My sandwing oc, Rose Quartz! 🩷

[simplegeneral]

Oasis, second of her name, daughter of Burn and granddaughter of Oasis, princess of the sandwings, sole heir of Burn...

Oasis had a difficult dragonethood, her mother's shadow was immense. Burn became an overprotective and controlling mother, so often, in a mirror of her mother herself, though, she also had Sandstorm, a stern and happy fatherly figure, just like Char.

She was a warrior, barely a princess. And her only enjoyment was the war games she had with her parents, growing ever ambitious, of course, at her 10 years old, she saught to end the rebellion conducted by Vulture and Blister, who bombed the palace at the year of her hatching in a terror campaign.

The young princess was, of course, followed by Burn, who learned the hardest way that an impulsive mind led to her mother's demise, she would not let happen ever again, not to her own daughter.

As soon as Oasis and her forces breached Vulture's stronghold, she found Blister, who tried to smooth talk her niece to no avail. Quickly running out of options, Blister threw a box with a dragonbite viper at Oasis, who was bitten.

Burn arrived immediately and terrified of what she saw, axed and ripped off her own daughter's limb to prevent the venom from further spreading to her body, carrying her back home as Oasis fainted from blood loss.

Later she would receive a prosthesis of a leg to restore her life to nomalcy the best they could, a sight not uncommon in the post-war sand queendom, where Burn had opened a manufactory to build those for all the war veterans in need.

Oasis fell into silence for a long time afterwards, refusing to even look or listen to her mother, but Burn's character made obviously such thing would not work, as she snarled louder and so she listened.

In her 12th hatchingday, Burn had passed away only a few months before due to an untreatable infection, leaving all but one letter to the new queen of the sandwings:

"Daughter of mine and future queen of the sandwings. Oasis. If you opened this letter, I have passed away, back towards the sands of time, time for Onyx to judge me for who I was and what I did.

Hard as it may have been, I do not depart this world a bloodthirst and bitter dragon, but one ever more hopeful than I ever was. You were the shining beacon of hope I had since you came out of the egg, and in my heart's deepest wishes, I wanted you to know that.

We have not talked much with each other in those last two years, me being sick in bed and you angry at me for what I did to you, but know that I do not regret in the slightest, we had no time for you to seek a healer, I either did that or I would have lost you, and believe me my daughter, your life is far more precious than mine will ever be.

I did so many horrible things, my daughter, that only my death will bring any closure to many souls. But you, you have hatched pure and as a new beginning for all of us, really, if you do not follow my steps, than I am glad, my daughter, I beg you not to, war games are fun, but war is not, it will take everything from you, and when I was there, there was nowhere else left to go but begin anew.

Even if I may be gone, your father still there, old and bulky as ever, he is the most kind and friendly dragon I ever met, a good soul and I know you like him more than me, and I am fine with that, listen to him, please.

And Sunny, please listen to her. I have assigned she was your adviser, she may be annoying at times, but she will brighten your day and guide you towards a more hopeful future, for all of us.

Thank you, my daughter. I know your heart is dark and bitter towards me, that night haunts me as much as it does to you, but if I could tell you one thing face to face, there's healing for it, not of your leg, but of your soul and mind, you can fight it, I know it and you know it too, if I could rise again from the lowest point of my life, you can too.

You can never be free of it, but you can remain yourself despite of it. Would you really tell me this would stop you? Did you stopped participating in our war game events because of it? No, the last two years you were there and we both were happy despite of that.

I hope you see what I mean. We had two delightful years together that would have not happened if you weren't there, with me. You didn't need to talk to me for me to be happy for the simple fact that you were here, alive and recovering.

Rise up and be stronger than I ever was, but also, be wiser than I never could be.

Goodbye, my daughter,

Ex-queen Burn."

WOF Dragonet Lines!

Hi there! I want to remind you that I have detailed lines of dragonets, you can buy them here:

BUY LINES HERE: https://boosty.to/laweema

You can purchase my lines on Boosty (This is the most convenient way for me, I also have Hipolink and a card of Kazakhstan, but there may be problems with it. If you need another payment method, please write me msg.) To do this, buy a post with a dragon you like for $ 0.6, or the whole set for just $4.99 (It saves $1.60!), and then you will receive the files that are in the purchased post. And also write me your nicknames from the sites where you are either in tumblr or Boosty. This is necessary because I keep a list of base owners so that I don't have any questions if I see you on another site.

And now a little bit about the lines:

There are as many as 11 bases in the pack with all the tribes + Beetlewings in my design. All lines have fill layers for quick painting. All the lines have complex lights and shadows, which makes them a little more realistic, and will also help to integrate into the art if you want to make a composition!

Last Tribe A Day run cycle was today so I decided to combine them all to show the differences!

ID under the cut

[ID: Seven sketchy animated run cycles, all of the original dragon tribes from Wings of Fire. They alternate sides as they go down, starting with the top one on the left and the second on the right, and so on. The background is a blank white. Each dragon has shaded limbs to help see the differences while in movement. The right wing is the darkest shade, followed by the left wing (closest to the screen), the the right legs are the lightest shaded. Descriptions are in order from top to bottom:

Mudwing: Drawn in a dark red. The thickest dragon by far, opening is mouth in a smile as its front legs hit the ground. Its large wings have four toes as if they were a third set of talons, which is used as another set of legs while running. The wings lift off after the back legs. The entire body bobs with its weight while it runs, lunging with its back legs. One of its back legs disappears while it runs (oopsies) and its large tail flicks with the run.

Skywing: Drawn in a darker red. Much skinnier dragon with longer limbs and larger wings. Its large wings remain slight open above its border, slightly bobbing as it moves. The body itself doesn’t move up and down, instead just twisting with movement of its limbs. Its tail is a little stiff, again just moving up and down. As it runs, one foot touches and leaves the ground at a time.

Icewing: Drawn in a dark blue. Its body and shape is ridgid, its head swooping up and down like it lunges with every time its front talons land. Again, its wings are used as a third pair of legs, however they are mostly used after the other limbs are mid-air. Its talons are visibly sharper, as well as its wings. Sharp spines on the back of its neck and end of its tail are visible as well, which bobs with the movement.

Seawing: Drawn in a dark blue. A thicker, long dragon with short but thick limbs and webbed frills along its spine and sternum. It’s thick tail continues the up and down curve it’s body makes with every move, flicking the end of the frills as it does. Its wings are semi open above its body, bobbing with the running movement and tilting up and down as its spine curves.

Sandwing: Drawn in a warm brown. Long limbs but thicker than skywing. All four feet lift of the air when they’re closest during the run, each foot hitting the ground one at a time. It’s barbed scorpion-like tail bobs up and down at the end. Its wings are folded and stuff near its shoulders, tilted diagonally. A solid frill lines its spine, biggest at the back of its neck and above the back legs.

Nightwing: Drawn in a dark purple grey, and by far the stiffest run cycle. Thick body with short but thinner legs than mudwings or seawings. Spikes line the spine all along its body, longest at the back of the neck and back of the body. Its wings are held stiffly and slightly folded over its body. Other than the legs and tail, most of the nightwing barely moves as it runs, and its legs hit the ground in pairs, front legs then back legs. They don’t even cross between each other at the closest part in the run. Its mouth opens and closes as it runs, not in any particular expression, I was just bored.

Rainwing: Drawn in a muted dark green. By far the bounciest run. It has a thin body and a head I accidentally drew a little big. It’s three-toed wings are used as a third pair of legs, used most right before it’s front legs hit the ground. Its front legs hit the ground at different time, however the back legs hit and leave together. Its tail is by far the longest, curled at the end and slightly unraveling as it flicks up and down. Beneath the curved horns is a frill with two connections that slight opens and closes with the movement. It’s grin also opens and closes with the movement.

I've been wanting to redesign Sandwings since I watched Dune part two, that movie got me obsessed with Sandwings and I decided to draw them for a school project.

anatomy- sandwings are quite short compared to other tribes. they have flat bodies covered in spikes similar to thorny devils. they have large barbed tails, the stinger is strong enough to break through bone. Sandwings wings have large feather like structures that can join and separate at will, once separated they will create a rattling sound, sandwings will often rattle their wings as a sign of anger or fear.

unlike other tribes sandwings have partial hairs on their bodies. these are most notable in hatchlings who are covered head to tail in dark micro hairs which are used to protect parasites from digging under their scales. they also have whiskers which can detect changes in weather.

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: 👇

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.
