'''Draconians''' are the mythical half-dragon inhabitants of the [[Realm of Zot]]. Each draconian has a colour, and some have occupations as well; the different colors determine their [[draconian breath attack]]s and resistances, while the occupations determine their equipment, skills, and spells. Fortunately, they are all [[cold-blooded]] creatures and will be [[slow]]ed by weapons of [[freezing]] (unless [[cold resistance|cold resistant]]).

==Common Draconians==
{{flavour|A scale-covered humanoid with a reptilian tail and small wings.}}
*{{monsterlink|Black draconian}} - Flight-capable draconians that breathe highly-damaging bursts of [[electricity]].
*{{monsterlink|Green draconian}} - [[Poison]]ous draconians that have stinger tails and can breathe [[cloud]]s of poison.
*{{monsterlink|Purple draconian}} - Occult draconians that are quite resistant to magic and breathe blasts of irresistible, enchantment-stripping energy.
*{{monsterlink|Red draconian}} - [[Fire|Fiery]] draconians that spew blasts of fire that leave behind clouds of flames.
*{{monsterlink|White draconian}} - Frosty draconians with [[AC]]-piercing [[cold]] breath. Their icy nature negates the side-effects of their cold-blooded physiology.
*{{monsterlink|Yellow draconian}} - Draconians that will corrode your equipment with their [[acid]] breath and bite.

==Classed Draconians==
*{{monsterlink|Draconian annihilator}} - [[Conjurations]] masters capable of causing devastation at range.
*{{monsterlink|Draconian knight}} - Skilled with both weapons and spells, draconian knights are competent opponents.
*{{monsterlink|Draconian monk}} - These [[Unarmed Combat]] specialists strike quickly and hard in melee.
*{{monsterlink|Draconian scorcher}} - Pyromaniac casters with access to both [[fire]] and [[damnation]].
*{{monsterlink|Draconian shifter}} - [[Translocations]] experts who blink both themselves and their allies around a lot. They can also shut down your Translocations.
*{{monsterlink|Draconian stormcaller}} - Warrior-priests of [[Qazlal]] who call down storms upon their foes while calling up hordes of [[list of dragons|drakes]].

==Rare Draconians==
These draconian base types can only be found in pre-defined [[vault]]s.

*{{Brown|d}} [[File:Draconian (monster).png]] '''[[Draconian (monster)|Draconian]]''' - Immature, weak draconians with no breath attack.
*{{monsterlink|Grey draconian}} - These draconians lack breath weapons but have more AC, hit harder, and do not drown.
*{{monsterlink|Pale draconian}} - Draconians that breathe jets of [[steam]], which don't do much damage but block line of sight.

Occasionally, vaults will contain classed draconians that have a different base type than usual - for example, red draconian knights.

===Unique draconians===
*{{monsterlink|Bai Suzhen}} - An odd, watery draconian from a distant land. Her skill in battle and ability to [[Summon Hydra]]s are dangerous enough, but wounding her will force her to unleash her true form...
*{{monsterlink|Tiamat}} - Found only in [[the Realm of Zot]], Tiamat is a brutally powerful opponent. She changes her colour randomly and wears the powerful [[dragonskin cloak]], giving her a wide range of resistances. She always travels with a large entourage of lesser draconians.

==Removed draconians==
*{{monsterlink|Mottled draconian}} - Draconians that spat gouts of [[Sticky Flame]], setting their foes ablaze.
*{{monsterlink|Draconian zealot}} - Servants of a dark god that could summon demons, raise the dead, and hurl hellfire.

==History==
{{CBA|0.34|classed draconians will have extra 20 Will, but purple draconians will have 120 instead of 140 Will.}}
*Prior to [[0.28]], classed draconians could randomly spawn with varying colours.
*Mottled draconians and draconian zealots were removed in [[0.20]]. This version also introduced draconian stormcallers by merging zealots with the old draconian callers.
*Prior to [[0.17]], grey and pale draconians could naturally spawn in [[Zot]].
