"This is a newly developed dragon type,
designed and grown within the Empire's
very own Academy.
A biological weapon with endless
offensive capabilities and nearly infinite
vitality, it shares all the strengths of
bio-engineered creatures.
Only six prototypes were created using
the Bio-reactor, out of which, only five
were actually deployed in combat."
"The whereabouts of the final and sixth
dragonmare are currently unknown.
The various abilities of the dragonmare
far surpass any other armament that
the Empire currently has in use.
While it is flesh and blood,
the dragonmare's body is covered in
a solid armor-like plating that has
remarkable regenerative capabilities."
"They are also capable of generating
viscous balls of mucus that are projected
from the creatures' mouths at extremely
high temperatures.
The mucus is also capable of
denaturing the proteins within other
bio-engineered creatures and have
proven effective against such enemies."
"Aside from those more exotic abilities,
the dragonmares are also capable melee
fighters, using their enormous tails and
claws to render flesh and rip apart
stone and steel just as easily.
The slightly grotesque and misshapen
figures of these dragons is what earned
them their name, which means
'distorted dragons.'"
"It is said that the dragonmares, though
they be vicious and terrible in battle,
lay perfectly still and silent when not in
the midst of action.
Some say that perhaps the dragonmares
are not truly alive.
Seeing the beasts rest, one can
understand where such rumors come
from."
"The Empire has been nearly destroyed
on numerous occasions by dragons,
and a fear and hatred of the beasts has
been embedded into the psyche of
the people.
It is an interesting twist of fate that
the Empire should, in turn, research how
to create such creatures to use them to
combat other dragons.
'Desperate times call for desperate
measures,' the head of the research within
the Academy was once heard saying."
As the text states the Empires use of bio-engineered weapons is highly ironic - yet "desperate times call for desperate measures" and the use of Dragonmares most likely result to a fast rise to power for the New Empire. The dragonmare themselves are immensely powerful and the entire dragonmare squadron is most likely in power and might equivelant to the power of the old empires Grig Orig. At the very least the Dragonmares struck the same amount of fear in the hearts of the Empire's subjects that the immense Grig Orig did.
