Patrakku (Pa-Trra-Coo)

Patrakku (Imperial Wythian: Winged Viper), known in Wythe as Wyverns and commonly referred to as Kinfo-Nyaka (IW: Flying Death), are large winged reptilian creatures native to the lush highlands of Mrembura. Sharing some distant relation to the great Dragon-Tyrants of Teoti Itza, Patrakku are vicious, highly aggressive creatures, lacking the intellect and cunning of their draconic kin but compensating with a highly-venomous bite and unparalled ferocity.

Appearance

Unlike true dragons, Patrakku bear no vibrant plumage of any kind, covered instead with dull green-grey scales and wicked spines running from snout to tail. They have four limbs: two wings, which like bats serve as forelimbs in addition to being used for flight, and two hind legs. Patrakku have leathery wings, long necks and tails, and wickedly-sharp talons.

Behavior

Vatasvi Anga

As mentioned above, certain breeds of Patrakku can be tamed and otherwise grow comfortable in the presence of men when raised from birth in captivity.
