Will fix things later, just posting now to have it up for the time being
Background
Wyverni, the Cousins of Aeda, live far off in the more exotic parts of the World of Cinderfell. Whether it be in Volcanic Scorched badlands, Deserted Wastelands, Sandy Dunes, or even Snowy Mountains and the likes. These lot are the more “backwards evolution” of Aeda. only related in appearance rather than actual blood, Wyverni being related to Draconic entities in blood.
Wyverni were created far back before the war. A group of folk were researching the Dragons and their abilities, along with their limitations. A few of these folk became curious, and began injecting themselves with doses of Cursed Draconic blood. This, of course, didn’t go all too well. For some, This Draconic blood turned them into Wyervni, Retaining a more human looks-- Others, towards Wyvernkin, barely retaining any human structure and looking more like a dragon.
Those Injected grew a bit feral. Not in the sense of going ham and attacking everything in sight, but in the sense of losing their humanity slowly.
During them slowly losing their humanity, their Appearance and Mentality began to slowly alter afterwards, turning them into feral, draconic-like beings. Though this didn’t stop them from slowly regaining their senses and becoming more civillized, adapting to the race they are in current time.
Culture
Due to their Affinity to Dragons, it is unlikely a Viralis will attack them, unless provoked. Though, it is a different story when it comes to Vharin. Despite usually being passive, a Vharin will have a natural disliking towards a Wyverni, this disliking worsening if they’re a Wyvernkin.
Wyverni have their own native tongue that they tend to speak in when in groups, those knowing of the native tongue often reside within the very tribes that Wyverni originated from, the language being passed down to their kin, and so on.
Wyverna, The female Wyverni/Wyvernkin, naturally grow only to be 4’0-6’2 naturally, whilst Wyverno, the male Wyverni/Wyvernkin, grow from 5’8-7’2 naturally.
Strengths & Weaknesses
A Wyverni/Wyvernkim Strengths and Weaknesses entirely depend on their blood relation to their kind and where they were born, much like Elves. A Prime example is a Wyverni/Wyvernkin being born in a Desert area will make them more resistant to heat compared to the cold.
A major strength that a Wyverni And Wyvernkin has is their tie with Dragons. They are capable of speaking to Vharin and Viralis alike, though this doesn’t mean they can necessarily control them. They also have tough skin/scales and pointy, sharp horns and claws.
Their ability to fly & glide (if they have back wings) is another upside.
They are rather energetic, though this by no means allows them to match the speed of a Vampire, but are able to keep a level head all the while and defend themself for quite a bit.
A Wyverni’s wings are rather weak, easily pierceable and slashable. And despite their ability to communicate, Viralis are unlikely (But still may) attack a Wyverni/Wyvernkin due to their ties, but the same cannot be said about Vharin, which will attack upon seeing them.
Wyverni (More Human-like) are more prone to Poisons, slashing and bludgeoning damage due to their main ties to humans. Wyvernkin (More dragon-like) Are less affected by Slashing and poisons, but are more at risk to bludgeoning damage, and can be pierce in areas where their scales do not cover more easily (such as their stomach).
Appearance
A Wyverni/Wyvernkin’s appearance can scale entirely on their bloodline and where they were born, sharing the same variety as Humans and Elves; Depending on where the Wyverni originated from, their appearance and culture differs. For example, a Wyverni born in a Volcanic, Ashy Region from likewise parents will be born moreso with Magma-like, or even Obsidian Scales.
Generally, Wyvernkin can have abnormally coloured Sclera, though most commonly black or white, they can range widely on the colour spectrum.
Logically, a Wyverni still holds Wyvern-like parts to their figure, though it does not dominate their humanoid appearance like it does for Wyverkin, so they still look more humanoid as shown in references below.
Majority of Wyverni tend to have Wings, though whether they work or not is a different story.
Wyvernis
If leaning on the more Human side of the bloodline, a Wyvernis will retain a more Wyvern-like appearance.
References
Wyvernis typically have Tougher skin, though with the occasional scales. Their wings are either on the lower parts of their back, or on the back of their arms.

Wyvernkin
If leaning on the more Wyvern side of the bloodline, a Wyvernkin will retain a more Viralis-like appearance.

Wyvernkin, Much like Dragons, Are covered in Scales, and have Wings on their Backs rather than arms.
