Their sharp talons are helpful to climb on mountains even upside down, as shown by Cloudjumper, much like bats. Stormcutters have hooked fore-talons on their wings that can be used to pick dragon trap locks or destroy an entire war machine. The Guide to the Dragons, Volume 1 gives additional stats for the Stormcutter not seen with other species: Strength is rated at a '6', while Endurance is rated as '9'. A greater extent of their strength was shown in a deleted scene when Cloudjumper was able to rip apart one of Drago's war machines. They are also strong enough to support humans on not just their back, but on their tail.
Though, in that scene, the Stormcutter's saliva produces an intense flame that was difficult to control. It was shown in a deleted scene that the saliva of dragons other than the Monstrous Nightmare can be for the Inferno. Similar to a Monstrous Nightmare, Stormcutters also have flammable saliva. The fire is incredibly powerful, as Cloudjumper was able to ignite the entire Haddock House in seconds. Stormcutters can shoot a sustained blast of fire that is tornado-shaped, similar to the Typhoomerang. By doing so, they can see in all directions easily. They have the unique ability to rotate their heads about 180 degrees, like an owl. As demonstrated by Eir's Stormcutter, Stormcutters are capable of flying vertically to attack. When they even walk they use their lower wings as forelegs while holding their upper wings against their sides. Having four wings allows for exceptional maneuverability. This body structure allows them to demonstrate accurate flight techniques such as navigating through narrow and complicated spaces, or hovering and even rest in mid-air. Their 'X-wing' beats up and down in sync and are probably used for extremely tight turns and maneuvers and for fighting foes. They have a larger crown and tail fin, and the spines along their back are bright red and larger. Their wings are red near the body, at the base, and gradually lightens into pale pink towards the edge. Titan Wing Stormcutters look very similar to their Broad Wing counterparts, apart from differences in color and size. They have a three-finned tail, many spines down their back, and a large crown of spikes on their head that makes them look even more menacing. Their face has two long spines that branch off their brow to the side and they have a flattened, owlish face, making them seemingly brachycephalic. They have a very muscular and sturdy build. The wings can also come close together so they can appear to be one main pair. Stormcutter dragons walk on this second set of wings and their hind legs. They have owlish mannerisms and a second set of wings under their main ones. Stormcutters are known for their large size, iridescent fish-like scales, and two pairs of wings. There is a ridge with larger scales that run down its middle. The Stormcutter's egg is a large oval and has a prominent scale pattern. Other pieces of concept art show the development of the dragon's head, some of which include a pair of thick horns, which either faced downwards or backwards, in a similar manner to a buffalo's horns. It was red in color, with dark blue stripes on its back. It had a huge crest on its back, with thick spikes going down to its tail. Initial concept art depicted the Stormcutter with only two wings with very long claws and a head similar to a Skrill, except for the missing crown of spikes. Stormcutters were originally inspired by grey owls, great danes, vampire bats and an X-wing starfighter. This Sharp Class dragon can dart through the skies swiftly and stealthily. Stormcutters may be gargantuan but don't let the sheer size of its body distract you from the dragon's speed. You can never sneak up on a Stormcutter!įlying on four wings, the Stormcutter carves spirals in the sky and shoots fiery arcs of destruction at its adversaries. The four-winged Sharp Class flyer can turn its head so far around, it can see behind it. 9.2.5 DreamWorks Dragons: Dawn of New Riders.
