==Holmium 67== Holmium dragons are somewhat small dragons, standing only ten feet at the shoulder on average. Long and lithe, they are one of the few completely wingless dragons. Silvery in color with a yellow tarnish, this dragon looks slightly like a wingless Silver, though their scales are much longer, almost needle-like, giving the dragon a rugged outline. Holmiums are one of the few Metallics that willingly travel the tundras. Due to some quirk of their physiology, when they are chilled they exhibit the ability to manipulate magnetic fields. This ability has proven indispensable, so much so that they are rarely found anywhere there isn't snow for at least part of the year. During winter, Holmiums are the ultimate manipulator of magnetic phenomena. So strong are their abilities that they do not have wings because they do not need them, instead harnessing the magnetic field of the very earth to lift themselves. They can also eliminate their magnetic field entirely, as so not to become the center of a maelstrom of every metallic item in the area, as well as activating it in a specific direction. Areas with several Holmiums often have agreements that they will not use their abilities within a certain distance of any village or city to prevent every iron tool from becoming a deadly projectile. Though their scales are soft, their abilities more than make up for it; as long as they are surrounded by cold they have nothing to fear from any dragon or mortal, save a few of the Radiants. Fortunately for both dragons and mortals, Holmiums are slow to anger and quite willing to work with others, frequently assisting mortal wizards and alchemists if they ask politely. Holmium tarnish powder is frequently sought after as a curiosity by alchemists, wizards and those nobility who take an interest in the unusual. The powder under daylight is yellow, but when placed under special clear glass, becomes pink, orange or red, depending on the glass.
