Hello! I saw your post on your opinions and you brought up many interesting questions on Mudwing society, so I'm curious: what responsibilities do you think are placed on a bigwigs? DO they suffer consequences for their siblings actions, are they seen as de facto leaders for their troops? Id love to hear any ideas you have on generic or specific inter-sibling dynamics/responsibility, even if it's not related to my question.

(If you'd like, I am fully willing to read a full on rant/essay on this/whatever you want to answer with. Mudwings deserve better and I always love seeing other people's creative stuff/fun ideas!)

In canon im going to be honest, im not sure: Tui has woefully underdeveloped them, The Guide To The Dragon World is coming out in seven billion years, so i might write paragraphs upon paragraphs to be hit in the face with a canon contradiction years down the line

So, to give you the essay you truly deserve im going to apply these questions to my Flying Postal Companies edition of Pyrrhia. Essencially ''the same world as canon'', except for the fact that i have gotten my grubby little worldbuilding fingers all over it and happened to create 200+ ocs in the process of doing so.

Mudwings, from the ages newly hatched to seven years old, dont really have the concept of a Bigwings outside Record Keepers noting down who hatched first.

The second they become adults in the eyes of mudwing community, the Bigwings becomes of great importance. Bigwings are often seen as the de-facto leader of the bunch, despite how they may have been raised, and have responsiblities surrounding the upkeep and stability of the sibling group as a whole.

This can manifest as: Being the manager or being placed in a bookkeeping role in a family busniess, being a slightly higher rank than their siblings in military postions, being the ones to primiarily guide or raise dragonets even if said children are not thiers, or breaking up sibiling fights and other acts of emotional labour

The most important role a Bigwings can play in Mudwing culture is: Keeping the sibling group together.

No matter what. Mudwing culture shames distant or sepertated siblings, whether that be beacuse a sibling has died, a sibling has become a criminal, or the group as a whole have different goals in life, and have seperated to go achieve them.

The Bigwings is often to blame for these happenings by other mudwings, and the amount of societal pressure can push said bigwings to horrible mindsets and drastic actions to live up to the standard presented.

Often the current Queen and her siblings will be used as the standard to live up to.

Unfortunately, as sibling groups are insular, and no outsider sees it fit to intervene as long as said siblings are 'together', this can sometimes create abusive enviroments that victims find it incredibly hard to leave.

Hello small, frosty, cyan Slugcat! What are you doing in such a dangerous area? Do you know where you are right now? Do you have a name? …also, is that a Karma Flower on your crown?

Halfway there with all these Spearmasters, all have which have been an absolute blast to draw!

Again, credits under cut - let me know if I have made any mistakes with the @'s!

IM GONNA ANSWER THIS BECAUSE THESE R GOOD QUESTIONS /lh @randomfaeriedragon

leafwings are bipedal because they sort of didn't really need big, bulky limbs for climbing trees quickly. it wastes precious energy to build so much muscle in the arms for something that can already be done by the hind limbs so effectively. dragons climbing trees are already rear-wheel drive if that makes sense, leafwings just evolved to be even faster at it by taking away excess weight, and building that on their legs instead.

so they have very, very strong legs, and they need them for the power and momentum of getting up high. their arms have the bonus of maneuvering through that, and getting a good grip to stay attached to a surface.

so their arms are useful in climbing, but mostly as stabilizers! not really as the climbing force itself.

but yknow also its just super cool lmao

Hello local group! I have a few questions:

How many pearls does VSH have, and what's their favorite pearl?

How are HA and STB doing?

Can HA read pearls? If so, do the pearls on their circlet or braclet say anything? (Also, can I give them a hug through this overseer?)

Do STB's antenna pearls say anything?

Would anyone appreciate a pet lantern mouse? One seems lost and I'm trying to find it a home.

That is all. Thank you!

[VSH : There's plenty others that I'm fond of though. Hard choice!]

[HA: Aaaaree-- Is this huggg? Nnnew. . .]

[STB : Nothing too special, but they are still nice to keep around for remembrance.]

[RI: I, I promise I can take care of it!! I won't hurt it!! This lil guy here, they can, they can have a friend! We can all be friends! All three of us!]

@randomfaeriedragon

Go ahead!! steal the headcanon as you please >:D

RainWings can be bipedal, and often are, being related to LeafWings by some common ancestor or something. RainWings mostly choose to be quad though unless theyre doing activities that require hands, like weaving flowers into worn decoration, making tranq darts, that sort of thing. I hope that makes sense oog
