Amber dragon

Amber dragons were a lesser species of gem or neutral dragon that lived only in dense forested areas.
==Description==
Ambers were smaller and weaker compared to other species of gem dragon. They had thick, bark-like skin that ranged from shades of dull gray to dark brown. Their eyes were richly colored like their namesake, amber, and they had a horned beak-like prow that was in length. Their teeth were cartilaginous and not well-formed for biting offensively. In addition, their feet ended in sharp scythe-like claws.
==Personality==
Amber dragons were exceptionally intelligent creatures. Compared to all other neutral-aligned dragons, they were perhaps some of the most aloof and solitary.

They also possessed a great innate spellcasting ability, being capable of casting a variety of spells that were common of druids. They could magnetize other creatures with metal armor or weapons, hindering their combat capabilities.
==Combat==
