Firebellies
A type of fire breathing reptile that preys on anything that enters it's vicinity.
Medium - Reptilian - Quadruped
Information
Bruteish reptiles that resemble oversized lizards with long tails, sharp teeth and a large pot belly. They are often shades of red, black and orange. Their long tails end in a gaseous orb that glows brightly that they use for illumination in the dark. They are known for breathing fire onto their prey. Their mouths, lips and internals are coated in a substance that protects them from their own flames. Their bodies are covered in hard heat resistant scales that allow them to survive even the harshest environments.
Behavior
Tactical
Firebellies are devious and cunning hunters. They are not shy in which prey they will select and will attack travelers and their mounts without pause. They typically lie in wait in rocky or volcanic areas, striking only when their prey is within range. They are known to open their attacks with a blast of fire and it is believed that they do this because they prefer their food cooked. They will then try to bite and consume their prey, only “cooking” them more if they continue to struggle.
Social
Firebellies, while not pack creatures, are known to congregate and hunt somewhat cooperatively. They do however, infight often as a means of asserting dominance and selecting mates. Firebellies rarely kill each other during these fights and will not consume other firebellies. In fact, they will often decorate their dens with the bones and scales of their dead kin.
