Yellow Dragon

Description   Yellow Dragons were Dragons that were found in the deserts of Volatia. A very rare species of Chromatic Dragon, only a few individuals of this species had been spotted throughout history. Yellow Dragons grew up to 116ft in length, smaller than a Brass Dragon. They were born with soft, tan-colored scales. As they aged, the scales became harder and lighter in color, turning a yellow-grey color by adulthood. Their claws, scales and teeth all blended into the desert background, giving the Yellow Dragon amazing camouflage abilities.   Abilities   A Yellow Dragon had innate magical abilities, each gained as they grew older. They were immune to fire and heat. They could create silence, 15' radius at will. Three times per day, a Mature Yellow Dragon could use Create or Destroy Water, Dust Devil, Enervation, and Wind Wall. Twice a day, a Mature Yellow Dragon could use Invisibility.   Combat   Yellow Dragons preferred ambush attacks over direct attacks. They were fierce fighters. During combat, they would use spells and their innate abilities to mislead and confuse their opponents. A common ambush tactic was to bury itself at the bottom of a steep, cone-shaped depression it dug in the sand. When prey or an opponent walked into the depression, the Dragon would begin moving its wings below the sand, causing the walls to collapse. The target would be trapped and usually fell right into the Dragon's mouth.   The Yellow Dragon's breath weapon was a high-speed blast of super-heated air and sand. It covered an area of 50ft in length, 40ft in width, and 20ft in height. Brass Dragons were the primary enemy of a Yellow Dragon.

Highly territorial, the only time they tolerated the presence of another Yellow Dragon was for mating. Mates did not live together. A mother raised her offspring but would not protect them from attackers. Offspring separated from their mothers as juveniles.
