Breath Weapon (Su): A rust dragon has two breath weapons: a 100-ft. line of acid (16d4 acid, Ref DC 29 half), or a 50-ft. cone of reddish-brown liquid that instantly corrodes and destroys any metal it touches. Attended and magical metals receive Reflex saves (DC 29 neg.) to avoid this effect, but any metal is susceptible: iron, steel, silver, gold, even mithril and adamantine. DC Con-based.
Metal Resistance (Ex): Against weapons whose damage-dealing part is metal (a blade, metal point, arrow-head, or even mace head), the dragon has DR 20/magic and 5/chaotic.
Rusting Bite: A rust dragon that makes a successful bite attack causes metal armor worn by the target creature to corrode, falling to pieces and becoming useless immediately. A dragon can also use its bite attack to target a weapon or other metal object, of course. The size of the object is immaterial- a full suit of armor rusts away as quickly as a sword. Magic metal items are allowed Reflex saves (DC 29 neg.; Con-based save).
