Pig Dragon

He's ugly and cute at the same time. 😁

Pig Dragon
Medium: digital painting
Pig Dragons are a domestic species of dragon. They are are on the smaller side, about the size of a pony. Their small wings allow them to fly only for short distances. They are ridable, but they generally stay close to the ground when being ridden, due to not being strong flyers. They are omnivorous creatures with a powerful sense of smell. They are very friendly and sociable, and are known for their voracious appetites. Wild pig dragons, sometimes called boar dragons, can be very aggressive. Both pig and boar dragons have thick, scaly hides. They use their spade-shaped noses to root through dirt to find food. Pig dragons breed once a year, producing up to five hatchlings, which the mother cares for until they are nearly mature.

Horse Dragon

Horse Dragon
Medium: digital painting
Horse Dragons are named for their equine physic. They are the size of large horses, such as Shires or Belgians. They come in a variety of earthen colors, with rusty red (as pictured), brown, and earthy green being the most common. Their legs are long and built for running. Their feet have two toes each, which are hard like claws or hooves. Because they are heavy, the small wings on their haunches provide them with extra lift during flight.

Horse Dragons are excellent runners. They have good wings for flying a few miles, but they are not distance fliers. They prefer to run over long distances, and thus live in open plains and mountains, but rarely in forests. Because they are not built for crouching, they typically catch prey by spying it out from above and then driving down at it. They live in family groups of about three to twenty, headed by a lead male and his female. Young males are typically evicted from the group once they reach maturity and form bachelor groups until they can form family groups of their own. A female Horse Dragon comes in heat once a year and generally lays one egg at a time.

Horse Dragons are not overly aggressive, but they are very capable of defending themselves when threatened. They do not breathe fire from their mouths, but rather snort it through their nostrils. Their heavily armored underbellies and necks give them protection when rearing on their hind legs, and the spines along their necks and backs make it difficult for opponents to attack from above. This is particularly useful since Horse Dragons spend most of their time on the ground. They also wield a savage kick.
