This creature is the result of the fumecrux ritual performed on the head of a young adamantine dragon. Unlike most fumecruxes, draconic fumecruxes retain some of the unique magic of their living counterparts.

Fumecrux

Source Pathfinder #222: Hellbreakers pg. 229
By studying the phenomena of hellcrowns and beheaded, Chelaxian mages have created a fusion of the two. Years of experimentation culminated in the creation of fumecruxes, brimstone specters capped with the decapitated and rotting heads of great beasts. The process is being attempted more frequently as yet another weapon for the war against Andoran.

Sidebar - Advice and Rules Fumecrux Variants

As devastating as draconic fumecruxes are, they're uncommon sights to behold. Common fumecruxes are made from horses, large birds, and other mundane beasts. All fumecruxes display an apathy toward living creatures, including their makers, making them difficult to control. A necromancer who unleashes a fumecrux made from something as untamable as a dragon is either incredibly powerful or incredibly foolish.
