Portraits

Wyverns and Wyvern Monarchs are level 6 creatures of Fortress town. They are recruited from the Wyvern Nest.

"Wyverns and wyvern monarchs attack with swipes of their stinging tails. The wyvern monarch's stinger has a chance of poisoning its target for three rounds... Poisoning can only be removed by the cure spell." ^{RoE manual}

In addition to recruiting Wyverns from Wyvern Nests, they can be received as a reward from Dragon Fly Hives. They are also considered to be the worst level 6 unit, together with the manticores and scorpicores, bearing under-average health.

Heroes with a specialty

• Broghild the Beastmaster has wyverns as a specialty, which increases the attack and defense skills of any wyverns or wyvern monarchs for each level attained after 6th level and gives them a speed bonus of 1.
