* Deformed/Handicapped

# Description

Large & Bulky dragons, with short but powerful limbs, square shoulders, hefty tails, and broad wings, they have fin-like ridges down their spines and webbed talons. They have rough crocodile-like scales and somewhat blunt claws but make up for that with their many thin and compact but sharp teeth.
BogWings can be any variation of Green, Brown or black, they normally have details/patterns in another color.

Females have horns while males don't, though males tend to be bigger and larger.

BogWings look slightly different when their dragonets, as dragons grow up a lot like frogs when dragonets: males don't have the patch on their neck and both sexes have gills which disappear over 2 years, though in rare cases a BogWing retains the gills

# Abilities

BogWings are able to hold their breath for more than 5 days straight and have the ability to filter swamp water through baleen at the back point of their neck so they aren’t affected by the contaminants in the water. All BogWings can emit a relatively harmless mist but it smells absolutely terrible, and after long time exposure it can start to cause damage to the lungs of those breathing it in(starts to cause lung damage at about 1½ day(s) of exposure)

# Naming

( Note: due to most dragonets growing up without parents they end up naming themselves or other siblings name them)BogWings are commonly named after Swamp animals or plants, possibly colors, Character traits, or appearance

# Combat

Though their big size hints at aggressive offensive techniques, they much rather use their abilities for stealth and slowly smoking out their opponents.

# History

BogWings history has never really been clear and not many BogWings really care that much about their history

# Architecture

BogWings make houses/buildings that are very similar to a beaver lodge, with an underwater entrance and made out of wood and mud, any building not built near a body of water is normally considered to be important to the BogWing's government or traditions,

# Territory

BogWing land is made up of about half swamp and half grasslands with a bit of rainforest in the north-west part of the kingdom, but most of the population resides in the swamplands, many still live out in the grasslands.

## Fotia(Foe-ta)

## Coteri(Co-tear-e)

Coteri is described as both a God and Goddess due to the constant changing of the moon(constantly referred to just as a Deity or They/Them), Coteri look as they have been coated in silver as they have iridescent scales and pure silver eyes, they are said to be the same ancient tribe as Fotia, The Deity is said to lead a chariot across the sky chasing Fotia, due to Fotia betraying them

# Diet

Though they have sharp teeth BogWings eat mostly water plants and roots though it's not uncommon for BogWings to eat meat but, most of the time meat is eaten for celebrations and special event
