description: 'Brine dragons are usually blue-green in color, with shiny scales, crests
that help them glide through the water, and sweeping neck frills. They care little
for either good or evil. As they are both opinionated and willing to impose their
sense of order on others, many brine dragons eventually seek to rule over a meticulously
crafted community. These communities are orderly and well-planned, with rigid standards
of courtesy and unchanging laws set down by the dragon themself. A settlement seeded
by a brine dragon can be made of members of almost any ancestry, but the most common
inhabitants are humans, merfolk, tengus, or sahuagin.
Depending on the dragon''s personality, their community members might view their
brine dragon ruler as anything from a benevolent force of order to a fearful tyrant.
Regardless, the typical brine dragon has little patience for kindness or philanthropy,
and the strength and health of their settlement as a whole are of greater concern
than individuals'' well-being. A notable exception to this dispassion rises when
an outside force encroaches on their lands. In these cases, the brine dragon is
quick to step in and aid in the defense of their community.
Although brine dragons enjoy cultivating settlements, they rarely make their lairs
within the city limits, instead preferring to dwell in sea caves or cliffside grottoes
overlooking the coastline. Here they can retreat for privacy as needed, or can accumulate
and display their gathered wealth in a place where they feel safe spreading out
their treasures. Brine dragon hoards often consist of a mix of offerings and taxes
paid by those they rule over and strange discoveries salvaged from sunken ships.
