Bronze Dragon Good

Bronze dragons lair near fresh or salt water, and near settlements of humans and demi-humans. They are fond of treasure, but only seek it from evil sources. Bronze dragons dislike killing, though they are fascinated by war and enjoy defeating evil creatures. They are very curious about humans and demi-humans.

They prefer attacking creatures smaller than themselves with tail, teeth and claws, reserving spells for intelligent opponents. Bronze dragons can breathe a cloud of fear gas that repulses those it touches, and a bolt of lightning.
