Scauldron

The Scauldron (Leviathas squarrosus) is a dragon that can be found in tropical areas exposed to the open ocean. Despite the presence of wings, it is classified as a Leviathan. It can squirt boiling bursts of water at hunters to inflict Scalded, an ailment that combines Fireblight and Waterblight.

Item Descriptions
H:
 * Scauldron Hide+: The supple hide from a slippery leviathan. Much more pleasing than most leviathans' hides.
 * Scauldron Scale+: This scale resembles that of a fish, but is actually from a Scauldron. It glimmers with fantastic blues and greens.
 * Scauldron Fin+: The powerful fin of a Scauldron, designed to propel the beast through miles of salty seawater.
 * Scauldron Oil+: Found inside the Scauldron's sweat glands, this oil is a great medicine. Its taste leaves something to be desired.
 * Scauldron Tail: A tail from a leviathan of the deep. It is powerful enough to slap a tree in half.
 * Scauldron Fang+: A long fang from the Scauldron, designed to grasp fish and inject poison. Venom glands not included.
 * Scauldron Webbing+: The webbing of the leviathan's wings is much more powerful than that of its fins.

G:
 * Scauldron Piel: Smooth, pleasing hide from a rare leviathan. It practically slips through the fingers like water.
 * Scauldron Shard: This Scauldron scale rivals all others. It has an iridescent sheen that makes it irresistible.
 * Scauldron Fan: The fan-like fin found on a Scauldron. Besides aiding in swimming, it has many other functions.
 * Scauldron Lubricant: Oil from a Scauldron. It is much more medicinally powerful than fish oil, but tastes worse than Aptonoth dung.
 * Scauldron Flail: This tail can crack boulders by slapping them. Unfortunately, humans can't apply that much force - or even lift it in the first place.
 * Scauldron VenomFang: This fang injects a terrible poison that kills within twenty-four hours. Luckily, antivenin is readily available.
 * Scauldron Wing: The wing of a Scauldron, in tip-top condition. It is so powerful that not even a sword could cut through it.
