Depiction of a wyvern
A wyvern is a huge flying lizard with a long snout and a poisonous stinger in its tail.[1] While only a distant cousin of true dragons, wyverns' tendency to hunt in packs makes them dangerous foes. A wyvern’s body is fifteen feet long, and dark brown to gray; half that length is tail. Its wingspan is about twenty feet.

Known Wyverns
Vox Machina encountered several wyverns being ridden by bandits in "Skyward". In a humorous turn of events, one of the flying beasts was polymorphed into a harmless rabbit, and consequently plummeted thousands of feet into the Ozmit Sea below.
Wyverns were a common element of Thordak's forces, usually used as mounts by the lizardfolk that served him.
Vasselheim has a group of wyvern riders among its military forces.[3]

In the final round, and last battle of the Victory Pit tournament during the Harvest Close Festival in Zadash, The Stubborn Stock faced off against and in an exhausted battle defeated[4] a large 20-foot wyvern that had its wings purposefully carved and cut so as to prevent it from flying.[5]
