**•Wingspan:**
70 ft ,large, nettle leaf like wings to soar in the sky)

**•Appearance:**
Nettle spines are curious dragons, distant relatives to the night fury, these wyvern built like dragons have bright colors, orange, red, brown, yellow, gold ect. However, a rarer variant may have dark green colors instead outside of the Itching Armpit region.

These dragons have a head similar to that of their distant relatives, yet their nubs are sharp and spiny, ending in small needles all containing a poison which renders dragons in a tranquil, almost collapsing, like state. Their necks and parts of their tail are also covered in said spines.

On their backs these dragons have sails which allow them to control their body temperature, which slowly goes over into their fins and finally their tail fins.

**•Art Credit:** me
**•Variations:** These dragons can have a dark pine variation which can be “crossbred” with their more warm coloured counterparts, this usually results in 75% either Itching Armpit variant or Dark Pine variant, however in the rare instance of 25%, a “Mixed Forest” Variant carrying colors of both variants

**•Rare Ability(s):**
“Cobra Spit” - The dragon can spit the dragon root venom like a cobra at its enemies (or victims)
“Chameleon scales” - The dragon can change the colors of its scales to blend in (variant category will still apply to either one of the 3)

*OTHER INFO*
**•Strengths/Skills:**
poisonous nettles
high agility
camouflage
swift
intelligence
Complete immunity to dragonroot and being able to extract it as a poison into their nettlespines

**•Weaknesses:**
curiosity
fragile bones and wings
poor smelling ability
cannot control themselves well midair if their fins are damaged
highly susceptible to fire and acid

**•Diet:**
Their main diet consists of Dragonroot, which fuels their poisonous nettle-like spines on their nubs and their necks. However they also feed on worms, fish and smaller livestock.
The dragonroot is a CRUCIAL part on their diet hence why they died out in the hidden world a long time ago and cannot be found down there

**•Behavior:**
Usually these dragons are quiet curious and rather just explore than hurt anyone, however near their nesting trees they become very aggressive to the point they will attack even dragons twice their size.

They are very social dragons, as long as it isn't near their nesting trees, they'll attempt to communicate with harmless looking things which sadly makes them a common target for dragon hunters

**•Preferred Habitat:**
Itching Armpit and Dark Pines, very thick forests

**•Tamability:**
Semi difficult
these dragons are usually no issue to tame if met in the right conditions, however near their nesting trees they become VERY aggressive and territorial to the point it is impossible to calm the dragon until you leave.
