Ranikli Species in Keverynn | World Anvil

Ranikli

No one pays much attention to these small wyvern as they are quite isolationist in nature. They avoid anything to deal with the other wyvern and even hold themselves apart from the rest in war time.
Matriarchs rule over sections of the Snow Demon Mountains where the ranikli live. Females have harems, but they don’t live with them all the time. The males live and hunt together while the females prefer to live alone, visiting their harems when they want to use the males for something. Sometimes the females will opt to guard the eggs herself. In these cases, the males will hunt and bring her food.
Males aren’t very timid, but they aren’t bold either.

Basic Information

Anatomy

There is no size difference between the males and females.
The four segmented fan behind their jaws is made up of five bones with skin stretched between them, similar to how the wingsails are built. These fans are fully mobile and are used to convey emotion in combination with body posture. Other wyvern use facial expressions in combination with body posture, but as ranikli are smaller and have less musculature in their faces, they need another means of expression.
Males are white with cream colored wing sails and silver talons.
