"The dragon has a wide, squat body and appears obese. Extrusion of adipose-rich flesh push out the dragon’s scales, giving it a rough, unkempt look. A spiny frill that doubles the dragon’s height runs from the top of its head to near the beginning of it short, thick tail. The stink of fermenting grain hangs thick in the air."
Jolly and good-natured to an almost ridiculous extreme, Elysian dragons enjoy little more than bacchanalian feats and lust-filled festivals. They drink eat and enjoy themselves to excess. Considered by most other true dragons as irresponsible and overly prolific, Elysian dragons breed at an alarming fast rate (for dragons) and sire more half-dragons than all other planar dragon kinds combined. Elysian dragons receive such criticism as light-hearted jests and offer slurred rebuttals in kind. Although they claim themselves protectors of the tranquil peace that pervades Elysium, Elysian dragons often seem intent only on ensuring they—and those around them—have as many long enjoyable days as possible. From their point of view, happiness and goodness are inexorably linked, and nothing promotes happiness better than inebriation and other physical pleasures. Despite their excellent draconic metabolisms, Elysian dragons tend to overdrink themselves into obesity.
The rare Elysian dragon that doesn’t immediately spend, drink, or eat any new treasure that might otherwise go into its hoard occasionally amasses a small but respectable collection of treasures… until the next time it hosts a party. Elysian dragons tend to lair in or near towns, shrinking themselves when necessary in order to fit into buildings.
If attacked or otherwise pressed into combat, an Elysian dragon always seems offended that someone would attempt to ruin its party. When it finally decides to defend itself, the Elysian dragon attempts to end a combat as quickly as possible—and with as little bloodshed—as possible. Unbreakably upbeat, an Elysian dragon in combat makes jokes and speaks conversationally with its opponents, usually in an attempt to bring them around to its side but occasionally merely out of drunkenness.
