Gorynyches are a race of three-headed dragons who bully other dragons and plunder countrysides.1

Ecology

Motivated by greed, gluttony, and lust, gorynyches live to hoard treasure, eat, and chase humanoid maidens. They are particularly creative in utilising their limited wishes to replicate the effect of other spells. Gorynyches search out ancient ruins, installing themselves as guardians and gathering tribes of monstrous humanoids as their servants.1

Society

Gorynyches are no friend to evil true dragons, often preying on young green and black dragons to steal their domains and hoards. They dominate drakes and wyverns, while true dragons consider the gorynych a repulsive throwback to an ancient line of mutants and deviants.1
