Colddrakes are dangerous creatures living in the Pelagirs. They live in a group, called a clutch, and are ruled by a queen drake. A queen is described as: "Less like a lizard, and more like a snake with short, stubby legs... From nose to tail it was easily as long as six carts placed end-to-end. Its equine head was the size of a wine barrel; it had row upon row of silvery needle-sharp spines along its crest and down its back, and more spines formed a frill around its neck. It snarled silently, baring teeth as long as Vanyel's hand, and white and sharp as icicles. Its wickedly curved claws had torn the earth around it... Those claws were longer than his hand, and as sharp as the teeth. Huge, deep-purple eyes like perfect cabochon amethysts..." (Magic's Pawn)Despite its considerable physical

(Magic's Pawn)Despite its considerable physical attributes, the colddrake's primary weapon is its power to hypnotize its prey, enthralling creatures with its mesmerizing stare. While held by a colddrake's gaze, its victims can be compelled to walk right up to the drake to be eaten. While the queen may hunt alone, the rest of the clutch tends to hunt in a pack.
