The wyvern are a lesser wyrm -- distant relatives of the greater
dragons. They are not exceptionally intelligent, but are infamous for
their vicious combative nature. Wyverns will attack anything, with no
regard for size or strength.
When airborne, the wyvern will attack with a poison stinger shipping
around at the end of nearly 20 feet of tail. The 2-foot long barb will
pierce armor and dragon hide alike. Wyvern poison can hurt even a
dragon and often kill a human.
The Highlords have been able to use wyverns in their war through the
intervention of the evil dragons. While they are very difficult for
humans to train, they will follow the orders of their larger kin.
Something wyverns are set in lairs near known trading routes, where
they will swoop down and carry off unarmored members of caravans.
These lesser wyrms are extremely agile flyers and boast a very good
turning ability.
