Description
Steel dragons are much like the other races of metallic dragon with one primary exception: they prefer to maintain the form of a human (or other sentient race) in order to mingle with, infiltrate and study the cultures of men and their ilk. Because of this, few people know when they are interacting with a Steel Dragon.
When in human form they will always have a feature which betrays their nature, though it may be carefully concealed. This may be a shock of steel-gray hair, or an eye that appears silvered over with age, or any other feature that resembles their natural complexion.
In dragon form, a steel dragon has hair-like spines around its head and a cat-like body with a vaguely human-like face. Its scales, of course, resemble steel armor.

Famous quotes containing the word description:
“It is possible—indeed possible even according to the old conception of logic—to give in advance a description of all ‘true’ logical propositions. Hence there can never be surprises in logic.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“God damnit, why must all those journalists be such sticklers for detail? Why, they’d hold you to an accurate description of the first time you ever made love, expecting you to remember the color of the room and the shape of the windows.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
