Pyropellis Wyvern

Pyropellis Wyverns were released on August 22, 2021, alongside Shumoga Dragons.
Pyropellis Wyverns occur in six variants, which are determined by the breed of dragon they most recently bred with. The flames on its back may take on different colors or disappear outright.
== Official descriptions ==
=== Egg ===
Tough ridges line the surface of this rough, mottled egg.
=== Hatchling ===
Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It is drawn to flames, and has a curious desire to jump into them.
=== Mature hatchling ===
Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It is drawn to flames, and has a curious desire to jump into them.
And look! Its wings have grown larger! It must be close to maturing.
=== Adult ===
Pyropellis Wyverns are most commonly encountered swooping through the trenches and craters that dot their volcanic abodes, bathed in stifling heat. While their tough, mottled hides blend in seamlessly with the volcanic rock that surrounds them, Pyropellis Wyverns stand out due to the fervent flames that cloak their backs. Unable to produce a flame, these dragons secrete a highly flammable substance from their backs, which they will find some way to set alight. This fire primarily serves to intimidate and daze unfriendly strangers, keeping snapping maws away from the necks and back of the dragon. The flames also serve as a way to bond: young hatchlings are often first set aflame by their parents. Fire-breathing dragons may supply their mates with flames. It is not uncommon to find a Pyropellis sporting flames unique to other species of dragons, having made contact with those flames.

== Variant determination ==
The appearance of an adult Pyropellis Wyvern's flames is determined by the breed of dragon the Pyropellis most recently bred with. All Pyropellis Wyverns mature as the orange variant. Breeding a flameless Pyropellis with a lit Pyropellis will reignite it in the lit mate's color. If a breeding attempt results in a refusal, no change will occur.
