 ''Fera Tempest Chiroptera'', or the '''Bat-Winged Lupynn''', is a smaller subspecies of the Lupynn. Aside from its size- roughly 75% that of a normal Lupynn- the core difference lies in its wings. These wings are, as the name suggests, leathery and batlike. The Bat-Winged Lupynn entirely lacks feathers and has a leaner head, and tends to gather in small packs, unlike its larger cousin. While still sapient, they are noticeably less so, and tend to live in mountains.

-As the Divine Spirit [[Kohal en Taelos]] frequently takes the form of a pale green and silver Lupynn, it is said in legend- and confirmed by those few who have spoken with her- that the species was created by the wind spirit herself. This raises questions about its relationship with the Euthoran wolf, which is instead an Earth-Aligned animal without wings. Due to its slightly more muscular build and pack tendency, it is believed that the wolf evolved as a split from early instances of the Lupynn. The latter, in the meantime, has evolved intelligence to the point of sapience and advanced vocal chords to the point of intelligible speech, including English, Latin, and rarely [[Drakine]]. They have also evolved a higher affinity for magic and spirits, giving them their signature auras.

-Despite its large size and perhaps because of its weight, the Lupynn is one of the fastest apex predators on Euthora, rivaling the [[Voidwalker]] for top speed on land and some species of [[Dragon (Euthora)#Lesser|Lesser Wyvern]] in the air. Reaching speeds of 80 MPH in level flight, 120 MPH in a dive, and 65 MPH on land, prey animals are usually forced to take cover among trees, leading to the Lupynn's typical territory. The Lupynn has an average lifespan of about 200 years.

 Lupynn are highly intelligent, reclusive animals, never forming packs, not mating for life, and indeed only staying with their mate for a short time- until the pups are old enough to travel with their mother. The father only rarely takes care of the pups after this point, but in the time between mating and departure, Lupynn are very much like wolves- both parents doting on the offspring. Pups depart to live on their own as soon as they are able to fly at two years old. The species appears to have an instinctual aversion to humans, keeping a respectful distance from cities. In some cultures, this distant nature and the species' unique abilities and intelligence make the animal worshiped as guides and guardians. This is also helped by the occasional fight between a Lupynn and a dragon over food, which may be seen by humans as the Lupynn preventing the dragon from attacking cities.
 ===Habitat===
-Lupynn are notoriously solitary creatures, and do not share territory with others of their kind. The only exceptions to this are briefly mated pairs and mothers with pups. They tend to live in low-lying hills, open grassland, and sparse forest. Oddly, they are only found on the continents of [[Acaran]] and [[Farixya]], appearing very rarely on [[Ethanol]], and not appearing at all on the [[Euthorica Islands]] or [[Forvolrasuls]]. They are rarely found within ten miles of large human habitations and have a vague rivalry with [[dragons]], though only via competition for food.
