[366 Days of Monsters] Day 113/366 - Desert Drake

Added 2020-05-06 17:25:42 +0000 UTC

Found primarily in Desolation of Ditimaya, The Obsidian Plain, and The Wither, desert drakes are the much more aggressive and animalistic cousins of the Great Chromatics. Content to do nothing more than hunt, sleep, and procreate, these dragons are the bane of desert inhabitants throughout Central Omeria.

Fortunately, in the Desolation, desert drakes are actively hunted by the Ghosts of the Leash. Their sandy hides are used to line and camouflage Ghost armor, evovehicles, and fortresses, giving ghosts their "invisible" quality.

Meanwhile, The Wither lacks active drake-hunters. Thus, the prolific dragons are a considerable nuisance for Deadrunners, sand-walkers, and other brave humanoids who dare to enter The Wither.

Collecting Desert Drake Hides. A dead desert drake's hide can be removed with a successful DC 17 Strength check using proficiency in leatherworker's tools. A full desert drake hide can be turned into three suits of hide armor that offer the same Sand Camouflage properties the drake possessed. It takes one week of downtime for a creature with proficiency in leatherworker's tools to craft desert drake hide armor. Desert drake hide armor sells for 100 gp per suit in most markets in Central Omeria.
