Dragon of the Mountain

The Dragon lives on the top of the Mountain on the island of Maris, very near to Rin.

Behaviour
Every morning, the Dragon breathes fire across the sky from the top of the Mountain.

Relationship to Deltoran dragons
The Dragon of the Mountain appears to be the only one of its kind. Its relationship to the dragons of Deltora is unknown, although it shares several traits, including fierce territoriality; it will attack any foreign presence in its airspace, although it is unconcerned with invasions on the ground. It seems similar in appearance to Deltoran dragons. However, it has never been known to speak human language, and has not displayed the level of intelligence characteristic of Deltoran dragons. It has also not shown any magical powers, the ability to change the colour of its underside to blend in with the sky above, or the ability to produce offspring without a mate if the need is dire. It is very rarely seen away from the Mountain.
