Malkadian+Dragons

**Malkadian Dragons**

 * Description** -

Also known as the Fire Wyrms, they are vicious, deceitful, and ruthless. Many Malkadians were tainted by the Darkenss during wars. Those few who did escape the taint are exiled, accepted by neither race.

Their scales have a generally black sheen, though they range in hues of red, brown, and orange. Like Ehlessians, their scales start a pale brown, then darken and harden with time.


 * Combat** -

Because Malkadians are so confident, they seldom pause to appraise an adversary. On spotting a target, they make a snap decision whether to attack, using one of many strategies worked out ahead of time. A Malkadian dragon lands to attack small, weak creatures with its claws and bite rather than obliterating them with its breath weapon, so as not to destroy any treasure they might be carrying. 3/day—darkness (juvenile or older; radius 10 feet per age category)
 * Breath Weapon (Su)**: A Malkadian dragon can choose one type of breath weapon: a cone of fire or line of acid.
 * Locate Object (Sp)**: A juvenile or older Malkadian dragon can use this ability as the spell of the same name, once per day per age category.
 * Other Spell-Like Abilities**: 3/day—suggestion (old or older); 1/day—find the path (ancient or older), discern location (great wyrm).
