Hydra

A fire hydra.

Hydras are three-headed quadruped reptiles that inhabit areas with extreme temperatures, such as the Crystal Desert and the Deldrimor Front. Some are attuned to the usage of fire, ice, or lightning magic, while others channel the Ley energy. They are powerful foes, and have been the death of many unobservant adventurers over the centuries.

In the past, hydras were also seen in the burnt lands of Ascalon as well as the Ring of Fire islands.
