Dragon tortoise

Dragon tortoises were terrestrial creatures that, like their aquatic cousins the dragon turtles, were related to dragons.

Description
They had massive shells, within which could form very small crevices that made suitable homes for tiny creatures.

Combat
These creatures were capable of breathing out a destructive blast of sand that spewed outward in a cone, slashing away at the flesh of its foes.

Ecology
Dragon tortoises were observed to live for other thousands of years.
