Wyrm

A surprisingly large creature, the Wyrm is one of Laitheran's predators. Believed to be the result of a mutation from a snake, the Wyrm shares many similarities with other reptilians. Its venomous bites and scales are proof of this, although it's much more significant than its counterparts. They're especially dangerous to Sapiens, as the Wyrms are able to paralyze a Sapien with a single bite. After biting the Sapien, the Wyrm can swallow such said Sapien, which is another similarity with snakes. On another note, the scales of Wyrms are of considerable value. The scales aren't used for defensive purposes, such as reinforcing armor or the like. They're instead used for decorations, making materials, etc.

Physiology
The physiology of the Wyrm is typically the same from Wyrm to Wyrm. It has no hair and is instead made up of scales. The scales of a Wyrm can be various colors of green and/or light brown. The scales aren't known for being arduous to pierce, but they do provide enough protection against a sword or another bladed weapon (Depending on what the armament is of course). The eye color of a Wyrm is divided between brown, black, or, rarely, orange.

One of the tactics of the Wyrm is to abuse its venomous bite. The venom of the Wyrm is capable of killing small animals and paralyzing larger ones. This includes Sapiens, who can be knocked unconscious with a single bite and an adequate amount of venom. In addition to its poison, the Wyrm can swallow prey easily, as it has the ability to expand itself to the point where it can consume creatures that are bigger than Wyrms themselves, much like a snake. The Wyrm is also astonishingly agile, as it's been recorded to be as nimble as a Sapien when it genuinely tries. Wyrms travel alone and live alone, they're shy and reserved creatures, even when around Sapiens. A Wyrm is usually only seen with another Wyrm during mating season, or if the two coincidentally stumbled upon each other.

Wyrms are carnivorous when it comes to their natural diet, so they stay around plains and forests due to their abundance of prey. They're able to live in their respective biomes for about ten to fifteen years, longer if they're kept as a pet and fed properly.
