Legless Coatl

Legless Coatls (also called Sneks) are amongst the first of the archcoatls and the first direct creations of Confetti. They are easily recognizable by their complete absense of limbs and are defined by their unique snake-like body movements and are the most populous coatlshops in Mutatia.

Appearance
It is easy to mistake a coatlshop for a Legless Coatl. However, by strict definition, Legless Coatls of the archcoatl rank in particular do not have any sort of malformations except for their absense of legs. They are otherwise perfectly normal in physiology and structure, though some may struggle to fly long distances or balance themselves.

The most common of Legless Coatls have a green and white color scheme (as seen in the picture to the right), though they may also come in different colorations and patterns.

Legless Coatls come in varying sizes usually ranging between that of a normal-sized Coatl to as big as half the size of an Imperial. Larger Legless Coatls are rare and usually do not live as long as others of their species.

Most Legless Coatls are born of the Wind element, though they may also take on other elements.

Personality
Legless Coatls are typically very laid back and relaxed, preferring to stand by and watch things happen from a distance. They take great joy in making others around them smile or laugh. They typically are not good with dealing with serious situations and cannot behave outside of their childlike demeanor in most cases. A serious Legless Coatl is often seen as a negative mutation.

Batling/Hunting
Legless Coatls have the same dietary habits of normal Coatls. However, they must compensate for their lack of limbs in order to catch their much-needed seafood daily. Legless Coatls typically prefer freshwater fish rather than fish from the ocean, as they hate the taste of salt. They are decent swimmers, but cannot stay in the water for very long.

When battling, Legless Coatls prefer to use hit-and-run tactics, slithering up at blinding speeds to strike out with their long fangs before retreating in a flurry of feathers. They rarely use their elemental powers in the middle of battle except for healing.

Social
Legless Coatls speak in the same language as normal Coatls. Some are capable of learning basic draconian tongue, but cannot fluently speak it. They easily make friends with other breeds, but are wary of befriending dragons larger than themselves.

In clans, Legless Coatls typically take on the role of fisher or prankster.
