Port's Plague
He awoke to see the fangs mere inches from his throat. He curled his hand into a fist and backhanded the fiend with all his strength. The reptile growled and hissed, backing off and lashing his tail behind him once again. It could easily extend its head to four feet off the ground.
"What are those things!?" Shanku asked in horror.
"The Port's Plague!" The man growled and quickly donned his bracers. Four of the plague stood before him, bobbing their heads and circling their intended prey. A fifth suddenly dropped from the branches above with a blood-curdling shriek, the cruel feet opened in a star pattern to extend the talons to the fullest.
The man reacted quickly and drove his dagger deep into the chest of the diving reptile. He immediately hurled it to the ground with the momentum of the dive as the glowing green blood quickly ate through the carcass like acid. Rhett then charged at another.

Port's Plague
Where were Rhett's bracers? Why, he was using them as a pillow!
These things had no set character design in their many renditions. This is kind of a loose combination of all the forms they went through. Although, by accident, they are a lot dang bigger than they were supposed to be. They're supposed to be the size of a large bat. 
One thing I really need to note: They are not dragons. They may have draconic features, but they are not dragons. And this page is why the comic went from a G to PG rating. Maybe PG-13.
Tackling is fun. And if you outweigh your opponent, you can do some pretty solid pins. But I do not outweigh the friends I romp with, so I usually settle for just making it really difficult for them to get back up. Tackling can also be an interesting way to check out people you're thinking of dating. 
Rhett's approach, however, is much more efficient at permanently warding off attackers.
