Lesser colddrakes are one of three types of colddrakes, the other two being greater colddrakes and greatest colddrakes. They are not as powerful as other drakes, but they can hold their own in a fight.

Subspecies. There are four subspecies of lesser colddrakes: shiverdrakes, chilldrakes, frostdrakes, and sleetdrakes. They are distinguished by the number of hit points they have, and their subspecies determines their armor class (use the table below). There is no particular difference between each type of lesser colddrake, and the only purpose of each subspecies is for social reasons and to find their AC.

Hit Points	Subspecies	AC
22-34	Shiverdrake	12
35-41	Chilldrake	12
42-47	Frostdrake	12
48-60	Sleetdrake	13
