N/Bestiary/Ophitae

Fiction Wikia, the place where you can write fiction.

Ophitae are medium sized winged snakes capable of short ranged flight. They have mean bites and black scales, making them ideal targets for a boy aspiring to become a dragon slayer someday, as they appear to be miniature versions of the dragons, and they are far easier to kill than a Lofill or a Wurm.

The hunting of Ophitae has a more meaningful (to the society at large) use, as their scales are valued for sewing and their eggs are a delicacy (at least in the Wastelands).

Ophitae are found both in tablelands and scrubhills.
