Dragonsnakes are found only deep in large swamps and marshes on all three continents.
The female dragonsnake lays 2-12 eggs every 3 years. The hatchlings devour each other in a nest war. Typically only 2-3 survive and leave the nest.
The blood of the dragonsnake is dark green, smells terrible and is a valuable alchemical component.
