Description

Valstrax is a slender dragon covered in gleaming silver scales. Its most notable feature is its wings, which have fused into a trident-like structure. Its back is lined with fin-like projections. Its head has a small crest and its eyes are blue.

Valstrax is covered in reflective silver scales that give this monster its slim appearance. Like most other dragons, Valstrax has six limbs: four legs and a pair of wings. Unique to valstrax are its trident shaped wings. The wings of Valstrax are versatile and flexible being able to stretch the arm appendages to hit far-reaching targets, expanding its wings resembling a three-fingered claw for a wider area of attack or closing the wings to make use of the blade-like tip on the frontal end of the wings that is commonly used with the stretching appendages as "jabs" akin to that of a spear for accurate attacks. On the ends of both of the wings are three openings that fire off energy produced via a special organ in its chest that sucks in the air before releasing it out through the wings as a form exhaust. This allows it to fly at outrageous speeds, making it the fastest flying monster known today. When flying at high speeds, it looks like a "red comet" in the sky, showing that at its highest speed no one can identify it easily.

Valstrax can also flip its wings in two different directions: Backwards; for flying at high speeds, and Forward; attacking foes from a distance by using the energy as projectiles. Valstrax's breathing methods are nearly identical to birds in a sense. The special organ in its chest is constantly glowing red and occasionally pulses whenever Valstrax decides to use it for certain actions, such as flying.

Valstrax is quite calm when not disturbed, but will turn extremely aggressive if they feel threatened in any way. No matter the foe, Valstrax has a variety of ways of fighting off threats. This is the reason why it is sometimes called the Silver Wing of the Evil Star or Sky Comet Dragon. Though Valstrax is quite calm in the sky, it will occasionally mistakenly crash into objects in the air from their shocking flying speeds. These objects can be about the size of an Airship or even a Winged Drake.
