Third option.
I am God Gogito and I don't like them, that means they don't exist.

Okay we can all agree Wyverns are a cheap and crappy knock off of dragons though, right?

Wyverns are like bullpup dragons, though. They're more practical in most situations. _{Not to mention that I really think wyverns, as in smaller, bipedal dragons, appeared in earlier legends, so dragons are actually a higher-end knock-off of wyverns.}

My thoughts exactly. Which is why my favorite dragon is the Wyvern.

Plus, Wyverns are more scientifically feasible in my opinion, but that is just my opinion.

Actually, it's just plain impossible for something that heavy to fly solely on actual living wings, not to mention the obvious issues with aerodynamism and such ...
However, I've always thought that dragons/wyverns/big-flying-lizard-thingies would be possible, in a certain way. What they'd need is an organ that accumulates hydrogen gas somewhere in their bodies. This would enable them to float like zeppelins, and their wings would allow them to transform this into actual flight.
Moreover, hydrogen can easily be set on fire and reacts violently to chlorine and fluorine, which are usually found in living beings, so it could allow the creatures to breathe fire as well.
Great success.

The thing about wyverns vs dragons from a "scientific" point of view is that wyverns make much more sense evolution-wise. There are no six-membered vertebrates out there, so dragons, with four legs and wings, would have to be extremely different from everything we've got, whereas wyverns, having four members, are more "realistic". _{Or something like that.}

[Sithian Korriban]

My favourite are Drakes smaller but not quite knockoffs

[Lavan Tiri]

Sigh……9/11.

[Sithian Korriban]

Sigh……9/11.

It's the twelfth for me

Huh?

Personally, I've yet to read a good love scene between a human and a Wyvern, so Dragon wins that round.

Huh?

Ah time zones....

[Mnar Secundus]

Oh, NatSpi, about your anime RP. It should be obvious, but the app must require each character to have a theme

[Nature-Spirits]

Oh, NatSpi, about your anime RP. It should be obvious, but the app must require each character to have a theme

Theme? How so?

[Mnar Secundus]

Oh, NatSpi, about your anime RP. It should be obvious, but the app must require each character to have a theme

Theme? How so?

You know, like a theme song. Every anime character has one. Well, every important one.

[Nature-Spirits]

Theme? How so?

You know, like a theme song. Every anime character has one. Well, every important one.

Ah, yes. I shall add that to the app.

[Mnar Secundus]

Also, are you still looking for disadvantages? I was just watching some Fate/Zero scenes, and it occured to me that excessive arrogance is a very fatal flaw. It gets most of the über-powerful guys defeated. _{Yeah, that's not what actually happened there, but Gilgamesh embodies the trope, so it got me thinking.}
Bonus points if the character calls everyone "mongrel" or "dog"?

[The Armed Republic of Dutch Coolness]

Ah, yes. I shall add that to the app.

Get in there and fight, maggot!

Yeah, "maggot" works too, though I find "mongrel" to have a more oppressively scornful tone.
"Do not presume to touch me, mongrel," and such, you know.

[Finland SSR]

Ah, yes. I shall add that to the app.

Arrogance? Ooh, that's a bad thing to have in anime. Even in Dragon Ball Z - do you know how many times Vegeta died or almost died because of that?

I always make my primary characters arrogant though, because I am like that as well.

Well, yeah, that's why it's a disadvantage. I've never really managed to be interested in Dragon Ball, so I don't know about Vegeta's deaths, but I do know half the villains, anti-heroes, geniuses and other Magnificent Bastards in fiction end up defeated because of that.
I'm not arrogant, if anything I have some lack of self-esteem, but I often like arrogant characters, specifically when they are over-the-top about it. It's entertaining.

Ah, and NatSpi, would Genre-Savvyness count as an advantage? Or just a personality trait decided by the player?

Hmm.... I'd have to think about that one. I'll weigh out what advantages it could give to a character.

Genre-Savvyness? Basically, it means that you don't fall for the cliché developments like going on a monologue before killing your enemy, walking over to said enemy's apparent corpse to gloat without making empathically sure beforehand that he's actually dead, carelessly answering questions to which you shouldn't know the answer, etc.
It's always a huge advantage in fiction, but I don't know if it can be counted as such for the purposes of NatSpi's RP, since it is also a mere personality trait, and not one as forceful as gross arrogance.

Ah, that. NatSpi is working on an anime-themed RP, in which he intends to incorporate a chart of typical anime/manga character traits (advantages, disadvantages and neutral quirks).

Oh, okay. Interesting.
Don't forget, anime usually features drastic power increases and individual victory - victories achieved by individual, not team work.
