Wind Drake

Hahliahoyarouhanes: "The Screaming Winds"

 

Range: The Badlands

Physical Appearance: The Wind Drake has a pair of especially large wings covered in long, silvery feathers tipped in cobalt blue. The majority of these are for flight, but five are hollow bone digits disguised with vanes. A silvery coat of coarse shaft buds colors its tan hide, and its scaled legs are the only part of the body bare of any hint of feathers. A tail with feathers streaked in cobalt blue has very limited flexibility and is used for steering. A stiff ruffled crest of blue feathers begins at the top of its white and silver mane and runs to the tail, and its fanged maw ends in a beak-like curve.

The Wind Drake is an incredibly fast flier, and generally calls the entire Badlands its home, only avoiding other drakes in its travels. However, it is fiercely territorial and will relentlessly fight any creature that dares come into range of its own domain(where exactly its domain is changes frequently and mostly depends on its very fickle mood).

It is an exceedingly powerful aeromancer, generally foregoing spells for simple, straightforward destruction in its attacks. Since it usually makes its home in the air, it has little regard for the ground, and will unleash its full fury in combat no matter the cost. A deafening cry is capable of shattering stone with its high pitch and flattening forests with booming force and with a flap of its wings the drake can summon immense aeromantic power, unleashing it upon its enemies. Such is also an effective method of movement, as the force of the magics can propel it aloft instantly.
