Wyirkam

The Wyirkam (WAA-YER-KEM) are the name given to the Dragon species. As with much of popular folklore, dragons are generally large, heavily scaled, reptilian creatures, who can usually breathe fire and are capable of flight. In Rangaidon, only a fraction of the Wyirkam have these characteristics, but are still powerful, and feared by most of the other races.

They inhabit the northern area of the planet, in the Droukka Realm and the Wragia Kingdom.

They are good allies with the Dracotaur, and often visit each other.

Appearance & Traits
The "typical" Wyirkam resemble a Fire dragon. The Dragons' appearance revolves around being "assigned" an Element of nature: Fire, Water, Nature, Earth, Lightning, Ice, and Wind.

Wyirkam have variable sizes, appearances and abilities depending on the "Element" a dragon is born with. Most of them have a extremely thick hide of either scales, leather, or fur, or a combination of them across their bodies. Spikes and horns are seen through their kind, while only some have claws and teeth that can be used as deadly weapons. Some "subspecies" have shining, glowing eyes. Wings, however, are only held by a fraction of the population, although some can use magic to fly to replace such said limbs.

Only some Dragons lay eggs. Dragons that have a furry or a very sleek body will not lay eggs, but those who are more alike Western (European) dragons are more likely to lay an egg. Baby Wyirkam are already born quite large and powerful, and fully capable of living in the wild without their families.
