The [[Kelpwings]] primarily live on land on the various islands scattered across the [[Thalora Archipelago]] (also referred to as [[Thalora]] or [[The Thalora Chain]]).

They are highlighted by their yellow "buds" on their chest and back. Sizes of these buds vary from being tiny to extremely large. Generally, each bunch has 3-9 buds total. Their heads are also topped by long, sleek, flowing, semi-transparent, green hair, resembling kelp/seaplants. This hair grows and can be cut without any pain or difficulty.

A primary danger to [[Kelpwings]] are storms, as the high possibility of windshear. It is not easy for [[Kelpwings]] to recover from windshear induced mid-air instability.
 
They are not safe in the sea either. Strong sudden rip currents can carry them far away almost without warning. These two especially affect [[hatchlings]] and younger [[fledglings]] who haven't had the chance to learn and adapt to such events yet. Some [[elders]] are also affected as they do not have the strength nor capacity.
 
'''Communication:'''
 
They speak a language called [["Strand ()"]]. There are various dialects of [[Strand]], varying by the region. These dialects do not alter the writing; it only changes the pronounciation. Almost all [[Kelpwings]] can speak the unified version of [[Strand ()]].
 
They generally have an Aussie-ish accent.

Kelpwings, also known as Kelplings, are a dragon species created by Kelpwing in 2022.

The Kelpwings are a dragon species originally inspired by Wings of Fire's Seawings and Leafwings. This has changed, though, as their design and story have evolved beyond the bounds of possibility in the Wings of Fire universe.


Note from Kelpwing

As of now, Kelpwings are also interchangeably called Kelplings. This is was set into motion in about late 2025 when I discovered the existence of a similar closed species also called Kelpwings by Wishfawn.
