Book of Dragons

Rockstomper/Moldruffle

Rockstompers have a tradition of burying hidden caches of supplies under the sand, including the belongings of humans, much to their riders' dismay. There's no hiding from this Dragon. Rockstompers can track down anything, including their enemies in the heat of the battle. 

The Rockstomper has a subspecies that was put into the Stoker class called the Moldruffle. Both of their eggs are shaped much like a regular bird's. It has several curved ridges that slope towards the base of the egg. The color of the egg determines the color after the dragon hatches. They look a lot like the Snafflefang in terms of appearance and build. They are talented flyers. These are dragons that actively and effortlessly hunt prey other than fish. Its head is shaped to be like a hunter, rather than a scavenger or fisher. The spikes on its back are unusual since most dragons with spikes have a neat and smooth pattern. They have a random pattern of varying spikes. These spikes can be effective weapons for defensive purposes. They also seem to have talons at the tips of their wings which, Moldruffles, ignite during their special ability, these talons may also be used for an offensive purpose. 

Titan Moldruffles are red in color with blue and red stripes on their wings and blue stripes on their back and tail. They have more spikes on their backs. Titan Rocktompers are fairly similar they are also red but don't have red and blue stripes. Instead, they possess a single grayish stripe down the middle of their back along with blue and purple spot like shapes on their wings. 

These dragons have an aerodynamic build, making them quick and extremely agile hunters. They also have a lot of stamina and are known to travel great distances. They have quite an unusual way to communicate with others of dragons of its kind. Their sharp horns resonate a pure sound when struck against objects and this is used to send a message to its dragonkin. It can also use its horns as a deadly weapon. It has talons at the edges of its wings which it can use as an offensive weapon. 

While both dragons are good trackers Rockstompers are said to have superb tracking skills, including tracking enemies. 

The Moldruffle's signature ability is when they gather fire on the edges of their wings and tail, using their fan-like tail to strengthen the blazing flames. Imagine the terror of seeing a fiery inferno diving at prey with incredible speed and precision! Since they are able to travel great distances, this would mean their ability would be extremely powerful over time as it strengthens the blaze with its fan-like tail. 

Both are extremely catlike in nature. Intelligent and curious, its keen senses are quickly distracted, and it switches its focus from one thing to another. This is their only weakness that is known.
