A Chromatic Dragon is a variety of dragon in the Dungeons & Dragons universe. They are the evil-aligned counterparts to the metallic dragons. The 4th Editon Draconomicon raised the browns, grays, and purples to chromatic dragon status. The evil and greedy chromatic dragons lurk in the dim dungeons and remote lairs guarding fabulous hoards of stolen treasure. From the savage white dragon to the mighty red dragon, the breath of a chromatic dragon brings nothing but death and destruction to those adventurers who seek to claim their gold.
