Rage Drake (CR 14)

Rage Drake
Neutral - Large - Magical Beast
Drakes are reptilian beasts that compete in the wild against wolves, bears, and other modest predators. They are omnivores when required (although they prefer meat) and their slow, efficient metabolisms mean an amazing number of them can live in a given area.

An attack by a pack of Rage Drakes is a serious threat, even to a town garrison, and must be faced firmly. It is common to see permanent bounties posted for Rage Drakes, so that all travelers in the wild will be rewarded for thinning them out. It is a dangerous bounty to collect.

Large, dangerous creatures that are intimidating to face even for seasoned warriors, Rage Drakes are often mistaken as small dragons by the uneducated. Given the ferocity of their pack attacks, perhaps such mistakes are justifiable. Rage Drakes are hardy and adapt readily to harsh conditions, and will flourish almost anywhere if given the time to prey and browse efficiently. Rage Drakes are very territorial, and will viciously attack all creatures they see as challenges to their territorial range.
