Characteristics
Green dragons are quadrupedal and wingless, their underbellies an orange-brown shade. Like dragons in most other tales, green dragons are powerful, boasting impressive strength and stamina, as well as the ability to breath fire. A green dragon plays an important role in the story of the first game as a boss guarding the princess under the orders of the Dragonlord.
