This is Esmeralda.
During uni, as an exam, our professor requested an essay in which we had to describe a system applying all the biochemistry stuff we'd learned. I chose her as an species and my head hurt so much i questioned why would people think a person could have created a whole world with ecosystems and living beings. i know gods aren't people, but ough, that should be tricky.
Anyways, her design is too different to the first one up in her rider's profile, so i should remake his too. unu. but i'm happy how it came out!! She doesn't have as much speculation as Dorado does, but honestly I rushed this. I might make a species sheet for her, since I started thinking about the differences between males and females and that essay must be worth it.
[ID: a character sheet of Esmeralda, a fictional amphibian explained as a flying newt. She's has the body of a bright green newt, feet like a gecko's and two pair of wings, the front ones are slender and the back ones are similar to a butterfly's, although wings displayed like this are found in real life grasshoppers. She also has two pairs of eyes. From left to right, there are illustrations of her taking fllight as she jumps from a tree trunk with her wings spread out; her flight silouette; a side view; a drawing in which she has her saddle on, and a half body drawing of her openning her mouth, which is purple on the inside.
There are text boxes that explain some of her characteristics. First, her scientific name reads "Rhyacotriton smaragdus"
From left to right, the texts says:
Wings like a grasshopper's. Undersides are paler, similar to a butterfly's.
Flight silouette (top view)
Bothe eyes are functional. The smaller ones tell distance since they're at the front.
Wings are saved like an accordion.
Saddle. Made light to facilitate flight. The helm can be displayed horizontally for climbing trees.
Feet can adhere to all surfaces in the jungle. Her species is less dependant on water but they still hunt near it. They have developed hard structures (claws and spikes) for defense out of the water.
Aileron is displayed transversally when flying (see Flight silouette).
They shoot their tongue to catch prey (giant insects).
Her species not being a 'true dragon' doesn't stop her from making loud noises for fun. End ID.]
