SandWings are one of the seven tribes living on Pyrrhia. They live in the Kingdom Of Sand located south-west of the center of Pyrrhia, on the “chest” of the continent. They are currently ruled by Queen Thorn.[1] However, before Thorn, the SandWings had 'The SandWing Succession' crisis that they dragged every tribe, except RainWings, into. They are characterized by their ability to go for weeks without water[2] and days without food,[3]their venomous tail barb, and ability to blend into sand.[2]
Appearance
SandWing scales and wings are the color of sand, white, or light brown, possibly even reddish in color, and different hues of pale gold. They are able to have patterns of darker colors such as dark brown or black, like Blister's snake/diamond scale pattern (Smolder also possess this). They can also have freckles, as seen with Qibli, and triangles and other shapes on their wings.[4] Their eyes are black.[2]
SandWings are slim dragons with short horns that curve vaguely upward.[2] They have a spike on the tip of their snout[2] and on either sides of their cheeks[2]. They have a large, wavy sail on their back that starts at their snout and ends at their tail.[2] Their tail curls at the end, and at the tip there is a venomous scorpion-like barb. They have forked black tongues, like NightWings.[2]
Abilities
Like some other Pyrrhian tribes, SandWings are able to breathe fire, it is commented that SandWings breathe the hottest fire.[citation needed] They have a sharp, scorpion-like tail barb with deadly venom inside of it. The speed of death depends on how close to the heart the poisoned wound is. After a few days, dragons that have been hit will start to notice blacking of the wound, and extreme pain.[5] The cure to SandWing venom is Brightsting Cactus juice.[6] SandWings gain venom in their tail at around three years of age[7], but the barb has to fully grow first[8], which presumably happens around or before the production of venom. SandWings are able to go for weeks without water and are built for long flights and little food.[4] They emit a natural aura of heat, similar to IceWings radiating cold.[9]
SandWings have animus dragons, with the only living one being Jerboa III, however, she rid Pyrrhia of current animus magic, so she neither has the ability to use her magic, or counter her own spell. The only other animus SandWing is Jerboa, though, Jerboa III froze her in ice.
