#its not really realistic that a clade of non-generalist animals would diversify this much#and its definitely not realistic that theyd be able to hybridize#but hey. its dragons!#icewings are so so so fucked up tho there's no way to make them real animals#and ig in this world vertebrates are hexapodal originally instead of tetrapods#i like the idea of dragons being descended from non-mammal synapsids though. not reptiles but not mammals either! theyre their own thing#i also like the idea of nightwings being marrow eaters/scavengers and stopping bc it becomes impolite/gross in their culture#but then on the volcano they go back to it by necessity and it works for them#ALSO. if theres anything confusing here dont be afraid to send an ask i would love to explain my processes#wof#wings of fire#worldbuilding#wof worldbuilding#speculative biology#my art
