Slumadragon
Slumadragons are small tree lizards that primarily inhabit the forests of Sundorwick and Firgenholt. Their name is derived from their primary diet which is Slumaberries. Slumadragons are immune to the effects of the Slumaberry. They often move quite slowly, but their bodies are capable of digesting large amounts of Slumaberries without putting the Slumadragon into deep slumber. When frightened or infuriated, Slumadragons can lash out with great speed to bite or scratch their victims. The consumption of Slumaberry causes the lizards to develop a super-concentrated venom that tranquilizes their victims almost instantly. This is a condition called Heomenome which is essentially a deep coma in which the victim stays in an induced state of sleep for an extended period of time.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Slumadragons are small tree lizards that can appear in size from a small as the palm of your hand, to as long as your forearm. The lizard's feet are padded with the ability to swiftly climb trees when escaping predators, though its normal pace is rather slow.
Genetics and Reproduction
Slumadragons lay eggs inside of small dens they craft in burrows beneath Slumaberry Bushes. These eggs, when matured, hatch, and the hatchlings are able to immediately feed upon the Slumaberries around them.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Slumadragons primarily feast upon Slumaberries, but they are also known to consume small insects and the leaves of some vines.
Slumadragons have an extremely irregular sleeping schedule. You can find one awake at nearly any hour of the day if you are looking for one, and it is rare to find one that is asleep at all.
