#spitzfire

Starfish (Undead Family): Scowling starfish whose bright colouring brightens up beaches in summer. Though they spend most of their lives in the sea, they are capable of walking on two legs.

Feral Slime (Slime Family): Slimes which live in the unforgiving rainforest. These hardened survivors will do whatever it takes to escape predators, be it holding their breath under muddy waters or climbing high above the canopy of trees.

Flython (Dragon Family): Huge snakes which have evolved oversized hoods. They have been witnessed using these fully-flared cowls to soars over the seas on nights where the moon is full.

Suckling Ocker (Nature Family): These octopus-like creatures make a delightful delicacy when gently seared with a well-timed blast of fire breath.

Great Sabrecub (Beast Family): The offspring of a great sabrecat. If taken in at an early age and lavished with care and affection, these monsters can be tamed and kept.

Spitnik (Material Family): This sun-like monster, who fights together with its orbiting accomplice, is precisely as hot as you might imagine. It is aware of the existence of the blue moon, but they are yet to meet face-to-face.

Picksy (Demon Family): Though small in stature, these fairies boast great fortitude. They love nothing more than a good ruck, and will drop whatever they're doing to partake in a spot of pugilism.

Skipper (Undead Family): The unholy union of an abandoned boot and a spherical furball fiend. Best keep your distance—that's a sure recipe for a ripe aroma.

Snowmangler (Slime Family): a snowy slime that could easily pass as a regular snowman. After they melt, they're carried into the next life by a host of angel slimes.

Spitzfire (Dragon Family): Whopping huge hounds with daunting dragon wings. Legendarily loyal, they're the leading choice of guard dog all across Nadiria.

"Dog years."

I did a goofy guy.

It was kinda hard to see in the official art of it on the wiki, but this is what the spitzfire’s wings look like??? Actually, not even; they’re a bit more squat

These doggos should not even be able to fly. The skin connects to the flank far too close to the shoulder. Also, that skin is thick. I thought it was just the fingers, but no, the skin itself is, too. And it’s scaled??? Probably why they stay so close to the ground, but I feel like they shouldn’t be able to stay in the air as long as they do, either. Like, they can use their wings to gain distance while jumping, and probably even glide a little if they leap from high enough, but it doesn’t seem like they should actually be able to fly

And what is with the third finger?? It’s not like dragons can’t have a finger extend from their elbow, but? there’s no elbow??? I shoulda started over when I realized it’s just a shoulder and wrist because it looks like there’s an elbow in my drawing and there definitely should be one, but there’s not???

Ah, and I just realized I drew the large claw facing the wrong way
