Also, I’m willing to bet it’s less the flying western depiction of dragons, and more of a sort of Sea Serpent, like Jörmungandr, Scylla, or Leviathan. Scylla in particular would be fitting, as her whole schtick in Greek mythos is that she was once just a nymph, but was turned into a monster.

@Mirage

Im on the fence interpreting the dragons as straight up independent creatures or a mass mutation of hundreds of atlanteans merged together to form a truly horrific entity

Also, I would think theyd be in the water w/o wings, but would PROBABLY be large enough to not even need to fly. Sky islands are still cooked.

@Retribution

Masses of atlanteans smashed together create some grotesque drakes (flightless dragons, for those unaware) that become exceedingly hard to kill because they’re multiple organisms, like a Man O’ War.

We can then talk about atlantean-corrupted dragons… But the first idea I had was corrupted sea serpents that would fire sprays of tainted seawater from their mouths? Could be interesting to essentially have an active threat that poisons people and makes actual sea travel more dangerous.

Guys, Arcane Abyss Sea isn’t a hivemind, I swear.

But yeah, everyone in there has got a theory on the dragons.
