This small deep blue drake has blood red claws, teeth, and a pair of large frill on its back. The color of the frills seems to be changing.
One of the most beautiful of the drakes, the Sky Drake is also one of the most graceful of flyers. An unusual characteristic of the sky drake is the frills on its back which changes colors depending on their mood; black for anger, red for danger, yellow for content, blue for sadness, and white for trust.
Sky Drakes are usually very territorial and will attack anything they perceive to be a threat. They are the hated enemies of wyverns and will team up to kill them on sight. Sky drakes commonly live close with other of their kind and their territories commonly overlap.
Most sky drakes try to not get in the way of humanoids if they can. However, they have been known to help creatures that come to kill wyverns.
Sky Drakes speak draconic.
Combat
Sky Drakes do not hold back when it comes to combat. They try to team up if they can against one foe. They are not stupid however, and if the battle is not going there way, they are quick to abandon combat and flee.
