Metallic dragon
Metallic dragons were a type of dragon distinguished typically by the color and composition of their scales, that was like that of various metals, hence the name. They were generally good, altruistic, and righteous creatures. Despite their relatively benign nature, metallic dragons were also aggressive when threatened or challenged.[3] They usually worshiped Bahamut, whom they regarded as their king.[2][4]
It was believed by scholars from Candlekeep that all species of metallic dragons evolved from the proto-dragon species of the ferrodraco genus.[5]
Although there were many metallic dragon species, the following are the ones known by sages of Faerûn:
- Gold dragons
- Gold dragons were the most powerful and majestic of the classic metallic dragons. They are wise, lawful good foes of evil and injustice. Gold dragons were very knowledgeable and reclusive. They preferred stone lairs and had a cone of fire as a breath weapon.[6]
- Silver dragons
- Silver dragons were regal, lawful good creatures who often took a humanoid form and lived among humans and elves. Their breath weapon was a cone of freezing cold, and they normally laired in mountains. They were very smart and preferred not to fight unless necessary.[7][8]
- Bronze dragons
- Bronze dragons were inquisitive dragons with a fierce appearance and a fascination for warfare. They would often seek to fight evil, and would join good-aligned armies in a humanoid form. They were lawful good, lived in coastal areas, and had an electrical breath weapon.[9]
- Copper dragons
- Copper dragons were born pranksters, jokesters, and riddlers. They were chaotic good and lived in rocky mountains. Copper dragons had an acid breath weapon but preferred to avoid combat altogether, instead taunting and teasing foes until they left.[10]
- Brass dragons
- Brass dragons were extremely talkative and loved the intense heat of deserts. They often engaged foes and friends alike in hours of long-winded conversation. They avoided combat if possible, but would use their breath weapon, a cone of sleeping gas, to subdue foes if threatened. They were the weakest of the classic metallic dragons, but still chaotic good.[3]
https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Brass_dragon
Brass dragon
Brass dragons were a race of metallic dragon.[6][5][4][1]
Physically, the brass dragon was highly distinctive. From below, its outstretched wings formed a triangular shape, as they were attached to its body all the way to the tip of its tail. The wings were longest at the shoulder, and tapered gently as they reached the tail. Their scales seemed to radiate heat and light. As their name implied, brass dragons tended to have brass-colored scales. Their scales were a dull brown at a young age, becoming more glossy and brass-like in appearance as they aged. The shape of the head was quite unusual, as it included a large, curved plate that extended from the dragon's eyes and cheeks on either side and curved upwards into two points. They had two sharp horns on the chin, which became steadily pointier as the dragon aged. They smelled like metal.[7]
Personality
Considered to be the most gregarious of the true dragons, brass dragons famously, or infamously, loved to talk and would engage friends and foes alike in hours of long-winded conversation. Although many experts thought that brass dragons were the humblest true dragons, their loquacity was in fact a manifestation of draconic hubris, though brass dragons would count humility as one of their great virtues. Brass dragons could not stand to let any intelligent being to miss the benefit of their company and their great conservation because they thought themselves so great at it.[7][8]
Combat
Brass dragons very rarely engaged in combat, preferring to talk rather than fight. If they considered a creature threatening, they would subdue it with their sleeping gas. In the face of true danger, a younger brass dragon would have most likely flown away and hidden in the sand. It would have fought and used its fire breath only as an absolute last resort. Older brass dragons preferred to avoid combat but would fight if they had the tactical advantage[8]
Breath weapon
Brass dragons had two separate breath weapons. The first was a narrow line of fire, and the second was a cone of sleep gas.[6]
Ecology
Brass dragons hunted their prey while flying, mainly consuming antelope, mountain goats and sheep. Only evil brass dragons hunted intelligent creatures. Brass dragons have evolved for living in the desert and therefore can go long periods without water.[9]
Brass dragon eggs were incubated in a nest of open flames. Incubation took approximately 480 days.[10]
History
A stuffed young brass dragon was kept in the Obstacle Course level of Undermountain.[11]
Society
Lairs
Brass dragons were native to arid regions; they shared many similar habitats with blue dragons, which often led to conflict. The brass dragon preferred to dig its lair inside a desert peak or spire. They also preferred to have the bulk of their lairs face eastwards, so that the rising sun would warm the lair for the bulk of the day. A brass dragon's lair was well-constructed and quite extensive, with many twisting corridors and dead ends to confuse and discourage hostile intruders.[7]
Notable Brass Dragons
- Argevar, a lonely inhabitant of the vast desert of Mithardir, the third layer of Arborea who disguised himself as a human to ambush travelers and add their possessions to his hoard of mostly worthless items.[12]
- Ileuthra

https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Bronze_dragon
Bronze dragon
Bronze dragons were a race of metallic dragons. Curious and inquisitive, they possessed a strong sense of justice and did not tolerate any form of cruelty.[7]
While most of its body was a reflective bronze color, the wings were often tipped with green. The dragon had four large horns on each side of their heads, three protruding from each cheek and one from the top of their head, pointing back towards the tail. A large frill ran down the upper part of its neck.[7]
Bronze dragons smelled like sea spray.[7]
A dragon egg could be identified as belonging to a bronze by the gold flecks seen when held in front of an intense white light, though it shared this trait with copper dragons—the former had fewer, bigger spots, while the latter had many tiny spots.[8]
Abilities
These dragons possessed the ability to alter their form, assuming the appearance of any type of animal or humanoid creature they choose. As such, many could have encountered a bronze dragon without ever being the wiser.[7]
Bronze dragons could speak with animals, create food and water, make fog, control water and control weather, and detect thoughts.[4]
Breath Weapon
Bronze dragons had two separate breath weapons. The first was a line of electricity similar to a lightning bolt, and the second was either a cone of gas that affected the minds of creatures caught in it, causing them to flee for a short time,[9] or a cone of repulsion energy which physically pushed enemies away.[1]
Society
They truly enjoyed observing and interacting with smaller creatures, most especially humans. They often went out of their way to help them, such as rescuing humans from a shipwreck or a dangerous foe. In many of these instances, the bronze dragon would transform itself into a human, so that those who it helped never knew who really did the rescuing.[7]
They always sought justice as best they could, and could not abide to see any creature being treated with cruelty of any sort.[7]
They were probably the most social species of dragon, and often swam and played together in groups.[7]
Lair
Bronze dragons were often found along the coastal regions of the world. They liked to dwell along the sea, to make use of their aquatic abilities. Given its exceptional abilities as a swimmer, the entrance to a bronze dragon's lair was quite naturally underwater. The bulk of the lair was above water level.[7]
Diet
Bronze dragons, as with some other dragon breeds, were unable to chew their food. Hence, to aid digestion, they swallowed small stones, pieces of metal, and even coins, which went into a small second stomach like a bird's gizzard. These stomach stones ground down their food and were eventually expelled in waste.[10]
Parenting and development
Bronze dragons mated for life, and took their duties as parents with the utmost seriousness.[7]
A newly-hatched bronze wyrmling appeared yellow with a tinge of green, and the scales gradually shifted to bronze as it matured.[7]
Notable Bronze Dragons
- Felgolos, also known as "The Flying Misfortune"
- Lhammaruntosz, also known as "The Claws of the Coast"
- Nymmurh, also known as "The Wyrm Who Watches"
- Quelsandas
- Runara, the abbess of Dragon's Rest monastery on Stormwreck Isle.[11]
- Umsheryoth
- Zelifarn, a young bronze dragon who took up residence in Deepwater Harbor in the late 15th century DR.[12]
