Official descriptions[]

Cold flames dance across the surface of this egg.

Hatchling[]

Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It is very dark in color, but its eyes glow brightly.

Mature hatchling[]

Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It is very dark in color, but its eyes glow brightly.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing.

Adult[]

Falconiform Wyverns are normally shy creatures. However, when approached, they often feel threatened, and the flames along their bodies leap higher. Females tend to be smaller than males, though Falconiform Wyverns are typically rather large overall. They use their size to their advantage by hunting smaller dragons. The Falconiform’s graceful, swooping dives are said to resemble birds of prey. Falconiforms are largely solitary dragons that only meet in order to breed.

Appearance/Basic Anatomy

  • The wings of a Falconiform Wyvern are large, giving them excellent control in the air and allowing them to make graceful, swooping dives.
  • Their blue flames are no normal fire—they can be hot or cold at the wyvern’s will.
  • Female Falconiform Wyverns are generally smaller than males, and have no “beard.”
  • Can breathe blue fire, but they don’t use it often.

  • Falconiformes have strong legs and feet with raptorial claws.
  • Sexual dimorphism is hard to see while they are flying.

Hatchling Behavior

  • Hatchlings are afraid of their inability to control their flames, so they are very careful with it.
  • Can be reserved, sometimes they are very shy.
  • Frequently practice their fighting skills against other dragons.
  • Young have a long, fast-growing fledgling stage.
  • Learn how to fly very early.
  • It is hard to see the differences between male and female when they are young.

Adult Behavior

  • If a dragon wants to breathe fire, it can control the heat of it (up to blue flame).
  • Bodies become amazingly hot when they breathe fire.
  • Ability to control flames increases with age; the oldest dragons are also the most skilled.
  • The wyverns are not afraid of fighting other dragons.
  • To protect their territory and their young, they are merciless in battle.

Habitat

  • Prefer hotter regions.
  • Observe their domain from high perches.

Diet

  • Falconiform Wyverns hunt smaller dragons using their very good sight during the day or at twilight.
  • Enjoy sinking their claws and teeth into their prey.
  • Don’t often use their fire to hunt.

Additional information[]

Biome:
Alpine and Volcano where the ones I requested, I prefered the Alpine but I think Volcano fit them too.

We made the dragon completly new because we weren't able to contact Munin. Tj wanted us to work on the dragon again, because we got better over the years.

We don`t want to touch the sprites of munin without permission, so we made new ones. All the sprites you are able to see and the adults are new, except of the male s2. I made the sketches for them and sprited them together with Infinis, Munins credits are only on the S2 male. All the others are made by Infinis and myself.
