Flython

Dragon Quest monster Flython

Art by Akira Toriyama Japanese ウィングスネーク Romaji Uingu snēku First appearance Dragon Quest VI Old localization WingSnake (Monsters and Monsters 2)

The Flython is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Debuting in Dragon Quest VI, they gained proper dragon status in Dragon Quest Monsters.

Characteristics

The Flython and their cousins are hybrids of three genus of real world snakes; they combine the size of Pythonidae, the head shape and fangs of Viperidae, and the hoods of Elapidae (cobras). The latter trait is a humourous exaggeration, however; where as a cobra uses its hood for intimidation and defence, the Flython uses them to set sail on air currents.
