Drakeling

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Drakelings are a humanoid species of reptile in the game ADOM who have the ability to spit acid and are skilled with musical instruments. They have blue or green scales, speak with a hissing accent and normally wear few clothes (besides weapons and armor). They are deadly shots with a weapon unique to their race, the drakish scurgar.

The origins of the Drakeling race are unknown. They showed up recently in the ADOM timeline and quickly spread throughout the continent. Sages believe they have been in some kind of hibernation that ended a few years ago.

Drakelings, being cold-blooded, are uniquely susceptible to the effects of heat and cold. Heat causes their metabolisms to accelerate, increasing their speed; likewise, cold causes them to slow down.
