New Seawing design! Seawing Adaptations/ Tradeoffs: A. Valvular (closeable) ears B. Serrated teeth to shear through prey (Like tiger sharks, rawr) C. Skin slick and wet --- mucus layer their body exerts on land to breath, not dehydrate, and extra barrier from pathogens. D. Webbed talons & neck gills. E. Wattle flaps act as a cooling system & social esteem (dragons with wattle beards are considered wise & attractive). Wattles glow too lol. F. A bit near-sighted on land but due to spherical lenses their focus power underwater is phenomenal. G. Strong sense of smell in water. Chemical scents and electrical signals are felt due to their nose. But their nose is weally sensitive :< (Like sharks!) H. Caudal fins --- swimming speed and stability. I. Glow patterns are like fingerprints for each individual- color & patterns. Only the royal generations have glowing wings (but that will not apply to modern times- see 'Other Seawing Facts') J. They rest and dine floating on their backs like otters!
Song: Kahoot! Treasure trove Lobby Music Other Seawing Facts (I made them up for my canon WoF universe lol): -Coral, not wanting any of her daughters to die in a "useless duel", had retired (she's the first queen to do this, starting a trend). Her daughters chose Ink to rule, the sixth daughter who is an adopted Silk-sea hybrid (another first). -The Seawing Kingdom is the talk of traditional tribes (they call it "the Scorpion Den of the Sea"), it is considered a huge shift in practices and values. And Queen Ink plans to make many more changes as she is loved by the majority of Seawings (especially by suiters as she is considered attractive & is a little flirty). -Despite pushback from older generations, the kingdom of the Sea seems to be a thriving place..
