They are native to the Bleak Eternity of Gehenna, an infinite plane of volcanic earthbergs and infernal lava. A pyroclastic dragon is solidly built and powerfully mus- cled, conveying a sense of immovability. Its scales resemble fractured obsidian and glowing magma, forming a mottled pattern of reds, oranges, blacks, and grays over its entire body. Its large wings seem almost to be made of ash, but despite their flimsy appearance they are quite capable of bearing the dragon’s great weight aloft. Pyroclastic dragons enjoy swimming through magma, but they make their lairs in caves carved out of volcanic rock. When they venture to the Material Plane, they live only in volcanic regions. These dragons enjoy the taste of meat but can also subsist on a purely mineral diet.
