| Description | At birth, all dragons look like large, pink worms. At maturity, tungsten dragons grow to be antlered wolf-headed serpents with falcon wings. They get to be about 100 feet long, and they have glossy silver and black scales. |
| Procreation | Dragons mate with each other only. Without intense supernatural interference, half-dragons are an impossibility. Dragons lay one to three eggs at a time. Upon hatching, a dragon immediately begins absorbing background energies. All dragon eggs are filled with pure, liquid draconic energy, which sustains the baby dragon upon hatching. |
| Esoterica | Tungsten dragons accumulate determination resonance and Damaskian power in great quantities. Shebv heya, bestial aether, viridian aether, greenlight aether, white tiger aether, rubedian aether, mystery, the gates, muscle, flesh, and blood are all common. Divine energies are not unheard of. Other powers vary. |
| Special Powers | Dragons gain new powers as they accumulate more energies. At each stage of growth, they gain a new ability, usually culminating with the twelfth ability when they accumulate . The usual progression of powers is as follows:
All dragons accumulate energies by absorbing them naturally from the area around them. As such, they must carefully cultivate their lairs to provide the right kinds of energies, hence they hoard appropriate objects. Other common powers include instill hunting skill, arrow rain, greater trap, and kill target. |
| Alternate Forms | Tungsten dragons sometimes take the form of a cocidian. |
| Weaknesses | Bestial aether can be turned against them. |
| Subspecies | Wulfram dragons have accumulated more determination resonance than others, and they become singly obsessed with a single kind of prey, or sometimes one single prey, for the rest of their lives. They gain special powers relating to that prey until it is caught, and then they quietly die. |
| Culture | Tungsten dragons lay their eggs in quiet spots in the deep tropical forests. One parent raises the young as part of the pack, which is led by the greatest hunter amongst them. They hunt often, and they form pack alliances with other locals to build their hoards. As they age, as their skills decrease, they retire and are served by the younger dragons. |
