Hans said...: Marcelo: Thanks for asking. Musky Swamp Dragons are widely known as a pest in the swamplands, due to their high intake of valuable Hinter Bark. This fellow was caught in a "musk trap" by a middle aged Montor Dwarf, and has been domesticated to move timber with his mature jaw tusks. However, that is not how he lost his right "paw". Musky Swamp Dragons have very unique "pedal Claws" containing Mixdroliam, used by Nolan Priests to prepare their warriors before Valhalla. This dragon was found limping!; 4:37 AM
