Interesting Facts About Ukanlos
Order: Saurischia - Suborder: Wyvern Feet - Family: Ukanlos


 * Ukanlos is one of the three Gods and called the White God.
 * The other two are Akantor, the Black God, and Odibatorasu, the Sand God.
 * It was going to be an Elder Dragon at first from its power being beyond any normal wyvern but was put into the Flying Wyvern from it fitting better with them.
 * Ukanlos causes massive avalanches by accident from eating the ice and snow in the area.
 * Ukanlos can be found living within the Snowy Mountains.
 * Its unknown how much damage it can do but its believed to be very destructive though its feared that it'll pair up with Akantor and go on a rampage.
 * This is however unlikely due to Ukanlos and Akantor known to be aggressive towards each other.
 * Ukanlos seems to have split from Akantor before becoming their own species.
 * Ukanlos actually swims in the ice.
 * They seem to be calmer than Akantors.
 * Some of their shell is actually covered in minerals like Akantor but has instead hardening their shell.
 * The thick scales on its belly are actually both weapons and armor.
 * The scale on its back is used to cut through the ice like a fin.
 * Its jaws are strong enough to crush rock with a single bite.

Why is it an Elder Dragon-Level Monster?
Ukanlos was classified as an Elder Dragon, temporarily, after it was discovered. It was feared that it would eventually team up with Akantor and bring destruction to numbers of areas with Akantor. It is considered to be equal to Akantor in power and about as aggressive. Even when just being discovered carelessly, or living close to a village, some Ukanlos will attack settlements immediately without warning. This puts them at a level equal to Elder Dragons.

Honorable Mentions


I can't help but to also mention the Sand/Mountain Wyvern, which eventually became Odibatorasu!
