#swamps and dragons

[shadesofmauve]

So D&D black dragons are supposed to live in swamps, right? Pretty amphibious, live in swamps, lair in...

caves. With a main entrance and a back entrance.

In swamps.

I really have trouble with the idea that there's these dragon-sized caves in an area with such a high water table, y'know? We have to go through miles of swamp to reach this lair, it's not one little boggy place in a mountain valley otherwise filled with nice caves. And the cave has to have two entrances, too? I can believe in dragons, but not this geology.

So... maybe it's not geology. Because a lair in a marshy place with exacting design specifications sounds a lot like a totally natural thing --

A beaver lodge.

So now I have this new image of black dragons industriously gnawing down giant trees to construct their mighty swamp lairs, and I am so much happier.

Your dragons are amazing, I love the artstyle. They all look so cute. How about a swamp or bog dragon?

Thank you so much for enjoying my dragons :D

Vimes needs some rest.

I am Carrot. Is the exhibit on a different continent? I'll still be excited about a good museum exhibit.

Greetings!

A hard journey awaits the adventurers in the dark swamps. Creatures hide in the dark stalking those who trespass in their territory.

Many have tried to live in this place, but they always succumb to madness or worse. As such, many places are abandoned. Or at least they seem to be.

With no other choice than press forward, what sort of horrors will the heroes find in the darkness?

Another dragon egg adopt finished! This one was very fun - I'm trying to learn photoshop however, which is less fun. Some people on other sites have been asking about my process, so I recorded the process of this one ^^ Youtube link here!
