Dragon Opossum

Classification: Dragon (Small) 
== Habitat: ==
Mostly wilderness, though may venture into cities.
== Characteristics ==
* Consumes alchemical ingredients, producing venom that has an effect based off of consumed ingredients akin to a potion containing said ingredients. Any produced effect is in addition to nausea and temporary aversion to water, which are always present. 
* Seeks out ingredients to consume that would cause the most harm to a victim of the venom or disorient the victim enough for the dragon opossum to escape. The venom is delivered through bites. 
* When exposed to threats, they may emit a low-pitched, gargled scream, opening their mouths wide to show their sharp teeth in an attempt to intimidate the threat, then dart into whatever hiding place is closest, or collapse and play dead. Use of venom is used as a last resort when most threatened. 
* Like snakes, dragon opossum joeys have poor control over how much venom they release in one bite. Therefore, a joey’s bite is far more potent and dangerous than an adult’s, but they cannot use their venom again until they produce more after two days. Adult dragon opossums produce more venom after only one day. 
* They naturally have a foul stench. 
* Excellent sense of smell but poor eyesight. 
* Are likely to wander into the homes of alchemists or research facilities in search of ingredients to eat. 
* A nest is likely to be situated near a source of alchemy ingredients. 
* Stomachs have a lining that protects them from the chemical reactions occurring within, making them ideal for storing volatile materials. 
* Make for awful pets. They smell bad and will destroy pretty much anything they get their teeth / venom / paws on. 
== Strengths ==
* Variable venom produced from alchemical ingredients. 
* Joeys’ bites are more dangerous than adults’. 
* Excellent sense of smell. 
* Very strong stomach. 
== Weaknesses ==
* Cowardly 
* Poor eyesight 
* Joeys expend all of their venom in one bite.
