According to the list set up on CF, no. Don't let that stop you from adding one though ;)

I apologize in advance for being a nitpicker.

The Troll Fens are on the Theocracy of the Pale border, Trollclaw is a ford in Faerun. You proabably just had a slip of the mind is all. Anyhow, to elaborate on the question, in the LG intro-adventure 'Fright at Tristor' there is a mysterious landmark on the edge of the Troll Fens near the village of Tristor called the Blue Dragon Tusk (iirc). One could draw some conclusions on dragons having been in the fens from that, although blue isn't what you'd normally associate with that region.

First introduced in the DLR1 Otherlands (Dragonlance) accessory, Brine Dragons are, seeminly, a mutant (fully aquatic) variety of black dragons that look like giant plesiosauri. They have a salt & alkaline-based breath weapon equivalent to acid.

A running experiment among DL gnomes is to get a brine and a black dragon together and get them to breath at each other at the same time because the gnomes think their respective breath weapons would cancel each other out and simply produce water. It goes without saying volunteers have still to return alive ..

A Darksun question next, perhaps?

In this case, I can understand why he asked it. The list of GH dragons posted on CF includes 1 "brine dragon". Can't fault him for it, now can we?

Weirdly enough, Chaotic Neutral (at least in 2E)
