Deathwings

LOCATION AND TERRAIN

Deathwings are an independant tribe, rarely contacting outsiders. They live deep under the outer islands of pantala in a massive series of cave systems. They make nests on the ledges of the caves with rocks and a sticky, bioluminescent substance called glowstuff (like glow worms but non-sentient). Only a few dragons from the surface have ventured in these deep caves, collecting the knowledge the Deathwings were willing to share.

 DESCRIPTION 

Deathwings can have deep blue, green or black scales, royal Deathwings have iridescent black scales and white flecks under their eyes. Both royal and non-royal dragons can have a variety of colors for their eyes (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, or purple) and razor sharp spines along their backs. hey have two sets of eyes, one for seeing in the dark and one for light. They have two sets of large, bat-like wings that are covered in sharp spines like their bodies. Surface dragons gathered that the spines are venomous and could kill a dragon in a matter of minutes if one small spine even scratches a dragon. Deathwings themselves are immune to the venom. They eat a kind of root to do so.

 STATUS 

Even though they haven't been seen for a while, Deathwings always make sure to leave little signs that they still exist. These include moonstone circles, rock carvings of their queen, and even messages in the old language.

 CULTURE 

known for their love of astrology, they learn about constellations and their meanings, the great warrior Zodiac and how she found refuge for the Deathwings, math, science, history, art, theatre, and other classes. Once a year, Deathwings come out of the caves to host a parade called "Night of The Constellations"

Deathwings value death, it helps the ecosystem. They will not fight unless ordered by Queen Gemini.

All royals are decended from Zodiac and like her, are named astrology related names. (see Deathwing names for examples)
