Draca Pendant

Why not take that super detailed dragon pendant to new heights by scaling it up and up and up for a show-stopping piece? In the epic poem Beowulf, the described dragon is the earliest example of a European dragon in literature and the first incidence of a fire-breathing one, too! But the characterization goes beyond just fire-breathing: the Beowulf dragon is described with Old English terms like draca (dragon) and wyrm (worm or serpent), and as a creature with a deadly venomous bite. The poet behind Beowulf also gave this dragon specific traits: it's nocturnal, hoards treasure, inquisitive, vengeful, and fire-breathing. Looks like we've got ourselves a real problem!
