Do you think WOF dragons have last names?
I like this question a lot!
I could see it extending into some tribes, but perhaps not being exclusive to all. Interesting one to approach!
Mudwings, for example, don’t have any strong ties to parents, so last names likely wouldn’t hold much weight being passed down. But it would be fascinating if they formed troop names that would essentially act in place of their last name.
I also like the idea that Nightwings can change their first name to fit with their current identity/occupation (if they wish), and their former name could become a last name of sorts.
Icewings & Seawings seem like the type to have distinct last names due to their royal family lines staying mostly consistent throughout.
Skywings & Sandwings feel like they’d receive last names based on great achievements, as status symbols. Getting a last name is an honor, perhaps they do ceremonies for granting this?
Rainwings may do simple nicknames or color themed last names based on their main scale patterns.
Regardless, just for funsies, here’s what I think the first arc’s last names would hypothetically be in this universe. I’d love to hear your or anyone’s own ideas on this!
Arc 1:
Clay Broadhorn (Mudwings may base last names on their common physical characteristics as a troop)
Tsunami Rippleroar (Water related, tough sounding for a lineage of royalty)
Glory Lightbloom (A last name Glory adopts as Queen when her fellow Rainwings comment on her scales ‘blossoming’ gradually with more suntime, like a flower taking in its first spring.)
Starflight Scrollsort (Assigns himself his own last name based on his occupation at Jade Mountain, and his love of scrolls being a key part of his life)
Sunny Thornsage (Based not only on a desert plant, but on the ‘Sage’ wisdom of choosing Queen Thorn in place of the warring Sandwing Sisters)

WOF tribe Merchant/Trading booth concepts:
Hey folks! This one was the recent winner of this WOF poll, so here’s my concept art that headcannons trading in Pyrrhia.
Read below cut for close-ups of the individual booths + the thought process / headcannons behind the design choices: 👇
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/366d413a5c6da30fc26815dbba6b7dff/73c370cfc7ac9897-80/s540x810/511394598c3450315a9bcc6e70905886b532d781.jpg)
Skywings: The Sky Kingdom’s mountain ranges provide plenty of pasture for raising sheep. As such, Skywing shepherds benefit from traveling to sell their wool, dyes, fabric, and woven tapestries. Many of these merchant tables also include herbs grown exclusively in the mountains, or ibex drinking horns that can be strapped on a dragon’s shoulder & carried in flight.
Along with goods, Skywing merchants may offer sewing services to fix tears, burn marks, or other fabric damage. They are sought out for their quality clothing, and most fabric across Pyrria originated from a Skywing’s talons.

Mudwings: Mudwings’ abundant food & cooking skills are envied almost anywhere in Pyrrhia. Their swamps have fertile soil, responsible for hosting diverse crops which can be purchased as produce at merchant stalls. For those lucky enough to find a traveling Mudwing merchant, the promise of a delicious dish can be whipped up and served at the stall in no time. Along with produce goods, Mudwings sell weaved baskets, spices, and cooking ware.

Sandwings: Sandwing booths offer luxuries of the desert: It’s most common to find accessories such as gold carved jewelry or musical instruments such as drums, lyres, & mandolins for sale. Though, even more sought out across Pyrrhia is Sandwing tattoos/piercings, which are done within the merchant areas. Ink etchings on papyrus paper are stationed outside their tents to showcase designs. All which can be selected, and poked into the skin with a tapping stick and plant dye ink by a trained talon.

Seawings: SeaWings sell a variety of ocean related goods; taking a share in the fish market with Icewings. Outside of food, there are den decorations like driftwood carvings, accessories such as seashell & pearl jewelry, and rope nets weaved by expert Seawing sailors. Some Seawings even sell fishing equipment, canoes, or offer sailor knot tying instructions to curious dragon buyers.

Nightwings: During the war, it was near impossible to find a Nightwing merchant. Most refused to participate in merchant territory, mostly as a way to keep up with their tribe’s mysterious nature.
Though in the more shady, unground parts of the market you can buy from a huge selection of obsidian weaponry, the sharpest in Pyrrhia. No one knew initially how Nightwings smithed so many weapons, or why, until their secret volcano kingdom and the intention to invade the rainforest was discovered. Then forging armor & weapons became clear. Along with a vast armory, for the right price, some Nightwing merchants offer Prophecies & Nightwing Literature (not always guaranteed to always be reliable) and assassin services as well (very reliable).

Rainwings: Though Rainwings haven’t been part of Pyrrhia trading for years, they have a vast hold on dragon medicine. An apothecary of herbs, salves, and remedies are all offered for various ailments due to the rainforest’s abundant resources. Along with medicinal goods, many Rainwings are fruit vendors, promising to any hesitant meat-eating dragons that such an array of flavors isn’t to be missed. Though, their fruit selling pitches often fall flat to most other predominantly meat-eating tribes.

Icewings: Icewings have everything a dragon could need to brace the cold, with a selection of goods only found in the most frigid regions of Pyrrhia. Furs, bone jewelry, and fresh fish (thanks to frost breath) are served on ice. Though Icewings themselves don’t require fur to withstand the cold, it’s considered fashionable and common in upper ranks to wear fur as a status symbol. Since metal is hard to smith without fire & in cold temperatures, fur and bone are more accessible to Icewings for clothing statements.

I used to pride myself on carrying as few objects as possible on my person (I think this stemmed from a rebellion against my family's tendency to keep buying me purses and cosmetics in a futile hope that it would spark some kind of latent femininity in me). Keys (mandatory), wallet (if leaving the neighborhood), and phone (optional, but hard to part with).
Recently I have been exploring a sort of butch maximalism with my everyday carry and have realized that I have been so, so wrong about this. Carrying a bunch of objects with you rules. You want snacks? I got em. Have a headache? I got your tylenol right here. Need a knife? Who do you think I am. Of course I have a knife. Better living through pockets full of junk.
