Harryhausen Dragon For Your Old School Space Opera

Taro may his comings  & his goings be ever joyful. 

May you never fall under the gaze of the great destroyer 

Never be caught within his sharp claws, the teeth that catch or his breath that burns.
May Taro bless you & always guard against the evil of others. 

Be ever so joyful within the confines of his cavern
May he guard us all until the end of days
Amen

This species has been found on over a dozen worlds seeded by the clone masters who use this monster as a terror weapon. The chaotic dispoistion & outright danger of these creatures makes them the perfect choose for guardians. They have become outright tame around some who use them to guard treasure, raid remote colonies, & use them as tools of out right terror.
 

Built on the genetic frame of the greater reptiles such as the dinosaur genomic structure. These monsters can be found on many worlds. They're preferred environment is a tropical or subtropical jungle environment. They consume vast quantities of livestock, humans, or worse. They are surly & vicious monster blood thirsty to a fault.
They will attack with claws capable of rending flesh from bone within seconds. These creatures will attack s natural enemy with abandon. They have very little regard for themselves during these times.
 

 The clone masters have engineered a superior predator capable of surviving within the harshest climates, They have several extra organs & sytems. These include a series of gas ducts & nerves which produce a large amount of material that some are calling a breath weapon.
This is a 90' long, 30' wide cone of fire & flame 4 times per day 

 These monsters are not intelligent per say but display a vicious animal cunning which is unpredictable & very dangerous. For over 6 centuries these monsters have been the terrors from beyond the pale causing strife & another kink within the armor of the Human Empire. 

The enemies of mankind call these things Chrair'l meaning "Long Mean Teeth Who Walk" They have been seeded on numerous worlds in order to cause death, & panic among the imperial citizens. 

Many adventurers have found these monsters guarding ancient alien fortresses left over from ancient alien societies who have disappeared into the annals of history. These worlds are perfect where they thrive on local fauna & flora. 

Many Imperial royalty have taken to hunting these beasts only to find that these creatures hunt them instead. They are truly the prey of the gods themselves. May Toro guard your hoard in times of need!
