Whers

In comparasion to the majestic dragons that were the end result of Kitti Ping's genetic experimentation, whers or watch-whers as they are sometimes call, are deformed and stunted. They have wings but their wings are not functional. Thick scaled hides protect them from the elements. Each of their feet has four gnarled digits on it. Like their fire-lizard and dragon cousins, whers have jewel-like eyes. Their facetted eyes swirl with colors that reflect their emotions.

At birth Whers Impress on a single trainer and can recognize when that person is in danger. They do not bond on the deep telepathic level to their handles as dragons can to their lifemates.

As with Pernese dragons, Whers come in five colors. Gold, bronze, brown, blue and green. The gold and green are females, and clutch eggs. Bronze, brown and blue are male.

Dragons are usually sympathic to their more simply minded cousins and will often attempt to speak with them.
