Eraser Dragons ('''dracos palimpsest'''), also known as whiteout dragons, nega-dragons, or dispel dragons, are a breed of dragon commonly confused with white dragons, much to their chagrin. Unlike the relatively dull-witted white dragons, eraser dragons are disturbingly intelligent and painfully alert. They have a bad reputation of being snobby , as eraser dragons seem to possess racial OCD over perfection in certain fields, often correcting others the moment they detect a spelling error, a grammatical mishap, or going out of their way to "correct" the arrangement of objects and works of art. Their lairs need not be prestinepristine, though they often are, but an eraser dragon certainly knows whenever things have been moved , for they have arranged their lairs just so to their liking. Outwardly , they resemble white dragons, with strange eyes whose whites of their eyes and black pupils are polarity reversed. Wyrmlings appear to nearly be made out of a matte white liquid, so fine are their scales and so gentle their movements. As the eraser dragon ages , its color does not fade , but its skin cracks and seems to become brittle, with fresh white liquid flowing underneeth, and their eyes transform from highly contrasted inverted colors to an even monochrome gray sphere. Their bodies are sleek and serpentine, with wings tipped with sharp bone points, and a "bushy" tail tip composed of dozens of flexible spines. It has two foward curving horns that dip over its head and nostrils, and a sharp jutting jaw flat and shovel-like. They give off a faintly unplesent unpleasant oder of paint. Their similar wyrmling scale appearance and the fact that it produces a stark white ichor gives some credability credibility to the idea that eraser dragons and [[Pendragon (3.5e Monster)|pendragons]] are related, yet the two species have an unexplained rivalry, perhaps stemming from the pendragon's desire to write against the eraser's dragon's preference for unblemished, prestine surfaces devoid of text.
Eraser dragons are loners, a result of their OCD making them socially abrasive, combined with a need for perfection. They are also introspective and likely to follow monk or paladin-like paths of thought and enlightenment. Solitude is a blessing, silence is golden, and the utter white blank expanse of an empty snowfield is beauty. They perfer prefer wastes, and can hide best in the cold tundras, yet this is also the home of white dragons, furthering the confusion between them. Then again, there is an advantage to being presumed dull-witted when you are in combat.
===Combat===
Eraser Dragons which have entered combat use their abilities to erase the advantages of the enemy, then finishing finish them off with the brute force that dragons possess. Their dispel breath removes magical threats, and then physical threats are dealt with the application of spells or spell-like abilities, and the whiteout aura to blind them to even even the presence of the dragon.
;Breath Weapon ([[Su]]): An eraser dragon has two types of breath weapons, a line of blinding and quick-hardening liquid and a cone of dispelling gas. The line of liquid deals the listed amount in [[Dexterity]] damage and both blinds and entangles the opponent for 1 round per age catagorycategory, [[Reflex]] save for half damage and negates blinding/entanglemet (save negates both damage and blind/entanglement for wyrmlings). The other breath sprays what seems to be an opaque white cloud of gas, which acts as ''[[SRD:Dispel Magic|dispel magic]]'' with no cap on maximum caster level. The caster level for the effect equals the dragon's HD.
;Negation ([[Su]]): A young eraser dragon can negate the full effect of spells upon it with effort. They gain the benefits of evasion and mettle, allowing them to take no damage on a successful [[Reflex]] save and suffer no effect on a successful [[Fort]] or [[Will]] partial save. This is a result of directly negating the circumstances of the effect, rather than through actual evasion, and so may be used even if in heavy armor, encumbered, or otherwise impeded, but not if the dragon is unconcious or helpless.
