| Chinese Fireball (Sometimes known as Liondragon) The only oriental dragon has a particularly striking appearance. Scarlet and smooth scaled, it has a fringe of golden spikes around it's snub-snouted face and extremely protuberant eyes. The fire ball gained it's name for the mushroom shaped flame that bursts from it's nostrils when angered. It weighs beetween two to four tons, the female being larger than the male. Eggs are a vivid crimson speckled with gold and the shells are much prized for use in chinese wizardry. The fireball is aggresive but most tolerant with it's own species rather than others. sometimes consenting to share it's territory with up to two others. The fireball will feast on most mammals but it prefers pigs and humans. BACK |
