Muurk the RainMudWing hybrid

Description

Aaand another Wings of Fire dragon! And if you couldn't tell already, I'm a big fan of MudWings and Mudwing hybrids (such an underrated tribe/breed).

Anyway. Another friend for Gypsum and Sanguine, this is Muurk (pronounced with perhaps more emphasis on the 'uuur'), a 4 year old RainWing/MudWing hybrid they came across at the jungle edge. Her egg hatched alone and abandoned near jungle pools/swamp. The sound of frogs was the first thing she heard, and named herself after the sound the local bullfrogs made 'muuuurrk'. She learnt to hunt, find food, and mimic from observing the fauna; and later discovered some RainWings, but watched from a distance and picked up basic speech from them. Her 'rainwing' upper body and wings can camouflage fully, the lower/under more 'mudwing' body and wings goes a weird mottled appearance. She doesn't have the full toxic venom of rainwings, but instead has mild venom sacs inside her cheeks which she can puncture with her back teeth and then chew or spit onto prey or attackers in saliva. Muurk's tail is prehensile for the last 3/4, but is quite heavy.

Coloured with Promarkers.
