    Another winner. These really are the most nuanced and interesting dragons created. As an aside too, I like how you've actually made evil skull and crossbones armour that actually has a valid, cultural reason for its appearance instead of just 'Looks pretty evil doesn't it >:)'.

Those clatterjaws are horrid creatures and no amount of coin is gonna convince me to even think about trying to slay one.

    I think out of all your various dragons designs this is by far one of my favorite, not only is it just such a cool idea for a dragon but they are just so creepy. Both their medium size and large numbers would be a nightmare to dear with or even be around. Having the clattering surround you from all angles, its such a amazingly terrifying trait of the species.

  • @PrimordialRoseberryBush
    @PrimordialRoseberryBush 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +12

    I have an idea for you, this isn't a dragon idea but just an animal idea, a parasite that disguises as the tounge of a clatterjaw and cordiceps fungus's the dragons brain, basically zombie dragons, then it makes the dragon go to an oyster and open its mouth, the parasite, which is 3 times as long as a lamprey, then finds an opening of some kind in the shell, and slithers through, finds the soft body of the oyster and consumes it, then forces its dragon to lay an egg or steal an egg and put it in the oyster shell, the parasite lays an egg inside the egg, then the dragon and parasite either grow together and the parasite gets an immediate host, or if it's biologically possible and if you want, mutants? :)
    I just thought this was an interesting idea
    It also could lead into the belief of the dragons being the souls of the dead

These teeth are adapted to their diet of crustaceans and mollusks, with the front teeth grabbing and breaking prey and the back teeth crushing and grinding shells. and chosen to be voice by Bill Nighy.

      A bigger planet would result in higher gravity, but that same gravity would also make a thicker atmosphere allowing for more lift. And some dragons have air sacs while other larger ones can’t truly fly on their own but can glide or need a boost via some means. Granted, you have to stretch realism a bit if you want dragons.

      Same way they get into land oysters, bite it open to get to the squishy bits inside. I can imagine them shoving their heads in doorways and biting off chunks until they can fit.

      @@josewayneoninguemd7740 This ridiculous bite strength is not achieved by powerful muscles or special bones strengthening the Dragon‘s bite as is the case for Saltwater Crocodiles ( 1.6 tons of force) or T-Rexes (6-7 tons of force) but through creating increasing pressure the longer the Clatterjaw maintains it‘s bite on the victim/prey. It almost functions like an industrial machine continually increasing the stress it applies on something through steampower or a vacuum
