Dejart-Saayar, the Sire of the Sands

Behavior: A fickle beast, the dejart-saayar is a sight to behold given it's lustrous scales that resembles plumage in nearly a rainbow of coloration. This species has been recorded long into the depths of early human and sub-human history. Blamed for the largest and most violent of sandstorms, and the most scorching of heatwaves. Not much is known about the creature itself outside of legend and speculation, with only a handful of recorded sightings each century at most. From accounts of travelers and scholars, it is said that the beast arrives in a whirlwind of explosively heated sand and has been reported to breathe such tremendously hot breath that the very sand in it's wake is turned to glass. Areas of the desert give mild support to these legends due to inexplicable formations of natural glass forming in shapes that suggest a strong wind.

Details: It is not uncommon for 'specialty' peddlers and merchants to sport supposed scales from this beast along with alleged teeth and claws. It is rumored that the scales harbor an impossible hardness that all but the most masterfully crafted blades and projectiles can pierce and that the teeth and claws can cut through every material save orichalcum.
