On a hatchling, these scales were small, translucent, and light purple, but as they aged they became steadily darker and more crystalline in appearance.

Personality
They were considered wise and majestic even by dragon standards. But they were aloof and paid little heed to conflicts between good and evil or chaos and law, as they believed them to be but petty squabbles.

Abilities
They tended to be poor flyers but could burrow underground.

Combat
Adult amethyst dragons preferred to use invisibility to catch their opponents off-guard. Their breath weapon was a blast of concussive force. Additionally, once per day, amethyst dragons could spit a crystalline lozenge which exploded on impact.

Lairs
Most amethyst dragons lived in the Elemental Plane of Earth.
