Ancient dentition time! Descriptions under cut~

Aberrations are meant to be an ever-changing species, and mutate slightly each time they return to the cauldron. I imagine each time their dentition would change slightly as well. For this generation, their teeth would be most similar to dinosaurian raptors. They have that long muzzle that velociraptors in particular are well known for, but the number/size of their teeth varies. Each head could have different dentition too; eg. one would have all uniform teeth while the other would have long canines. Unlike velociraptors, Aberrations are omnivorous and will eat anything, but this kind of fits with their whole “becoming stronger” thing.

Aethers are… a tricky species to pin down. They’re cat-moth-dragons with the diet of a small lizard - insects and plants. Although their diet is more similar to geckos, based on their art I think their teeth would be a mix between gecko and domestic cat; they wouldn’t have molars and premolars, but they’d have feline-like front canines and incisors. The rest of their teeth would be enlarged, dragon-ified versions of a gecko’s itty bitty conical teeth.

Auraboas next! Although they definitely were designed more with boas in mind based on the name and their body shape, all boas are nonvenomous. There are some species of constricting snakes that are venomous as well, such as those in the genus Ovophis (mountain pit vipers; found in Asia) and Pseudonaja (Australian elapids), so with all that considered Auraboas probably have a mix of boa and pit viper dentition. They’d have fangs for injecting their venom, and sharp, recurved teeth behind the fangs and on the lower jaw.

Banescales are yet another hard species to assign a real-life counterpart to. They look like what you’d see if you searched up “wyvern” in the dictionary, the perfect quintessential example of one. They eat seafood, insects and meat. Their head shape brings dinosaurs to mind, specifically dromaeosaurs (raptors) and small tyrannosaurs. With all this in mind, I think their teeth would be closely packed and serrated, similar to both dinosaur groups. As shown in their art, they’d also have caniniformes (canine-like teeth). 

Dusthides look like skinks to me, specifically desert skinks and night skinks. Like skinks, Dusthides dig and burrow, and prefer to stay underground. Skinks are insectivorous too, so they’re a perfect match! Dusthides would have conical teeth like skinks, with caniniformes.

Gaolers are a weird mish-mash of different animals. They have moose-like antlers, reptilian faces and feet, and big fluffy tails that really remind me of snow leopards or arctic foxes, not to mention those paw pads on their wings. Since they eat both meat and plants, I think they’re teeth would be like an arctic foxes; one of the only omnivores native to the Arctic circle. Their canines would be larger though, more similar to snow leopards.

Sandsurges, similar to Dusthides, prefer living underground and are expert burrowers. Unlike Dusthides, they can actually swim through the sand. Their behaviour is similar to the sandfish skink, known for its ability to swim through sand. Their fans call to mind several species of sail-backed extinct animals - like dimetrodon - and also the modern basilisk lizard. Lastly, their concept seems to be based off of “sand sharks”; a group of fantasy sharks that swim through sand, but also a real group of mackerel sharks known to swim in shallow waters. However, the dentition of sand sharks doesn't really fit with Sandsurges; these sharks have 3 rows of sharp teeth that stick out in multiple directions, very much unlike the art depicting the dragon. I think the Sandsurge’s dentition would be a mix of basilisk and great white shark; both animals have serrated saw-like teeth. Their diet would be more akin to the basilisk, which eats both meat and insects. They’d also have caniniformes.

Undertides, our serpentine friends, are based off of moray eels! They pull from several species, particularly the ribbon eel (specifically the protrusions on the lower jaw) and the giant moray. They have large razor sharp teeth and, like real moray eels, would have a hidden pharyngeal jaw!

At last we arrive at Veilspuns, which were by far the hardest one for me to figure out. They’re like… fairy kelpie deer dragons?? With their ears, horns and snout shape in mind, I think their molars and premolars would be most similar to the marsh deer of South America. Seeing as they also eat flesh and bugs in addition to plants, they’d also have sharp elongated canines; similar to how kelpies are usually depicted in art. 

Thanks to everyone who put in their input on what Veilspuns most looked like! Deer and horse definitely seem like the two most likely creatures for their inspiration. 

I hope y’all enjoyed this series! I’ve been thinking of doing sheets going into each dragon breed's body plan (and also some headcanons of mine) if that is of any interest! ^^
