Der Navigationsoffizier ließ 3 seiner 5 Augen über die zahlreichen Anzeigen schweifen die er zu überwachen hatte. Seit die Flotte des Sorgaar Imperiums in den Fremden Raum vorgedrungen war, las er vorsichtshalber nur mit zwei Augen die Kada Tqidu*.
Seine achteckigen Pupillen glitten über Sternenkarten, Radarschirme und die feingliedrigen Beine von Etu Lapa'se.
Nichts besonderes. Jedenfalls bei den ersten beiden...
Seit gut 4 Jahren arbeitete er an der kleinen Konsole im hintern Teil der Brücke. Die Arbeit war einfach und er wurde nicht alzu oft

Flavaalae wellnhoferiby ~Hyrotrioskjan

Traditional Art / Drawings / Animals

During the early Pliocene this species arrive in the skys to dominate the marine ecosystem over the waves, with 7,2 meter wingspan it just need to flap one or two times the hour to glide over dozens of kilometers.
Flavaalae is a missing link between Megaceloxus and Volatiosuchus. The wings are longer, the legs are spreadable to help the animal while landing. The tail is still long, even longer than that of Megaceloxus, but the marks ot the bones suggest that the tail crests increase too.
Flavaalae is known from Venezuela and Sri Lanka.

Thanks for putting Sri Lanka on the map for dragons,....although this does NOT resemble the makara of Lankan myth and art but who cares? Cool thought

I really thought long about a way how I could trnasform the Makara into an own species but end up with the explanation that it was inspired by several animals (sea serpants, the Buru, elepfants, Ganges Gharial and maybe in some regions the south asian river dolpin)

Flavaalae is a small compensation.

Well, thanks for the effort

And in art, the makara is a composition of lion paws, elephant trunk and head, fish or crocodilian body, bird winds, monkey eyes, horse ears and large, pointed teeth. A Flavaalae with a turkey-like dewlap would be pretty weird in any case though...plenty of animals in art and sculpture thay have absolutely no basis in biology, it seems
