The Thorn Dragon is rarely encountered, as it typically makes its home in burned forests where few tread, and is quite skilled at mimicking the dead trees it surrounds itself with. By the time it is ready to show itself, it may be too late for those who’ve seen it to escape!

History
The Thorn Dragon is possibly descended from wyverns, as they share the same body type: forelegs that have evolved into wings, rather than evolving them as separate limbs. This dragon’s coloration and spiny, jagged appearance help it to camouflage itself among the dead and burned trees in the ancient forests where it resides. Humans typically avoid such areas, which is fortunate for them since it means they are less likely to encounter this fearsome dragon!
