Aeruthian Ivytail

Basic Information

Anatomy

Description: Aeruthian Ivytails are prized in their kingdom of origin, due to their color changing scales that reflect the seasons. They posses small, stinging barbs at the end of their tail that are mildly venomous, but very painful.
Colors: It depends on the season, but throughout the year their scales can be green, red, orange, yellow or a mix of them all, depending on the season. Green with small tinges of red is common during the spring and summer (right) and green with tinges of orange and yellow like an autumn leaf (left) is common during autumn. During the winter the scales usually dull out to a reddish brown, or depending on the line of the breed, sometimes even white.

Biological Traits

Originally bred from Yianosi Leaftails and mixed with several native Aeruthian dragon breeds.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Omnivorous, Ivytails are a very tenacious breed of dragon that can survive on almost anything, but they prefer meat whenever possible.

Behaviour

These dragons have a suspicious nature and tend to bond very strongly to one person. They need an experienced hand to handle, as they are incredibly smart and often mischevious, testing the limits of their riders at all times.
