#fireworm queen

Fireworm/Fireworm Queen

Lifespan: 60 - 80 years

Diet: Honeycomb

Fire type: Napalm-like gel

Closest relative: Thunderpede

Predators: Cavern crashers and Whispering Deaths (mostly a danger to the eggs and the males)

----

The Queen only produces fertilized eggs and therefore reproduces asexually. These eggs are laid in clutches similar to that of snakes and are laid on a daily basis.

Once a queen reaches a certain point in her life, she will be able to lay a single, much larger egg that contains the next queen. She can only lay this egg once and never again as it takes very long for this egg to form and the queens who lay their first "queen egg" are usually way too old to live until their second attempt.

Snotlout named her spitfire cause she definitely has an attitude (she’s perfect for him and hooky)

He got hiccup to make him some kind of gloves so he can hold her without getting burnt (he still gets burnt she climbs all over him like a monkey)

She’s always on his shoulders or in his lap

At first he tried to not bring her on missions but she snuck onto hookfang before they left and he eventually gave up

She has set multiple things on fire and cannot be left alone without something burning

Snotlout and hookfang are also the only ones she likes, but she tolerates the others (this becomes a problem when they don’t think Snotlout can raise a literal princess dragon [he totally can])

She and hookfang take naps together

The twins try to steal her for pranks

She helps heather cook (only with supervision tho)

She hates Chicken but loves her chicks

Toothless and stormfly try to play with her but she’s too small ( Snotlout also worries they’ll be too rough)

Anyways this is just a small au I’ve been thinking abt cuz I think Snotlout is actually one of the best riders when it comes to baby dragons and I’m currently obsessed with fireworms

Edit: I’m writing this now lmk if you wanna tagged in it :)
