Wyvern ● Dragon ● Huge
D:3

Wyverns are the least intelligent of the dragons with some of them never even mastering the ability to speak, but they are as brutal and vicious as they are simple. They attack anything that approaches their hoards. Wyverns are considered more dangerous than Serpents because of their violent natures and their sudden attacks.
Wyverns live in the mountains or in the deep forests. Anywhere that has high roosts for them to build nests and raise their young. They prefer to hunt from the air but forest Wyverns have been known to go to ground to find food.
Encounters with Wyverns vary widely depending on the age of the Wyvern encountered. Young Wyverns will usually attack mercilessly for the simple joy of killing and dominating. Older Wyverns might have learned the common tongue and if they are too tired to hunt will simply engage in rather insulting rhetoric.
