Wyvern (WHY-vern)
A wyvern is a species of dragon that lives in Dracia.
Basic Information

Wyverns resemble much like western dragons, their closest relatives; however they only have one pair of legs and large wings. This dragon species has a barbed, poisonous stinger at the end of its tail that is used for protection and predation
Genetics and Reproduction
Wyverns, like all dragons, hatch from eggs.
Growth Rate & Stages
A wyvern reaches full maturity the fastest of all dragons, less than 10 years.

Wyvern inhabit high in the mountains and plateaus in the more northern areas. They also stalk the cold seas for larger prey.
Dietary Needs and Habits

Behaviour
Wyverns are the most aggressive of the dragon species.
