In this thread we improve that ancient dragon race by granting it features found in other animal kinds

I was thinking improbably large crocodile sized, like image related, for a low magic setting, maybe for a modern cryptid or chtorr style scenario.

Actually, I was thinking the twist would be that they reproduce prodigiously, and most individuals would be axolotl sized, defended by their electrical shock abilities. If they survive to adulthood (adults eat them if they can), they grow in intelligence as well. By the time they hit 8+ meters, they start to be as smart as apes.

combine these two and you got yourself a real horror.

I'd play that game.

Their neck muscles are capable of producing a snapping speed equivalent to a pistol shrimp's punch. Complete with creating a shockwave from breaking the sound barrier, what doesn't get hit by the jaw is stunned from the sudden force.

Frog-like tongue that if severed can regenerate like a gecko's tail, and if you try to capture a dragon, it sheds it's skin like a spiny mouse to get free

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's amore;
When you're struck by a club in a South Auckland pub, that's a Maori;
When you swim in a creek and an eel bites your cheek, THAAAAAAAAAT'S A MORAY!

Dragon Ball Z!

Wings have developed into praying mantis-like strikers. Maybe it could also be poisonous like a komodo dragon.

Brilliant. Even sang along.

Is that Bailey Jay?

Duck-billed dargons?

Not even close

Explosive. Corkscrew. Penises.

Comet moth's unbeliavable aerodynamics/hyper high flight speed, perhaps? Most dragons looks so wonky when they are flying.

Black Dragon+Alligator+Komodo Dragon

Pretty much how they always operate except they don't have the ability to fly, instead they grow a hardened layer of bone on top of their scales that are desolved and grown anew by their own acid.

Their mouths are havens for various diseases but, ironically enough, their blood when synthesized can cure nearly any sort of poison or illness

Dragon+Cheetahs

Loose the wings and fly by running faast.

If we want more endurance to them then mix them with wolves instead (since they are the only predator species on land that can keep up with human endurance).

>Mantis shrimp-like raptorial claws
>Extra long appendages derived from wings bludgeon and/or pierce anything within 10 feet.

That's the kind of things that nightmares are made of.

Dragons with the ability to turn their stomachs inside out like tiger sharks. Be a great evolutionary trait to develop when farmers start leaving poisonous sheep as bait.
Slow down there Satan, you completely forgot your demonic trips.
>Loose the wings and fly by running faast.
Thats a wendigo thing. Also African painted dogs and Hyenas both shit on wolf endurance. The only thing that really stops them is the fact that africa is really fucking hot.

Make them scream constantly because nothing is funnier than the doppler effect inducing fear.

Cordyceps Dragons. Several variants of cordyceps dragons, each with their own specific prey. Some could infect goblins, others tarrasques, a few for the elves, maybe even a type for other dragons.

Instead of dragons, herds of god elephants who oversee the world. The elephant's matrons are chroniclers who remember all the world's history through dreaming, and can judge any person by looking them in the eyes.

Their wings are like strong arms with three fingers formed into claws. Depending on the species, they can be used for holding prey, running or climbing.

>Elemental Dragons
Gotta say I really like how Dragon's Dogma/ Online did it. The electric dragon is eel/fish-based and it's atrophied wings have been repurposed into generting the electrical charge.
Though fuck Mr. "spheres that explode to spawn spheres that explode to spawn spheres that explode" holy dragon.

Like and alligator, they never stop growing. This is a problem as they need more and more food as they reach mountainous proportions.

Like a shark, they can smell blood from miles away and can see the electrical impulses sent by the heart. They can see your heart beat.

Like most territorial animals, two dragons will often get into skirmishes with each other for rights to food sources or mating grounds. While these are not fatal to either dragon, any person caught near by is liable to get seriously hurt or killed.

Like a parasitic wasp on /d/, dragons will lay their egg in a host (humanoid small size or larger) that will slowly grow and live off the host until hatching. The hatching will then eat portions of the host in ways to keep them alive the longest before bursting from the host, mature enough to fly off.

Nigga hwat.

MUH SIDES, WHERE ARE THEY.

>Be a great evolutionary trait to develop when farmers start leaving poisonous sheep as bait.
I understood that reference

Looking at OP's pic, I would have thought it would go:

>Medusa dragon

Yeah... Ima need sauce on that.
Lets get some protofeathers on those motherfuckers. Not functional, but it would look cool.

Holy shit really? Fooled me.

dragons with reinforced interlocking vertebra to protect them from other dragons attacking them from above.

Moray eels a cute.

Boom, the perfect natural weapon.

Well its not like they need it.

Those jaws are crazy strong.

Kinda got me thinking about cybernetically augmented dragons. But that's deviating from the thread subject a bit.

Then again, no more than shemale pornstars...
Oooh, super functional!

Dragons are perfect already. Fuck off and don't touch my dragons.

Vanilla is okay but sometimes it's cool to try new things

You're what's wrong with mankind.

Fuck off degenerate.
Humans are awful and could use a lot of improvement. Dragons are perfect, sexy, magic lizards.

Hyena's are more closely related to cats than dogs.

Their society is also quite interesting.

So is their vestigal penis birthing.

I've seen this before somewhere

Actually I realized that my post may be construed as such immediately after posting. Rest assured I find the fetish disgusting as shit and have kicked a vore-fag from my group for being a vore-fag.

Eating in the manner of a snake was one of the first things I thought of when I saw the OP and I'm not vorefag either.

Just seemed like something a dragon would be able to do.

There's a certain amount of horror to walking through some thick woods and stumbling upon a twenty-foot lizard laying in some brambles with half a buffalo sticking out of it's mouth.
I'm not afraid of snakes and in fact love them, but I always get a little uneasy around a snake with half an animal in it. Like it's eye lolls around and lands on you while it pulls it's prey deeper into it's gullet.

I know it's pretty much harmless in it's state but it somehow gives off a bigger "stay away" vibe than when it's just slithering around.

Out of all the parapheliac players I have gamed with, Vorarephilia is generally not the worst.

Most of them can RP pretty good, and it's way less cringy to fight a giant snake or devourer etc, than it is to fight a lolicon or shotacon wearing a diaper.

like I mean, what the fuck, keep that shit at home, and by at home I mean, I realize they're probably at home because we play online, but fuck, keep it in your head.

Fuck.

I'd take a Swallow Whole or Engulf attack over that shit any day.

Paraphelia should generally not be a gaming thing, but Murderfaggotry is basically gaming anyways, until it involves anything explicitly sexual, it gets a pass.

My nigga

Quick little beasties that grow to be 9 feet in length at their largest. They live in coniferous forests, preferring mountain sides. They fill the same ecological niche as a puma, acting as the apex predator of the area. They are vicious, feral, territorial, and always hungry. Basically they would be super puma/wolverine forest predators that zip up out of the bushes, rear up and swat you down before they start RIP'N 'N TEAR'N.

An adult one of these guys.

>chestburster dragons that can grow to the size of mountains

the issue with the reinforced spine (from the hero shrew) is that it only really bends laterally.

So, a psuedodragon - poison

>Like and alligator, they never stop growing. This is a problem as they need more and more food as they reach mountainous proportions.
Always kinda assumed this one

Never thought of adding anything to them to make them even more perfect?
>Dragons are perfect, sexy, magic lizards.
Or maybe more sexy?

Well the draconomicon does have handful of feats that gives the dragon the swallow whole ability

Probably because it takes more than a bit of creativity to get off on whatever their specific version of the kink is

That's just asking for vore.
Ta-da.

Plus, a lot of them tend to know stuff about common vore predators, even if said animals don't act naturally for vore stuff. One of them I played with had the "lair" of a giant alligator littered with corpses floating in the water, since apparently gators don't eat their kills right away for some reason.
Hell, even if they do fluff PC/NPC deaths with a semi-graphic description of being eaten whole, I'd take that slight magical realm over some warlord wearing a well-described diaper "because he can" or a DM who describes piles of shit around a monster's lair.

>high resistance to cold, heat, pressure, dehydration, radiation, toxins and spess
>eggs are 1d20s, and hatch at 14 days
>eggs hatch an adult

All excellent ideas. t. vorefag boogeyman :^)

I've heard it as "When an eel bites your thigh and you cry and you cry, that's a moray!"
>When it's hard plate you've struck while fighting a canuck, that's armor, eh!

Dragon's don't actually bread fire/plasma of a certain characteristic.

But what they do (in the case of fire) is spraying a 'liquid' that ignites upon contact with oxygen. And work more similar to napalm in its effects.

I'd always gone with "when you're down in the sea, and there's jaws on your knee, that's a moray!" because most morays are marine.
I like the idea of eel-dragons with a layer of (potentially toxic) mucus over their scales.

It's from Monster hunter called a Ludroth. It has a sponge on it's back that lets it do that, plus there's a variant that let's it absorb poison.

All I can think of is a dragon covered in absurdly fluffy fur/feathers. A giant cottonball of a dragon.
They who enter the fluff... never return.

Best part?

Their penises detach after sex, only to regrow proportionally to the amount of males around in order to be very competitive.

>All I can think of is a dragon covered in absurdly fluffy fur/feathers.
Granted.

It's been done

How is that somehow MORE terrifying than the old form of T-Rex

That doesn't look like a dragon

So they reproduce by spores and erupt out of infected specimens and devour specimens around it?
It sounds kind of like Alien but with a bigger focus on the eating part. I like it though.

>draw a pink cat
>call it a dragon

hes actually pretty close. he has a dick too

How autistic do you need to be to think that's a dragon.
