Ferno the Fire Dragon: Series 1 Book 1 (Beast Quest)

Product Information

The Beast lowered his head towards them, examining his new foes, holding Tom's gaze before the inexperienced warrior broke eye contact and brandished his sword, causing Ferno to react and uncoil his tail, menacingly whipping it. Ferno snapped his jaws at Epos, being countered by her beak, starting to tear each other apart while Sam and Maximus engaged. Ferno landed and allowed the two young dragons to climb onto his back, personally taking them to the mountains deeper in Rion to train. After Quarg was freed from Jezrin's control, he used his fire to melt the dart, reviving Ferno, who awoke and the two dragons exchanged a nod before Quarg left and Ferno took the group deeper into Drakonia.

Like the other Good Beasts of Avantia, Ferno was driven into Gorgonia by Malvel to be disposed of by the Beasts of Gorgonia.

When the group stopped to help Seth, Ferno stayed out the fight with Epos, watching but not attacking.

He approached the Metal Warrior and released a jet of fire on the Henkrallian Beast, who tried to fly away, but fell to the ground as his wings melted. These claws are sharp enough to draw blood from Arcta and make significant gashes in Ferrok's chest. When Tom and Elenna were trying to find Ferno's phoenix sister, Spiros, Ferno was summoned to them to help. Maximus chose Ferno to be the first Beast to serve him in the Battle of the Beasts, and used dark magic to tame him and bend him to his will. A ballista fired its bolt at Ferno, almost striking his head before a hail of arrows bounced off his scales.Flying over the icy wastes near the Frozen Ocean, the combination of the cold and exhaustion from nearly dying (as well as potential lingering effects of the dart), caused the Beast to begin to lose altitude and crash. Due to the location of the Chamber of Pain in the Western Ocean, only three Beasts could reach the battleground: Ferno, Sepron, and Epos. Limited Camouflage: Ferno can camouflage himself to look like a rock by folding his wings over his body. Doing it a second time at Tom's request, Claw dropped to his knees, giving Tom the time to free the Golden Chainmail. As the Mirror Demon pursued Tom and Elenna to Gorgonia, Kapra used her serpentine magic to cover Ferno and the other Good Beasts in binding snakes.

They were seen and the Tangalan military scrambled archers, ballistas and catapults to deal with what they perceived to be an aggressive Beast attacking the city. As the Beast advanced to transform Tom into one of his minions, Ferno arrived, roaring in challenge and descending on the battleground.

When the city began to collapse after Ravira's defeat, the Fire Dragon and Flame Bird flew away, reuniting with the villagers (recovering from being Hounds of Avantia) and Tom and Elenna, flying in circles over the group. Ferno and Epos didn't follow Tom and Elenna in trying to recover Vedra, instead Ferno used his wings to hide himself and Epos, simply appearing as a large rock. He wobbly flew over the Bone Spider and released a jet of flame on her, forcing her to release Tom before rolling across the sand to attempt to extinguish the fire.
