yo i have a .txt full of those
breed headcanons:
bogsneaks are pretty much flightless but still better at flying than snappers
they can have fins incredibly similar to the wing or fin shape of one of their non-bog parents. for example someone with a wc parent might have fins similar to wc wings. this stuff is more likely than general breed hybrids.
coatl vocalization is all done with their mouth closed so they definitely look kinda weird speaking regular draconic. and they also end up forgetting to actually open their mouths when needed when doing so.
female faes do have longer necks than males
some guardians dont care about having charges
mirrors don't have pupils nor nostrils nor eyelids, their eyes are kinda like insect eyes but not compound
mirrors can process very rotten meat with no issues
their heads except the lower jaw are covered in a horn-like material, probably protecting the brain better? it renders them particularly unexpressive
ridgebacks catch fish with snoot and thumb claws
male ridges do snoot fights for various reasons
spirals are pretty much cats, very flexible pupil size, they run like cats but walk slowly, also their pupil enlarges a lot when they're about to pounce on something, and they have great night vision
spirals also have a
nictitating membrane like cats
spiral mating dances involve complex symmetrical dances arouund each other, almost knotting themselves but never actually doing so (unless they heck up)
spirals much prefer flying but stretch out fully when walking and look silly when doing that
spirals can grab stuff with their back feet
tundras fluff up when theyre scared so they will appear to be larger than they really are
wildclaws aren't great at flight, however theyre great at jumping and running
breed hybrids are possible, a single derg can be lots of breeds at once
they can occur from parents being different breeds or hybrids themselves, and they can also occur from breedchanges
it depends from dragon to dragon how much does the breedchange scroll affect them
the traits they get arent always appearances, it also affects personality or might not affect it at all
breed hybrids aren't actually common
gene headcanons:
after using the scroll, changes to the pattern of the derg occur slowly over the days, with the original pattern slowly fading and the new one appearing
as for the skin for something like crystal, it just changes slowly with no pain
the liquid in capsule can depend on the derg, it can be many different things
they can also change the liquid through a long magic process
or it can change depending on the derg itself, like what their job is, personality, etc
other headcanons:
joxar has nostrils for some reason
noodledad is a
cloudcuckoolander
deities dont need to flap their wings to fly, they can just float with magic, earthshaker and gladekeeper prefer to not do this though
exalted hatchlings are trained by adult exalts who are good at this
beastclans each have different languages, as well as a single universal language to communicate with each other
