    Not all dragons are maneaters, important to have some herbivores to balance out the others. Really love this one and it's unqiue faceshape + crest and it's diet of poisonous plants.

    A popular story among mountain herders is that if you bow to a Veilwright, they take it as a sign of submission. Apparently, if you keep low and your head down, you can even sit on the altar with them as they feed. I wouldn't risk it though - all it takes is for the dragon to sneeze and you're done for.

    I had an idea that plants and crops around the dragon grow better because The poison from the smoke acts as a natural insecticide (most poisonus plants have poison to prevent themselves from being eaten by both vertebrates AND invertebrates so it makes sense) and the native villagers have a mild (Keyword, MILD) resistance to the poisonous plants because there is a small amount on their crops (of course if the dragon sticks around for to long you end up with a poisoned village)

    This is a cool design! I like how different it is from typical fire-breathing dragons. It’s similar to a dragon I designed once. It was an omnivorous dragon that consumed psychedelic plants and breathed out clouds of smoke in the forest. The smoke made mammals high, and when the prey was too high to care, the dragon walked up to it and killed it. I didn’t flesh it out as well as yours though.

    had an idea that might fit this mythos. a biological potato cannon-come-blunderbus. using a precise mix of fuel gas and air, it builds up this mix in a specialised, reinforced chamber, fossicking around for a particular size of stone. once enough stones are found and stored in the mouth, it begins to hunt, seeking out large birds to shoot out of the sky with a scattershot of stones. not enough to kill, usually, but easily badly bruises its target, even breaking bones occasionally.

Sorry if thats alot of questions I just like this species quite a bit and wonder what selective pressures pushed them in this direction? Also one last question, do any od the rixuns sequester in the meat, hide or eggs of the dragons making them inedible?

    The Veilwright is an enigmatic, rare dragon that veils itself in a constant cloak of smoke. A herbivore, it consumes poisonous plants that others wouldn’t touch, isolating and weaponizong the chemicals to integrate into their cloud. A dragon with 10 extra nostrils (8 breathable and 2 rigids) makes the Veilwright Dragon breathing the air better and exhale smokes at it's enemy.

    Some herbivores have sharper teeth for stripping bark from trees (likely for this one since it has large grinding teeth in the back) and others have them for defense and competition (mandrills, baboons, and musk deer). Animals are pretty cool.
