Crypt Dragon

Crypt Dragon is a monster found in the fourth Hero and Monster Collection set, Guardians of Deephall. It was first found in the Second Edition Conversion Kit.

Description

These horrific creatures of legend spew from their cavernous jaws black fire that burns even under water. The most powerful dragons are so terrifying that even the most courageous warriors are sometimes paralyzed with fear in the midst of battle.

While other dragons hoard items for their great value or shining brilliance, crypt dragons are far more interested in items of great magic or fate. These powerful artifacts have been known to carry dreadful curses and terrorize settlements near the tombs and graveyards where these beasts build their hoards.
