SandWings

SandWings are pale-colored, fire-breathing dragons that inhabit the desert regions of Pyrrhia in the Kingdom of Sand. Originally they were ruled by Queen Oasis, but she was murdered by a scavenger. After her death,, the tribe has split between three sisters.  Blaze has the support of most of the SandWing tribe along with alliance with the IceWings. Blister is allied with the SeaWings (and secretly with the NightWings), and Burn is allied with the SkyWings and MudWings, but it is not known if the SkyWings will uphold this alliance.

Description

Sandwings are innately built for the desert. Pale gold or white scales that blend in with the desert sand, forked black tongues, and usually have black beady eyes. They can breath fire, and because of the fire inside they give off a warmth. At the ends of their tails are armed with a venomous scorpian-like barb that they use for defense.They're usually long-necked and muscular. Even their wings have sharp edges on the ends. An exception to this is Sunny, who lacks a tail barb and has darker gold scales and green eyes, possibly as a result of A) being pulled from the sand too early and B) the Guardians not knowing much about SandWing egg care. Some people have also speculated that she is a hybrid dragon.

Abilities

The two main defenses of the Sandwings are their ability to breath fire and their venomous tail, which they use to poison their enemies like scorpions. They can survive extended periods without water and can bury themselves in the desert sand to camouflage themselves. They also can withstand serious heat, although actual fire still burns them.
