==Zinc Dragons==
A rare, thought extinct species of metallic dragon. Zinc Dragons are believed to be the progenitors of the Brass Dragon along with Copper Dragons. Zinc Dragons are garrulous to the extreme, and always on the lookout for new gossip or some rare literary work.

Largely singular by nature, Zinc dragons will make their lairs in isolated spots so that they can read from their library horde in peace. Creatures of habit, they tend to roam the surround areas of habitation in changed form, looking for news and gossip in a regular pattern. 
Their breath weapon is a realtively impressive example of firebreath for a Dragon, especially considering that they are smaller than most metallic dragons.

Whilst their total extinction is still in doubt, their solitary nature DID lead to very low birth rates among Zinc Dragons, even by Dragon standards, and it would not be unthinkable that over the years unscrupulous scholars, warlocks and mages seeking fabled Zinc Dragon Library Hordes could have rendered the entire subspecies extinct.
