Shades of Battler, Animated (467), DragonBones (260)

There is nothing more baffling to the scientists of Dragon Peak than the anatomy of the infamous, distant-relative to dragons, twin-headed drake.

While it is baffling how one body can channel two different forces simultaneously, especially seen in the aptly named 'Frostblaze' variety, what most sparks controversial 'discussion' is how an entity with two distinct brains can function so efficiently as one.

A fearsome lizard indeed, while known to bicker with itself from time to time much like those who study it; the beast's co-ordination is unparalleled when it truly matters.

Many have claimed for there to be some kind of telepathic link between the two heads, yet evidence towards such mental-deriven powers has yet to be identified within this species. Not just that but as experiments have shown, having a second voice in your head rarely leads to cohesive action. Rather it just leads to further complaints and arguments.

So what could be the answer?

Perhaps the only way to find that answer would be through detailed autopsy of the dual brains of the Twindrake itself. An accomplishment rarely achieved as felling such a beast of this kind is never easy.

Many underestimate the threat a mere slime can pose. A mistake they soon learn when gasping for air with what's basically a sentient blob of glue latched to their face, sealing all airways.

Those with a more acidic touch pose yet further dangers as judging the acidity of liquid ooze is a easy said than done. Not unless you are willing to plunge your hand within to find out.

This is where the grime comes in. A tough variant of slime to deal with which openly declares its deathly acidic touch to those around, bones of its last victim floating inside a clear giver-away.

Many upon seeing such a creature will opt to leave it alone, an act beneficial to both them and the grime. For grimes are actually very weak, their fragile cores being all that holds them together. But that is not to say they can't splash volatile acid onto would be attackers.

The skulls they 'wear', obtained from sleeping or previously deceased victims, both help protect their core and serve as a sign of danger to would be attackers.

Legends speak of weapons which upon being passed down from warrior to warrior slaying many great foes across the generations, that said weapon may come to develop a will of its own.

Influenced by the hands that wielded them and the blood of the foes which tainted them, each blade forms a unique will of its own.

Perhaps the will of a holy demon slayer shall form from the hands of faithful paladins, slaying monstrous beings in the name of justice. But should their will weaken, should the will of the demonic beasts they slay be stronger than that of their own, demonic taint left impurified, a twisted will of death and destruction may form instead.

Whilst no more than legend, the tales of such will infused weapons turning on their masters stand as a testament towards the importance of treating one's blade with the upmost of care.
