Ashen Dragons are upgraded tier-VII units of the Dungeon faction. They can be recruited from Cave Palace II.

They are upgraded versions of the Cave Dragon, the other being the Black Dragon.

Description

Ashen Dragons are often misunderstood — viewed as weak by those who fail to grasp their true strength, yet perceived as excessively power-hungry because of it.

I hope to live long enough to meet and speak with an ashen wyrm; surely, they would have a fascinating story to tell.
