Description
Dragophants are strange chimeric creatures, they have the overall form of an elephant, but have deep-green scaly dragon hide, large draconic wings, and a mouth full of razor-sharp teeth. Unlike actual dragons, dragophants are herd creatures, and any group of three or more will be a herd with a large bull leading it. Smaller groups of one or two will be rogue males, who use the normal statistics rather than those of a herd bull.
As long as the herd bull is alive, all the other members of the herd gain a +1 to morale, and the bull gains a similar +1 to morale as long as any other member of its herd survives.
Though dragophants can fly they are poor, clumsy fliers. Taking off requires a dragophant to move at least 30 feet in a straight line on the ground to gain enough speed to take flight the following round.
Dragophants have a breath weapon, a 20-foot cloud of steam that billows forth from the creature's trunk once per hour. All dragophants are immune to their own breath weapon and those of other dragophants.
