Day 9: Crystal
Now this is a very intriguing dragon, I present to you the Crytalvard!
These interesting dragons are very unique, as they are one of the few dragons known to utilise gemstone magic.
At a young age, these dragons are trained to use there specialised sense of smell, to seek out heartstone gemstones. Excavate them, and using a peculiar substance in there saliva to meld the gemstones to their nose horns using there prehensile tongues.
These gemstones will naturally imbed within the keratin, as the dragon develops. Having literal crystals growing out of there horns.
Crystalvards will then use these crystals to enter troll homes and feed on there heart stones energy, a prime part of there diet.
Not much is know beyond this purpose, these dragons being known for an intelligence not yet fully understood with this species, but there must be a reason.
Perhaps these dragons act as guardians of a knowledge known only to dragons.
There bright colours are also striking, used in courtship with others of there kind, especially there feet.
These dragons have been known to have a kind relationship with trolls. As they are dragons often visiting there markets.
All of that changed when the war began.
