Serpentine Dragons

These forest-dwelling dragons are also called "silent death" as their poisonous breath can kill unsuspecting adventurers without them noticing.
While wild and aggressive in nature, once these dragons are old enough the change shape, they like to blend into an existing civilisation and manipulate it to their own twisted desires. Several past regents and politicians, that suddenly vanished when word of such a dragon closeby got around, are said to have been dragons in disguise. 
Most notably the population of lizard-folk inside The Jewel-Forest is said to be lead by a serpentine dragon in disguise.
They, like most other dragons, are very territorial and won't allow any other dragon inside their territory (with the exception of their mate and young).

Anatomy

Their scales can reach different shades of green to blend in with the forest.
Their horns somewhat resemble the antlers of an deer.
Their arms and wings merged together making them looking similar to wyverns but way bigger, which is further supported by their relatively long bodies and small hind legs.

Beauty Ideals

While not much being known about their private life, it's been observed that serpentine dragons prefer mates, whose antler-like horns are bigger and more complex.
It is also very likely that, like with other dragons, shiny scales are perceived as more beautiful among serpentine dragons. 
It has been noted that some dragons of this species use leaves and flowers to decorate their horns during certain times of the year.
