Rat Tail

Category: Physical

A thin tail that keeps its width throughout the tail. It starts abruptly and ends abruptly. It contains bone with very little flesh or muscle. You may choose whether or not scales appear on this tail.


Color Rules

You may choose for Rat Tail to have no scales. If you do remove them, then the tail will follow regular flesh color rules. If flesh is showing elsewhere on the dragon, then the tail will match that color.

If you decide to keep scales on the Rat Tail, then they are treated like regular scales and will be the same color as the base.

Size & Range

There is no maximum limit on tail length. However, your dragon’s tail must be long enough to be able to touch the ground. Legs will not attach to the tail. Unless a dragon has Tailless, there must be a central bony area.
