Dragon

Dragons are rare, large winged creatures. Powerful hind limbs, long tails and broad membrane wings allow launches from open ledges and soaring above valleys. They occupy extensive feeding territories, and travelers take special care near nesting grounds.

A dragon shape does not establish ancestry: a powerful mage can take that form too. The Tomb Master is an individual, not a model for all dragons. A civilization or common language of intelligent dragons has not been established; observing a creature is not proof of a new people.
