Stone Dragon
The namesake. Launches only from ledges, loves canyons and quarries; sitting still it is hard to tell from a boulder.
Bestiary
Dragons and adversaries
120 dragons in 15 families, 6 special dragons, plus the monsters of Gorevath’s hordes and the colossi. Knowing them gives you the edge.
(Disclaimer: our graphics have been edited with AI because we don’t have a graphic artist on the team yet. We hope to change that in the future.)
The dragon families
Every dragon belongs to one of 15 families – from rock to weather. Wild dragons are struck by madness. Once you catch them, the Guild of Dragon Healers cures them of it. Tap a family to see its dragons.
