Sandstingers are medium-sized dragons which live in arid environments. Female and juvenile Sandstingers have brown stripes, while the males have purple stripes, females are also noticably larger. Young juveniles lack the stingers this species was named after, but they begin to grow in once they're halfway to their adult size. Sandstingers will feed on plants and any small animals they come across. including insects.

Notes

This dragon's design came from a dream I had once, other than altering the shape of its feet, it hasn't changed very much.
