#3. LORE
Group of Zaun's scientists found an ancient dragon egg. They studied it, done all sort of observations and found out, that little dragon inside is still alive, so to speak. It was sleeping in a deep deep sleep, waiting for warmth. So, these scientists done what every sane person would do - they tried to hatch it. After several days of heat therapy, little dragon started to move in his egg and after few more days hatched. However, he didn't look like dragon that much. Hatchling didn't have wings, his front limbs were short, while his back limbs were very similar to feet of other two legged animals. He looked more like a humanoid lizard, than a dragon, yet, from the day one, he was able to spit fire and produce super hot mucus, which was very similar to lava. Scientists studied this hatchling and gave him a name - Zaard. They believed, that this could be some kind of sub-species of prehistorical dragon, who later evolved into current version of dragons.
Zaard, while as smart as wild animals can go, is very playful, likes to jump into people, coddle with them, sometimes he even playfully bites his playmates. He is still a baby, after all. Also, he shows certain behaviors toward certain things:
- He like to eat raw meat, including birds, fishes and other animals, but dislikes cooked meat;
- He likes to torn apart vegetables, but don't eat them;
- He is able to communicate with other dragons, yet he prefers human company;
- When scarred or stressed, he runs to humans for comfort;
- He is allergic to coffee and other addictive substances.
Also, being some kind of dragon species, he shares some of their features:
- His skin is very hard and can withstand sword blows;
- He is able to breath fire and spew out super hot mucus;
- He likes hot places and heat;
- He have natural fear of undead;
- He is very territorial.
Zaard does not speak human language and he couldn't never speak it (vocal cord too primitive), yet he is starting to understand common words and their meanings.
