Skelerent
Anatomy
The most significant part of these giants bodies were the 3 pairs of legs that stuck up and out of their backs. Their bellies were completely exposed, ribs jutting out and a large slab of bone that protected their vital organs. Their actual bodies were tiny and shrivelled, resembling that of a dried fruit encased in bone. Skelerents had large heads sat on short necks, with long snouts ending in two fangs. Their long tails could be used to slash at their prey, making a large snapping sound, like a whip.Exoskeleton
A significant part of their physical appearances were their exoskeleton. With a small body, their ribs and bone plates stuck out below them, acting like a protective cage for their delicate insides. However, because of the dragons size, people could fit through the gaps in their ribs, which made their bodies easy targets.Organs
The composition of skelerent organs is incredibly fascinating. I have seen few, but heard lots about them. Apparently, certain parts of their organs can be used for medicines, cures for serious diseases. Before the dragons went extinct, their organs were sold to hospitals for humongous sums of money.Size
Skelerents were one of the largest dragons to roam the continent of Maerkhor. Roughly 60 metres long, their footprints left marks deep enough for one to fall into. Old cave paintings describe these dragons towering over trees and forests, which made them incredibly easy targets.

Oh my Gods, finding notes on dead dragons is so hard, why can't there be some book that contains all the information on the planet?
Oh wait- that's what I'm doing.
