Brass Dragon
In the vast, sun-scorched deserts, where the wind whispers secrets and the sand conceals treasures, there roams the magnificent brass dragon. These dragons are not like their distant kin, brooding and secretive. Oh no, the brass dragons are chatterboxes, brimming with curiosity and craving conversation. With scales like burnished armor and eyes that simmer like molten metal, they are creatures of hot, dry climates and constant camaraderie.
Boldly Talkative, Indeed!
If you ever cross paths with a brass dragon, prepare to talk! These creatures can engage in conversations with thousands of beings throughout their long lives, amassing a treasure trove of information. And they’ll share it too—for a price. Try to leave without a word, and the brass dragon may follow you, its thirst for small talk unquenched. Should you attempt to flee by magic or force, you may find yourself pinned down by massive claws or buried in sand, forced to engage in conversation until the dragon’s curiosity is satisfied.
They’re clever creatures, these brass dragons, trusting but not gullible. Try to manipulate them, and they’ll play the game right back, enjoying the bout of trickery as though it’s a sport.
Treasures Most Prized
What does a talking-loving dragon hoard? Why, things to talk to, of course! Intelligent telepathic weapons, magic lamps with djinn bound inside—these are the gems in a brass dragon’s collection. They hide their hoards in sand or secret places, never forgetting their locations. Stumble upon a chest in an oasis or a cache in a desert ruin, and you might have found a brass dragon’s prized possessions.
A Lair Like No Other
Picture a desert lair, a blend of ruin, canyon, or cave, with ceiling holes to welcome the sun. That’s a brass dragon’s home, a sanctuary for metallic dragons that stand as protectors, guardians, and keepers of wisdom.
Noble, Solitary, and Ever-Memorable
Metallic dragons, with their long memories and curious minds, roam the lands disguised as humanoids or beasts, learning, collecting, and preserving. They protect others from dangerous magic and sometimes secret away evil artifacts. You can persuade them, bribe them, but never underestimate them. They remember, they watch, and they know the lineage of those they encounter.
Among the great metallic dragons stands Bahamut, the Platinum Dragon, dwelling in the Seven Heavens and wandering the Material Plane as an unassuming human male. With seven golden canaries—ancient gold dragons in disguise—he traverses the land, a lesser god with immense power.
The Majesty of True Dragons
Dragons are the winged reptiles of ancient lineage, fearsome power, predatory cunning, and insatiable greed. They pass through life, growing from mere wyrmlings to ancient titans that can live for over a millennium. In that time, they gather wealth beyond imagination, and their power becomes unrivaled.
But among dragons, there is a division: chromatic and metallic. While the black, blue, green, red, and white dragons are selfish and evil, the brass, bronze, copper, gold, and silver dragons are noble, good, and respected by the wise.
In the world of dragons, the brass ones stand apart, lively and engaging, seeking not just wealth but knowledge, connection, and the joy of an endless conversation. And should you ever meet one, be prepared to talk, for a brass dragon’s thirst for conversation is as endless as the desert sands.
