. They are also very distrustful towards visitors, almost paranoid, but most likely they will just hide and watch the intruder until he/she would do something provoking (stealing from the treasure hoard or attacking the wyrmlings).

Unlike amethyst dragons, they are driven by strict order and discipline, but they are not swayed by morality (good) or any form of malice (evil). In D&D terms, they're Lawful Neutral.

They prefer living in the cones of extinct (or rarely, still active) volcanoes, or close to some form of civilization (but not too close so the population would disturb them).

Criticism is welcome as usual.
