"This two-legged lizard is bigger than an ogre. It has a long tail tipped with a thick knot of cartilage from which a stinger protrudes, much like that of a scorpion. It has leathery bat wings and huge jaws filled with long, sharp teeth."
Two wyverns frolicking in a field
A distant cousin to the true dragons, the wyvern is a huge flying lizard with a poisonous stinger in its tail.
A wyvern’s body is 15 feet long, and dark brown to gray; half that length is tail. Its wingspan is about 20 feet. A wyvern weighs about one ton. Wyverns speak Draconic, but usually don’t bother with anything more elaborate than a loud hiss or a deep-throated growl much like that of a bull alligator.
