SkyWings
SkyWings are red, orange, yellow, or (rarely) copper colored dragons that are ruled by Queen Scarlet. They are allied with Burn and the MudWings. It is currently unknown where Queen Scarlet is located or whether or not her daughter, Queen Ruby, will uphold the alliance with Burn and the MudWings or not. However, Queen Scarlet is confirmed to be alive.
Description
SkyWings range in color from orange to red-gold and have red, yellow, amber or orange eyes. They have enormous wings which make them excellent fliers. In addition, they can breathe fire.
Abilities
SkyWings are well-known for their superior fighting skills. They are also fantastic fliers due to their oversized wings, and are capable of breathing large amounts of fire.
In rare cases, a dragonet can be born with too much fire. Usually the mother will drop the dragonet over a cliff to kill it. This may or may not be true, since for Perils whole life, Scarlet lied to her about many things. They possess so much fire that smoke literally pours off of their scales and out of their nostrils. Everything they touch burns, which makes them virtually invulnerable to any attack by any dragon, but also curses them by making them unable to have any physical contact with any living being. Therefore, they are often shunned and alone. They are characterized by blue eyes, copper scales and golden streaks in their scales. These kinds of SkyWings fire is actually hotter than regular fire; just by touching they can burn through fireproof metal. In The Dragonet Prophecy, they are required to eat black rocks, or, suggested by Peril but discouraged by Kestrel, they could get extremely sick. However, this turns out to be not true, as Peril only got sick out of poison in her food from Queen Scarlet.
An example of this kind of dragon Peril.
When a dragonet is born with too much fire, they will usually have a twin with too little fire. This twin is often killed along with their sibling.
Society
SkyWing culture is built mainly on warfare and power. SkyWings value excitement and often times gore, as shown with the SkyWing Arena. But they still keep in mind justice and honor, as with the Champions Shield. Many themes from the Arena are based off the Roman Colosseum.
