View source for Chromatic dragon

'''Chromatic dragons''' are true [[dragon]]s, usually of evil-alignment, as opposed to the good-aligned [[metallic dragon]]s. Most chromatic dragons simply seek to quench their endless lust for treasure, food, and bloodshed. The scales of these dragons all match the color given in the name.<ref>{{Cite book/Bestiary|90-109}}</ref>

==Origins==
The evil god [[Dahak]] initially created the metallic dragons to hunt for sport. [[Apsu]] entered the [[Material Plane]] in order to end Dahak's reign of terror. However, [[Tiamat]] saw Dahak as a son and wanted him spared. In a deal to save Dahak, Tiamat healed some of the wounded metallic dragons, creating the original chromatic dragons.<ref name="GM-52">{{Cite book/Gods & Magic|52}}</ref>
