Boneshark Dragon

"A sliver of white and a flash of teeth, there is little savagery mortals could come up with to compare to this." - Emperor Valian

Certainly not the largest by far, but often known as the most ruthless. Their size scales up quite quickly from their average size as adults to much wider, larger, powerful, and much more dangerous the older these creatures become. These are aggressive, territorial, and often nefarious beings behind plots and terrible dark portents for the world. Though, some find their various plots and deeds foolish, and live reclusive lives instead fostering a brood or otherwise.
