Windwyrm Abilities
The Windwyrms are the largest and most physically powerful of dragonkind, possessing extreme strength and endurance. Their long, hooked talons can shred through scales and dent steel, and they can lift immense amounts of weight.
Windwyrms have keen, hawk-like vision able to pick up UV light, decent hearing, and an abysmal sense of smell. They can only pick up on particularly strong scents and tracking things via smell is just not going to happen unless they have a trained hound. Their thick feathers provide protection from the extreme cold of the high mountains and winters, as well as providing some protection from blunt force. They’re extremely fast fliers and can dive at terrifying speeds, and are on top of their prey before the animal even knows that they’re there. On top of their natural prowess, the windwyrms have a secondary pair of lungs that allow them to exhale highly concentrated bursts of air, capable of breaking bones and shattering a tree at close range. A high-pitched hum can be heard as they prepare this ability, the only warning to get out of the way before it’s too late. |
