Kushala Daora

A metal plated dragon known as the tempest of wind. It is said that if Kushala Daora is poisoned, its wind abilities decrease. Eyewitnesses report violent storms alongside the dragon, and its wide range means towns may be attacked.
An Elder Dragon with steel scales that lives in places like the Jungle and the Snowy Mountains. It is said to control the wind, raising storms in the Jungle and blizzards in the Snowy Mountains. The armor of wind it wears is an impregnable defense, and even getting close to it is hard.
