Wyvern

Wyverns are generally the most common and well-known type of Wyrm. Their features greatly resemble that of their dragon counterparts, taking on most of the typical draconic traits such as the razor-sharp teeth, spined backs, leathery wings, scaly bodies and often horns sprouting from their heads.

Wyverns never have more than two legs, their hind legs being quite strong and taking almost full responsibility for their movement on land. All wyverns are raptor-like in their forms, with a pair of large leathery wings sprouting from their shoulders. More often than not, their wings will have claws, useful for climbing buildings and assisting the Wyvern in moving on the ground.

They will often, but not always, have the ability to breath a liquid fire, which is produced from deep within their chest. Sometimes, Wyverns have other weapons at their disposal, such as being able to spit acid or produce a thick smog. This is not always the case, however, it is known to have happened.

Wyverns are physically strong and quite large, taller than the average horse and more than twice as long (tail length and all). Their claws are extremely sharp as are their teeth, but contrary to popular belief their bones, teeth, and claws are not unnaturally durable (definitely not a viable weapon material). Much like any other beast, their bones are merely bones.

Their scales are much softer than that of a dragon or drake (and their corrupted cousins), taking on a more snake-like appearance. Their scales are often rather smooth, but should not be confused with weakness, as their hides are quite thick and able to withstand being embedded with numerous arrows.

Much like most predators, Wyverns feed on a surplus of raw meats, preferring to catch their prey themselves and savagely feast on them. Their young also pick up this instinct at quite an early age; a baby wyvern is far more vicious than it is cute. They breed much like fish do, in the sense that the female Wyvern will lay a surplus of eggs, while the male (the bull) will fertilize them. Because of this, a great majority of Wyverns are female. Note: Bull Wyverns (male) are far superior to their female counterparts, but far rarer, being almost twice as large and having much more coarse and hardened scales.
