	The Cornish Wyvern typically reaches a length of about 2.5 meters, including its tail, and has an equal wingspan, allowing for gliding and short flights. Unlike dragons, wyverns like this species have two legs and are distinguished by their reptilian, serpentine appearance. They possess a row of spiny ridges along their back, leading to a long, powerful tail. Their scales are small, tough and have a natural, earthy coloration, which provides camouflage in the wyvern's native moorland habitat.

	Cornish Wyverns are known for their territorial and aggressive nature. In fact, they are one of the most aggressive species of wyvern known. They are primarily solitary creatures, coming together only during mating seasons. These wyverns are both swift runners and agile fliers, although they prefer to hunt on the ground where they can utilize their speed and venomous bite or spit. They are purely carnivorous, and, being apex predators, will typically hunt anything up to medium game, such as deer or sheep. While they normally do not prey on humans, they will attack them, considering them a disturbance or intruders into their territory.

	The Cornish wyvern's venom is extremely agressive and lethal. Due to its acidic nature, even skin contact is highly dangerous, as it will cause immediate pain and eat through skin and flesh within minutes. When injected into the blood stream via bite, it is almost always lethal, as it will immediately start causing severe damage to any tissue it comes in contact with. Unless a witch or wizard specialized in powerful healing magic, or an extremely potent healing potion, such as a potion of temporary immortality, is available, immediately amputating the afflicted limb, and thus preventing the venom to spread throughout the body, is often the only way to save a victim.

However, it should be noted that, once it attacks, it fights to kill, and it will be difficult to deter it. Cornish wyverns do not like to loose.
