Ice and Fire Dragons Mythical Creatures

Beyond dragons, the world is populated with legendary beasts:

• Gorgon - a serpent-haired horror whose gaze turns you to stone; avoid looking directly at it and use its severed head as a weapon.
• Hippogryph - an eagle-lion hybrid you can tame and ride as a faster, lighter flying mount.
• Cyclops - a towering one-eyed giant that guards caves; blinding its eye is key to beating it.
• Cockatrice - a hen-lizard whose stare weakens and can petrify.
• Sea Serpent - a huge ocean predator that lurks in deep water and attacks boats.
• Death Worm - a burrowing desert monster that ambushes from beneath the sand.
• Troll - a big, tough brute found in caves and mountains, dropping weapons and loot.
• Hydra - a multi-headed beast; cut a head and more may grow back.
• Amphithere, Stymphalian Birds, Pixies and other smaller creatures round out the ecosystem, each with their own behavior, drops and dangers.
