The tun mi lung is a fearsome dragon which dwells in the seas and oceans. However, it is most
commonly encountered in the sky along seacoasts or far out to sea. It is wingless; the power of flight comes
from a magical pearl lodged in its brain. The Celestial Emperor has charged the tun mi lung with the duty of
causing destructive typhoons and hurricanes which ravage the coasts of warmer lands. This is a task they enjoy
greatly. Although they are only supposed to act on the orders of the Celestial Bureaucracy, they have a habit of
forgetting this fact, launching into destructive rampages out of sheer maliciousness. Such is their great power
that even the Celestial Emperor finds it hard to restrain and punish them.

In addition to the standard powers of the oriental dragon, the tun mi lung has the power to summon a
divine wind (as per the spell) of great strength. The radius of this effect is equal to five times the age level of the
tun mi lung in miles. The power is usable only once per week, but the duration of the effect is 6d4 hours. The
tun mi lung is always at the center of the storm and it moves along with him as he travels. In combat, should the
typhoon power of the tun mi lung be insufficient, it attacks with its claws and bite. It possess no breath weapon.
It is immune to all water- and air-based attacks.

Nothing conclusive is known of the lairs of tun mi lung.
However, as members of the Celestial Bureaucracy, they probably maintain palaces appropriate to their station under the sea. Their evil nature makes
them unwelcome to the more peaceful and cultured creatures of the sea and it is likely that their mansions are in
remote corners of the ocean. The tun mi lung speak the languages of all sea creatures, the Celestial Court, and
the Sea Lords.
