Hellkite Dragon

The Red Drake (aka Hellkite Dragon, Bridge Wyvern) is a large drake located on the bridge that leads to the castle in Undead Parish. It guards the bridge until it is killed or until you light the Bonfire in the room behind it, although if you light the Bonfire, it'll return later. The Drake will only return if you go onto the bridge from the far side from the bonfire, it will not be there as you walk out.

Attacks

 * The Drake flies across the bridge, burning everything in it's way with it's mighty flame breath. Normal damage and knockdown.


 * The Drake stays in it's spot and breathes fire down the bridge. Normal damage and knockdown.


 * The Drake stays in its spot, and begins breathing fire on the far end of the bridge, and slowly breathes across the entire bridge. Very high damage, sometimes instant kill, especially if close. Knockdown (if you survive that is).


 * The Drake stays in it's spot and does a side-to-side breathing attack, damaging the player two-three times. Normal/"low" damage per hit and knockdown.


 * Keep in mind that almost all its attack can be blocked with a high fire protecting shield, like the Sunlight Shield. Some damage will still break through, but not nearly as much as if you were to not block.

Trivia

 * A "drake" is a kin of the mighty dragons, but not a full dragon, kind of like the wolf and dog, or lion and cat. The word is often used to describe a particular type of draconic creature.
