Man-Dragon

The Man-Dragon is a draconic voidling and a familiar spirit of Lance. Lance conjured it as an experiment during his exile in the swamp lands. The Man-Dragon wanders around the region, where it is the apex predator, and persistent rumors of a "half-dragon man" continue to scare off travelers. The character was designed by Dexter Kronos for "Poison".
==Design==
The Man-Dragon is a draconic skeletal beast, about the size of a human. It has large dragon wings that allow it to fly, a bulky skeleton blackened on some parts, and pink eyes that fade when it is defeated. For some reason, it wears a black mouth scarf.
==Story==
After Lance, the Rogue Ender Mage was banished to the swamp lands, he began to experiment with the essence of the End Crystals, creating unnatural and powerful creatures such as the Man-Dragon, which gradually conquered the region and faded into myth and the unknown. The Man-Dragon grew feral and became the swamp lands' apex predator, slaughtering all within its domain and hunting for blood.
When Kane and Abigail Crysteffor visited the swamp lands to slay Lance in "Poison", their campsite was attacked by the Man-Dragon. The two struggled to defeat it, before it fell to the ground, unmoving. It was later revealed to have survived and recovered in the epilogue to Tales of the Netherbane.
== Skills ==
Like Enderkin, the Man-Dragon can summon Ender Armblades, but it lacks more than basic technique in combat. It is a quick flier and strong enough to lift up a person while airborne. It is subservient to its master, Lance; without him, it has no purpose and roams aimlessly.

==Trivia==
*The Man-Dragon's design was created by Dexter Kronos.
* Curiously, the Man-Dragon shows signs of once having charcoal-colored flesh of some kind, hinting at it potentially being either an Endermen or Normal Skeleton abomination.
*It has been confirmed there are other Man-Dragons, although their status and location is unknown.
*The new character Lt. Purple Reaper uses a near-identical design as the Man-Dragon, leading to speculation he is of the same species.
