Tungsten Dragon
Always LG dragon (fire)
The dragon's head is almost insect like, with numerous small horns dotting its face. Its wings look nearly identical to the large sail that rises from its back. Its scales are a dull, flat green.
Breath Weapon (Su): a tungsten dragon has one type of breath weapon, a cone of blasting sand that deals half bludgeoning damage and half fire damage.
Immolation (Su): Once per day a great wyrm tungsten dragon can target up to three creatures within a 30 feet per age category with an immolation attack. The targets immediately burst into flames, taking 6d6 points of fire damage. Additionally, targets catch fire, taking an additional 2d6 points of fire damage each round until the flames are extinguished. A successful Fortitude save halves the damage and prevents the target from catching on fire. The save DC is Charisma - based.
Sand Cloud (Sp): This ability is similar to a fog cloud spell but with swirling sand instead of Fog. These fine grains of sand smother unprotected flames and can even choke protected flames (50% chance). The swirling sand also makes it difficult to cast spells. Casters within a sand cloud must succeed at a Concentration check or the spell is lost (DC 15+ spell level). An old or older tungsten dragon can use this ability twice per day. This ability is the equivalent of a 3rd - level spell.
Spell - Like Abilities: 2/day -- plant growth (ancient or older);
1/day -- discern lies ( young or older), dispell evil (old or older).
Skills: Gather Information, Spellcraft and Survival are considered class skills for Tungsten dragons.
Tungsten dragons dedicate themselves to the cause of goodness, but they occupy most of their attention with the defense and development of their own domains. They deal harshly with intruders, unless the trespassers can convince them that they are acting in the interests of good.
Strategies and Tactics
Tungsten dragons are relentless in the pursuit of good. Although they operate within the bounds of law and good, they use whatever means are available to defeat evil opponents. They believe that good must use any resources and methods available to stop evil from triumphing, as long as no innocents are harmed in the process. They favor magic and breath weapons over melee attacks, preferring to employ spells such as banishment or baleful polymorph to quickly dispatch foes.
Ecology
Tungsten dragons spend most of their time in search of evil intruders to punish and wrongs to right. They band together when needed to mercilessly destroy the blue dragons that share their habitat. The arrogant Tungsten dragons are not fond of neighboring brass dragons, which they consider careless and ill-mannered.
Just as any other dragon, a tungsten dragon can eat almost anything, but has a fondness for desert plants. Take great care to maintain the balance of the local ecology, though.
Tungsten dragons are very family-oriented, providing great care for their young. Upon reaching the juvenile age category, their children can choose to remain with the family or start one of their own.
Environment
Tungsten dragons live in arid deserts and steppes, and occasionally lair in dry plains in the temperate or warmer regions.
Typical Physical Characteristics:
A wyrmling tungsten dragon's scales are deep forest green with brown flecks. As an adult, the flecks disappear and the scales take on a metallic sheen that gleams as the dragon grows. As a tungsten dragon grows into an adult, the scales begin to lose their shine until they become a dull, flat green.
