The innkeeper comes around the side of the stable with two creatures that look like semi-feathered dragons.
Dreckos are distant relatives of dragons, but they have become very docile. They appear as reptiles standing upright on two long, spindly, but strong talons. A feathered mane trails from the tops of their heads to a large tuft at the tip of their tails. Their bellies are feathered as well. They have large dragon-like wings, but they are too heavy to fly. In addition, they have two vestigial forearms ending in sharp claws, not unlike the Utahraptors of prehistory.
[edit] Combat
In the Wild, Dreckos are prone to run away from humanoids rather than fight them, so a Drecko in combat is usually fighting in self-defense. However, if they are instigated into attacking, they will generally charge in and claw foes with their large talons.
