Sandworms can eat pretty much anything, sure, but that’s where a luckdragon can come in handy: it can discriminate. It can target.

A child-loving creepster. Also he had pearlescent bling scales or something. And hair. And a funny nose and kind of terrifying plant eater teeth.

More ridiculous than the Old Man of the Desert?

Absofrigginlutely

Shai Hulud forever. Riding around on Falcor means you’re a kid with an overactive imagination. Harnessing some desert power means you’re a deadly killer who gets what they bloody well want! Come hell or.. very low amounts of water.
