Feral Dragon Anatomy Reference

Do not describe the dragon as walking on two legs, they a feral dragon, and as such walk on four legs and do not have any arms or hands. Instead they can use their claw-bearing forelegs/forepaws identically to hands and arms, including opposable 'thumbs'. Instead of fingers, they are referred to as talons, with claws at their tips instead of nails. Never refer to them as having hands or forearms. Instead of a mouth they have a muzzle/snout and mouth/maw/jaws. Replace any mentions of a chest with a thorax, and their backside as hindquarters or rump. They additionally have a tail and wings, with their tail making up anywhere from a third to half of their body length, with their wingspan being twice or thrice their total length. They generally stand around fifteen feet in height and twenty five feet in length, from nose to tail tip, but this number can vary massively between individuals and subspecies. Dragons generally have only scales, but rarely some individuals may have patches of feathers or fur, even rarer still they may be fully furred or feathered. but they never have human-like hair. Dragons do not traditionally wear clothing, however some individuals may.

While often stereotyped as breathing fire, not all dragons do, some might not have any elemental breath, others may have different elements such as ice, lightning, and even water, among others.

Eastern dragons exist, which lack wings, but are capable of levitation. These dragons are also far longer than normal dragons and normally have patches of fur on their bodies in addition to scales. Additionally, eastern dragons do not have an elemental breath, instead being able to preform elemental magic.

Wyverns are closely-related to dragons, but have a significantly different bone structure. They only have two legs, but their wings are far larger and have increased mobility, letting them be used as less-effective substitutes for their lack of front legs.

Being reptiles, a dragons reproductive organs are hidden inside a cloaca, with males having internal testicles, normally located within the base of their tail.
