Nasty Dragons

Return to previous page.

Nasty Dragons is a concept for a line of vinyl figures that I would love to make some day, the name is a bit of a placeholder but I haven't been able to find something else that feels right. My basic idea for it is that each dragon figure has some sort of gimmick, for example, Wormgut has a maggot hidden in its mouth that can be removed and displayed in its hand. The names for each of the dragon categories are alliterative, mainly because I felt like that would fit.

Dragon Categories

• Dreadful Drakes: dragons which have at least four non-wing limbs and may or may not have wings
• Horrid Hydras: dragons which bear at least two heads, limb count and type is not part of this category
• Loathsome Lindworms: dragons which have only two legs, whether they be on the front or back
• Skeevy Serpents: dragons which are either entirely limbless or bear wings/fins and no other limbs
• Wily Wyverns: dragons which bear two legs and at least two wings, it does not matter if their legs are on the front or back

Notes

I don't usually use these sorts of dragon categorizations in my projects, but I thought it would be neat for this one. I wanted these categories to be rather broad as I didn't want it to become bloated, five categories feels like enough. The Lindworms were also initially going to be Drake variations, but I like the word, so I created the Loathsome Lindworm category to give myself more opportunities to use it.
