My Bio

I am an American of proud Anglo-Celtic and Mediterranean heritage that is a fan of Mythology, Linguistics, and Anthropology, and all kinds of stories and media; like the Lord of the Rings, Dune (I prefer the mini-series), Gargoyles, and more.

My absolute favorite subject of study is that of the ancient Celtic peoples, especially the Gauls, and early British peoples such as the early Welsh, Picts, Cumbrians, and Irish. I also like Paleontology and Paleobiology to some extant, and love to study ancient proboscideans and spinorsaurs as well as the occasional synapsid and other Permian/Triassic curiosities as well

I was just reviewing some of the comments I got for wings of fire genetics part one and I have changed my theory a bit to fit with our discussion. Last time I said that all dragons get most of their physical characteristics from their mother through the X chromosome that I am not changing. I've noticed that female dragons that are hybrids like whiteout and sunny are more like both of their parents then say darkstalker or possibly albatross. I think that perhaps due to females having 2 X chromosomes they get traits from both tribes that's why Sunny has a Nightwing like Muzzle and tail and how whiteout is much slimmer and has more white scales.

Wings of fire GENETICS I was sitting in science class, just a normal Friday when my teacher started talking about phenotypes and genotypes, and then I had a light bulb moment. Dragons from wings of fire have most of their physical characteristics encrypted in there maternal X chromosome. Think about it... almost any trait a hybrid has is from there mom, except a few... to be expected. I believe the genes that make the tribes who they are, are from mutations in the X chromosome of an ancestral "eve" of each tribe. That's also why there are queens instead of kings, most traits a child gets is from their mom so obviously that child will be m

WARNING SPOILERS up to page 57 of talons of power Ok so I was reading talons of power when I read how anemone's chestplate can fit around darkstalker's wrist. So I wanted to figure out how big darkstalker really was. So using TheRouxzeeSkyWing's calculations on how big sunny is we can determine that a small dragom like anemone is probably about 12.65 ft tall, using this we can find out how big her chest is. Now the chest of a dragon is about 1/3 as tall and the length is 1/4 of the dragons height. Using this we can determine that the chest is diagonally about 7.4feet, but looking at the picture makes me want to say it's 2/3 of the dragons
