description: Although the glistening scales and sleek, fin-like wings on these drakes
  give them an appearance reminiscent of river   sh, they are actually distant relatives
  of the black dragon. While smaller than most drakes, river drakes are more than
  capable of plaguing river travelers and are equally at home above and below the
  water's surface. This flexibility allows them to catch a wide variety of prey, from
  fish and boggards to deer and the occasional ferry passenger.

  description: The river drake spits a ball of caustic mucus up to a range of 50 feet
    that explodes in a 10-foot *burst*. Creatures within the burst take 4d6 acid damage
    (DC 19 basic Reflex save). Those that fail this save also take 1d6 *persistent*
    acid damage and take a –5-foot status penalty to their Speed. This Speed reduction
    ends with the persistent acid damage. The river drake can't use Caustic Mucus
    again for 1d6 rounds.
