SPECIES NAME: Zilant
APPEARANCE: The Zilant is a rather mysterious dragon of the night. Reaching the length of the Boneknapper, these strange dragons are relatively large. Their body seems to be in the form of a virus/smoke-cloud-like substance, making it rather difficult to see at night, IF one isn't looking for it. However, if one is searching for a Zilant, you must look through the sky in search of the many holes that glow yellow that line it's body. Under it's wings, on it's sides, it's mouth even. The creature itself seems to have no viewable anatomy, such as eyes or nostrils. In their place are yellow glowing holes. and have a single horn over each eyebrow. It is completely unknown how this dragon works, and why it glows yellow, or why it looks like it's a living smoke form (Although it's not, it is it's actual body, however, it seems to expel smoke from the glowing holes in it's body which seem to stay around the dragon. This smoke is incredibly thick for a gas and creates a weak armor of sorts around it's body, kinda like a boneknapper).
They are a rather intelligent dragon species and seem to take an interest in human behavior. They also seen to share many characteristics with Nighfurys. They are very fast (Although not as fast as Nightfurys because they are much larger), have large wingspans, and are very hard to spot at night.. They also share many similarities to Monsterous Nightmares, walking the same way, lack of forelimbs, and deadly claws. However, it's powerful legs are far stronger and slightly longer, allowing them to stand on their hind legs alone, like a Deadly Nadder.
CLASS: Mystery
ABILITIES: Despite visibly unarmed in the jaw area, these creatures seem to have a devastating bite. It is unsure if it's jaws are like scissors, or if it has teeth (Although unknown to the vikings, it's jaws are actually similar to the prehistoric fish, Dunkleosteus). It's long and powerful legs are tipped with three large talons, similar to a bird of prey's. It's tail is It's ranged attack is smoke, it breaths smoke, methane, propane, and other flammable gases in one cloud as it's ranged attack, making it poisonous to breath, hard to see, and highly combustable. However, the problem is, a Zilant can't light it itself.
OTHER INFORMATION: This peculiar dragon isn't afraid of eels, an will eat them like any other fish. It also tends to eat coal, charcoal, wood, anything that will fuel it's internal fire. The inside of the dragon burns as hot as the sun (Like a fireworm dragon), however, the dragon's outside remains pleasantly warm. If it doesn't get enough fuel, it's temperature drops.

History:
Ziz is from a far off land, a whole sea away from Berk and anything near it (South America). He was worshipped as a god named "Quetzalcoatl" by the natives. However, things began to change, and he moved off, becoming a legend and a dark god to the natives. He flew for days, weeks, stopping on islands that peppered the sea and ate anything that fueled his fire... Eventually leading him to Berk, a few weeks before the defeat of the Red Death. He learned that these natives (Vikings) hunted dragons, and he was instantly agressive to them, but never engaged in combat. A few weeks after Red Death's defeat, he discovered Dragon island, and made his home, unknowingly, on the Red Death's skull. Soon, he discovered that the Dragons allied with the natives (Vikings), and soon became agressive to them too. Now he hunts, he kills, he destroys, he feeds, he continues. However, if he has learned about WHY the dragons are friendly with Vikings, he may stop.
Stuff: Collects goodies and food and carries it away to Red Death's island, hiding it in the dead beast's skull.
