I return! This is Dunechaser they/them, a sand-rain hybrid. Wasn't sure about the background for the headshot, so I put both of them.
Dunechasers parents met about a year before the Sandwing Succession War, their mom was a textile merchant, and their father was a curious rainwing, leaving the rainforest to see Pyrrhia and the other kingdoms. They hit it off and had Dunechaser. They lived in Possibility during the beginning of the war as neither of Dunechasers parents wanted to do anything with the war. Sometime after the prophecy of the dragonets were given and the nightwing tunnel was made, Dunechaser's father wanted to visit the rainforest and his old freinds and family and introduce them to his wife and child. Dunechaser and their mother agreed, and Dunechasers father went ahead to make visiting arrangements as Dunechaser and their mom closed up the shop. When Dunechasers father did not return, they figured they were ahead of time and would go to the rainforest to surprise him. Dunechasers fathers freinds were more than happy to greet his wife and kid. However, while he arrived and made arrangements, he left a while ago to take his family there. Dunechaser and their mom were considered at first, but not so much as they both knew their father could take care of himself, they probably just missed him while flying over and it was a good thing they left a note incase something like this happened. By the end of the week, there was still no sign, and they searched for Dunechasers' father. Unknown to them, he accidentally found the nightwing tunnel and the branch leading to the bightwing kingdom and was killed by a guard. After weeks of searching, Dunechasers mother went back to her shop in Possibility with the knowledge he had most likely been killed in some fight due to the war. Dunechaser didn't want to give up and instead continued the search and helping others along the way, this eventually lead to them joining the Outclaws as in their opinion the Talons of Peace were too focused on the prophecy and not enough on the people caught in the crossfire. When the war ended, Dunechaser like many others followed Queen Thorn and works in the Sandwing Stonghold now, and while Dunechaser oftin visits their mother they have only visited the rainforest again once as it reminds them too much about how they never did find out what happened to their father.
Dunechaser has only a limited form of color changing scales, capable of a wide range of yellows and browns and some dull greens, pinks, and reds. They, however, do have both rainwing venom and sandwing venom, just not where it should be. Their bite can release the sandwing venom and can oddly enough shoot out rainwing venom from their tail similar to some species of scorpions. Both Dunechaser and their parents were unaware of this until Dunechaser bit a kid in a fight, and the kid was poisoned and a week later Dunechaser was experimenting to see if their tail could do anything and they accidentally shot a tree.
That's all my headcanons for Dunechaser. If you want to know more or have a question, ask, and I'll either clarify or make something up.

Luxaeterna, a participant in the first true battle of the war between the Rainwings and Icewings, the Battle of Stolen Light. Her venom-fangs were torn out by an Icewing poacher, and after surviving and avoiding capture, replaced them with harder gemstone teeth. She’s well known for the number of Icewing skulls she’s impaled throughout the war. She is Boomslang and Quetzal’s great aunt. Postwar, she has been reunited with her living grandnephew and accompanies him for scale retrieval in the Ice and Sky Kingdoms.
Tumblr media
Quetzal in his last moments before being murdered by an Icewing poacher. He had sold Boomslang’s egg to the Icewings in the hopes of gaining immunity from the scale trade- but he learned far too late that a bargain can’t be kept with someone who wants to wear your skin.

Does anyone else yawn and when they do, little droplets of spit/saliva fly out like I’m a rainwing spitting acid/venom, or is that just me?

Question do you ever plan to draw the weapons that are in this au for example. In my opinion skywings mainly use planes and sand wings, tanks and so on.
gonna be honest, i've contemplated it and i just don't know what their weapons would be. i like your ideas, i think they make sense. best i've come up with is that skywing soldiers have flamethrowers, a la din djarin from star war?
also i have no experience drawing weapons and honestly, i don't want to learn

I vote the skywings. Their kingdom is quite literally the USA of Pyrrhia, its a vast territory with fertile land and mountain ores, they could shut themselves out of the world and live in complete autarky.
Those resources, of course, also make me think they would boost the largest population of Pyrrhia and could send endless hordes against their enemies for who knows how long.
We also see, even if implied in the skywing wingery that their youth is extremely militarized since hatching, so even skywing citizens have some level of combat training and are more than ready to be conscripted into the army.
In an all out war between the tribes (including pantala tribes) who would win? NO Hive Mind, NO animus magic, NO Nightwing abilities. Just raw, natural abilities and strengths.

if we all pray to the moons enough maybe this can happen to all other royals as well please

So to quickly recap what happened for those who aren't in the Sky Kingdom
The Dragonets of Destiny (YES THEY'RE REAL) had been captured by Queen Scarlet and forced to fight in her arena
One of the dragons with the destiny dragonets is a RainWing, who Scarlet kept on display
Queen Scarlet's champion, Peril, just activated the Champion's Shield when there was some drama between her finding out a prisoner was her mother
Scarlet made Peril fight the MudWing destiny dragonet
She hyped it up to make it this big fight and even invited Princess Burn over to watch
Fight happens
Nothing is going on and the two are mainly yelling at each other (personal drama between them???)
Scarlet yells at them to get back to killing each other
RainWing BREAKS FROM CHAINS and HITS SCARLET WITH VENOM
Entire arena is in panic and everyone leaves because Holy Scavengers the queen is dead
I'm currently writing this right after hearing dragons coming back to the villages. Oh my god I can't believe this she's finally dead
🃏 rhodubillite
I should probably also mention that Burn PUSHED SCARLET INTO THE VENOM!!! The venom would've hit her but she GRABS Scarlet and uses her to defend herself!! Burn killed Scarlet!

A Game of Thrones inspired RainWing! Very elusive, and one of the smallest dragon species known, the largest of which only growing about the size of an elephant. They are found deep inside massive jungles, hidden in the trees with their color shifting scales, and will see you long before you see them. RainWings are the most timid dragons, typically shying away from any humans they come across, and they’re not aggressive unless provoked. Remember, they’re more scared of you than you are of them! A scared RainWing will spit an acid-like venom from their fangs, deadly enough to kill a man in minutes, or leave you horrifically scarred. Due to their smaller size and lack of fire breathing capabilities, they are not much use in war. They can be ridden if you’re determined, but they do not bond to their riders. The few raised in captivity are mainly used as symbols of status and wealth, only owned by the most powerful lords and kings.

Finally finishing all these guys we’ve got charts and headcanons! (Long post)
Tumblr media
(Height)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Wingspan)
Tumblr media
(Body length & basic shapes I used) (it might be odd but ignore any detail on the back, the shapes are for general body shape)
Headcanons:
Seawings: - Colors range from red and purple to yellow - Aquatic is based off areas of bioluminescence rather than singular scales (because no one wants to draw all of those) - Although they average small compared to the other tribes, gigantism is more common - Wing bioluminescence gene is always present but for some doesn't show, thus aquatic doesn't utilize the wings
Rainwings: - Can change the texture of their scales alongside color - Weakest bite due to their fangs, probably why they're vegetarian - Mimic interesting behaviors - Have forked tongues
Mudwings: - Colors range from olive green to purple-ish red - Very resilient - Able to breathe fire regardless of body temperature, the heat of the flame depends on body temp - Their horns constantly grow and sometimes have to be cut due to dangerous growing patterns - Love gnawing on things, tough foods like jerky is popular - The horn covers of fallen siblings are harvested and turned into instruments to remember them by
Leafwings: - Colors range from gold to teal (and pink to olive green during cold seasons) - Can appear to have false eyes - Bug-like just like the other Pantalan residents (because they're just some weird outlier like what is going on here) - Leafspeak doesn't actually allow them to hear voices from plants but rather increase the sensitivity of their antennae which pick up on the changes in plants - In colder seasons, regions that have deciduous trees influence leafwings in that their scales change into warm tones similar to fallen leaves for camouflage but this also negatively impacts one's leafspeak ability; this doesn't apply to evergreen leafwings however
Hivewings: - Colors range from hot pink to olive green - Can appear to have false eyes - Have elbowed antennae just like their "cousins", Hymenoptera (wasps, bees, ants) - Tend to disregard personal space/get close out of habit, being close means better temp regulation and better communication - All hivewings have stingers, wrist stingers, and a venomous bite but it largely depends on preference of which they choose and like muscles, they can be exercised to become deadly weapons - They're not capable of "emitting a horrible stench"
Icewings: - Colors range from white to pale indigo - Melanism is still very rare but more likely in icewings - Can be iridescent in any color, especially visible in lighter scaled individuals - The scales on their face is very fine and is flushed with blood which darkens the area and allows them to see in the snow by absorbing light, otherwise the glare from the sun reflecting off would be a hinderance - Their wings are thin and thus have visible veins most of the time - Idk how to describe their scales other than its kinda like basalt formations - From the side they appear large but are actually thin and flexible - They can freeze to death if they've gone without cold for a long time and then reintroduced too quickly - In hybridization, they have dominant genes, partially because the animus gene - The extra mane of horns can appear randomly on the body in singular spikes, they also make a clink sound when they collide as if they're made of ice, making a pretty scary rattle when disturbed
Nightwings: - Colors range from orange to purple - Albinism is still very rare but more likely in nightwings - Dwarfism is more common - Teardrop scales are always present, highlighted when the dragon has powers regardless of type - Pitbull ready to bite kids - They CAN hang upside down as the books suggest but not for long - By taking dust baths, they dull their scales to reflect less light and blend in better in the dark - Have white fire but cant breathe for long due to how hot it is (this is mainly to add onto the mysterious factor of em and I always liked the idea) - Due to eye sensitivity, they hate sudden bright lights and will close their eyes as they breathe fire
Silkwings: - Can have black or dark accents but never as a whole body color unless they've hybridized - Wing shapes vary widely - Can appear to have false eyes - Flamesilk is rarer than one might think - Very flexible and have strong tails used as a sort of 5th limb in climbing - Albino or melanistic dragons still keep their iridescence - Silk is emitted through a spinneret on the chin rather than the wrists - Prefer to travel in pairs (instinct)
Sandwings: - Colors range from red to olive green - Dark patters often mimic a snake's - Horse-like in complexion - Alongside their snake-like appearance, they have pit organs - Tend to move like birds - Poor eyesight but good hearing - Their horns angle upwards sort of like a bull
Skywings: - Colors range from red to yellow (and green because skywings are meant to be your typical fire breathing dragon which is most often depicted to be red but can also be green) - Tend to move like birds - Weaker than they appear - Green skywings are incapable of being or having flamescales - Their horns constantly grow and have to be filed down - A flamescale cant melt rock or metal by touch alone, only via fire is it possible - It's not that they don't want flamescales that they kill them, it's more of a mercy killing because of how lonely their life can be

I’ve been getting really into my silly little fantribe from when I was 13 so allow me to rant at you about them for a while
Tumblr media
They’re called TripWings, they’re a snake based tribe closely related to RainWings who produce a venom from their fangs with psychedelic effects. Royal and noble Trips have hoods, but most of the tribe does not.
Tumblr media
Because they’re closely related to RainWings, they also mostly possess very bright and colourful scale patterns like tropical snakes, although some come in duller tones
Here’s their current Queen, Regalis, and her husband Copperhead. I love Regalis a LOT, I used to doodle her all the time when I was a kid
Tumblr media
Expect to see more of them I’m very trip brained at the moment
if you would like to make your own I have an f2u base for them on my ko-fi

Rainwings Reference
Rainwings Reference
Fins:
Many types of fins
Used for expressions and hearing.
Even more styles then shown and there is no real rhythm or reason for the different appearances.
*Hooded is based on place of attachment. Hooded fins attach at the ears and extent down to the middle of the throat. Can be combined with other fin types.
Skin and Texture Mimicry:
Rainwings have very soft skin compared to the other tribes.
This soft, malleable skin and be manipulated by the Rainwing to take on many shapes much like a cuttlefish.
Rainwings’ skin (by an account of Nightwing researchers) is startlingly stretchy. Getting a proper grip is difficult. Removed skin loses its ability to change color or shape and turn an unpleasant grey color.
Color Expression:
Rainwings have the ability to turn any color that they can perceive. *More colors than humans can see
Colors are assigned to certain emotions, but context is also very important. Colors, just like words, can have double meanings and some combos make a more complicated expression.
Expression Colors show first on the face and the bigger the emotion further the color takes over a Rainwings’ base color. (Base color is the Rainwings’ favorite or preferred color and pattern.)
Blue (Bright)- Smugness or confident
Blue (Dark)- Sadness
Purple- In amor or Pride
Pink-Pleased
Red-Anger
Orange-Warning, frustration
Yellow- Alarm, excitement, hunger
Green (Bright)- Fear, startled
Green (Dark)- Envy or Jealousy or Tried
Black- Pain, Depression, Illness
Grey- Closed off, bored, being dead serious…or being dead.
Make sure to remember that context matters. Just because a Rainwings’ favorite color is red doesn’t mean that they are constantly angry. Genuine emotion is often a quick flash across the face much like human eyebrows. Rainwings can color how much or how little emotion they show, and some are better at it than others.
Extra:
Rainwing hands have thick and grippy pads on the fingers and palms. (They look like beans) Hands are different than the other tribes with the middlemost fingers being the same length and the other two acting like thumbs.
Wing talon is very long and strong, acting like a second pair of arms. A dragon might be able to hang in the trees with just their wings.
Have some of the fastest reflexes out of all the tribes. A Rainwing could spit before another dragon would even form a thought about breathing. (It’s a good thing they’re pacifist.)
Despite or because of their soft skin they have a far better healing factor. Wounds that might be permanent or deadly are recoverable for them. Damage that would take another dragon months takes a Rainwing weeks. (With them being in good health and having plenty of sunlight.)
Rainwing Venom is really an acid. Adult dragons have stronger acid and the older the dragon the more powerful it becomes. Dragonet’s acid is still painful, however, if a little less deadly. A bigger issue is young dragons also have less control and instead of spitting they will spray acid everywhere if frightened. (Testimony from a Nightwing researcher.)

Welcome back to Overcomplicating the Pyrrhian Tribes! This week: the beloved RainWings!!
You know what's up. Joy Ang and Tui are so cool and I am just me.
Details and explanation below!
Otherwise, next week are the chilly IceWings! See you then!!!
More overcomplicated dragons.
I knew the RainWings would be really important, and I think they turned out the best of all the ones I've done. I think they're my favourite because they are basically the perfect mix of extra realism spice without altering Joy's design too much. The SkyWing design is awesome and I love it to bits, but it is one of the two that are the farthest from canon.
As for the RainWing.... I had. So. Much. FUN. I heavily used chameleons and snakes - they're basically the two main species on my research board - but there is a dash of cuttlefish and frilled lizard in there. Where, you ask? Well if you look closely, all over the RainWing are little tiny flecks of darker colour. I found a beautiful reference of a close-up on a cuttlefish eye. Its skin is dotted in thousands of little marks and I thought that would be perfect for the RainWing, who can camouflage just as well as them. I don't know if it's been discussed in canon but I bet they could animate their scales more than just colour shifting - cuttlefish are known for using their rapidly shifting patterns to hypnotize prey. RainWings could do it too, sort of like Ka from Disney's 2D animated Jungle Book.
Speaking of Ka - snakes. I love snakes. The head structure of the RainWing here is very smooth and rounded with muscles based on snakes like the python. I was even going to originally draw them in a venom striking pose and got as far as completing the lineart, but ultimately decided it wouldn't fit the calm portraits of the other tribes.
Will you see it in the future? Hell yeah! Pure, unhinged, magical death spit. Looking at it now I might try to alter it to be a full piece of Glory attacking Scarlet or Crocodile.
In the striking pose you can see the frills much better, but I still took my time on this serene pose (this is where the frilled lizard influence comes in). If you notice that I've drawn every scale (every single scale) then, yes, I am insane. If you didn't know that yet, you know it now. You have to draw guide lines and follow them meticulously while you wonder why you don't make a scale brush, and then cry because you know the randomness and imperfections that come from drawing a thousand circles is how it looks natural. The eye area is actually my favourite part, since drawing dragon eyelids was the original inspiration for doing this. Did I mention that? I wanted to draw eyelids.
EYELIDS.
I digress. Besides the eyelids, I like the frills on the action pose, but this pose is where I like the body scales more. When zooming in on my chameleon colour refs, I noticed the very rhythmical distribution of their scales and figured I would give it a try. They actually do have extra large circular scales along their bodies, which is where I guess the canon RainWing design gets it from. Very clever, Joy!
Anyway, on this version, those small circular scales appear on the face. Not only that, but I added a bit of influence from the snouts of my ref chameleons by extending the nose bridges to wrap around the nose horn. They blend in so seamlessly and that's the reason why I love this design - it's subtle, barely there, mostly Joy but a little extra.
Wow, I talk too much. If you're here, thank you! It's not mandatory to read, but very appreciated. I heard once that visitors at an art gallery look at each piece an average of 2-3 seconds. Or was it 3-6? Idk, but it was shockingly short, and ever since then I've tried to encourage myself to pay more respect to other artists and glean their work for little details I skip after that quick glance. I could talk so much more about these designs but that would be like an hour long video, each, lol. If you have questions about anything, ask away!

#7 - Rainwing chapter
Ah yes, the Rainwings, a.k.a. "the ones where my friends will disown me if I get them wrong". I ended up making some changes here; particularly with Coconut, who is depicted as green in the graphic novels but described as lavender in the books. I tried to do something with elements from both. This had a bit of a knock-on effect on Siamang, because having two purples in the set seemed a bit lame for a group that's supposed to be really vibrant and colorful, so I went a bit off-script there. This is the result; I hope it is palatable.
Also, that makes 36. 36 dragons.
