Dragons of the East

Red dragons are very evil and breathe fire.

It is very fond of eating opals and pearls and looks favorably upon any mortal giving these. These dragon lives in, and rules all creatures of, the sea. There is also a dragon of treasure whose skin is made of gems and gold. It attracts treasure to its body like a magnet to iron. Its armor class is 25 because of the great number of gems and gold on its body. It has a breath weapon of double strength, shooting distance, and number of times usable as a gold dragon.
Each set of dragons encountered may be of any alignment and be colored white, red, gold, blue, green, or black, but their powers vary solely with their type. There is a 60% chance of finding them in their lair, but they never sleep. Only Hai-Riyo can be subdued.
