Monster: White Dragon

Monster: White Dragon

Dragons are iconic monsters of fantasy, and I'm sure that they are one of the first things that comes up in peoples' minds when they hear "fantasy". Sometimes they are just flying reptilian beasts, sometimes they are sentient and cunning. For more information about dragons, one can read GURPS Dragons. Dragons in Dungeons and Dragons are divided into several categories: chromatic, metallic, gem, lung, ferrous, planar, etc. White dragons are considered to be the weakest of the evil chromatic dragons. They aren't very bright (when they are young, at least), but they are strong nonetheless. KYOS makes them deal ridiculous damage with their natural weapons and have huge HP. The racial template is provided only for the adult age category.
