Dual-Elemental Monster: Wyvern
Posted: Mon Jun 21, 2021 2:32 pm
Okay, so ever since the Mandrake was considered as a dual-elemental Fire/Poison monster (which was reduced to a Fire monster because Robby felt the poison damage would be a bit much at the time, although the Mandrake wound up being underpowered as a result), I wanted to give dual-elemental monsters a shot. As a result, I've opted to put a bit of effort into this guy: the Wyvern.:
I gave the wyvern both fire and poison attacks because not only can wyverns be associated with poison, but they do have the potential of breathing fire like any other fantasy dragon. I've based this thing mostly on mythical and DnD descriptions, hence why I sized the thing the way I did.
Here are its parts:
And here are the sounds I've made for the Wyvern out of my own voice:

Now this guy will be a little tricky. Given his expected positioning (post-Moonchyllus), dual-elementality, and stats, I'll have to ramp him up big-time. Here goes.:
HP: 640
Defense: 45
Power: 125
Poison Damage: 5
Fire Power: 105
EXP: 130 (calculated)
Weight: 2000 lbs/907.2 kg (based on DnD's measurements)
Eliapedia Entry: Wyverns were a fairly-recent creation of mine that made use of both fire and poison. The wyvern's venomous bites and tail jabs aren't as strong as Scorpee venom, but they do the job when it comes to hunting prey and defending itself from predators. I should note that the wyvern is mostly a scavenger, although it will opportunistically eat small prey like squishers, fish and birds. While it naturally produces venom, its fiery breath gains a slightly poisonous touch thanks to its diet of rotting carcasses. It may use its clawed feet to crush or slice through bone, allowing it to eat the nutrient-rich bone marrow within. Thanks to its versatility, the wyvern is one of few creatures that can stand up to scorpees, who are already top-tier predators. I wouldn't know how anyone would be willing to go up against a defensive wyvern and its fiery breath; its flames can reach 1200 degrees Celsius. Plenty of creatures will get burnt to a crisp at that heat.
