Lightning never strikes twice; Because it doesn't have to...

Name (of creature): Jupiter (Fulguraquilam jovi, Jove's Lightning Eagle)

Height: 26 feet
Length: 38 feet
Wingspan: 60 feet

Weight: Hi DG! I'm lazy and you'll probably correct me anyway so I'm leaving this all for you. :)

Base DNA: Golden Eagle, Peregrine Falcon, Prehistoric Dragon, Electric Eel, Porcupine, Platypus,

Abilities: Fast flight, Dive-bombing, Quick reflexes, Sharp talons and beak, Eagle-vision, Can lift heavy weights such as dead or live prey/foes,

Weaknesses: Lacks any armor beyond its scales. It needs time to recharge between electric shocks, usually around half an hour. If grounded it is put at a huge disadvantage since most of its combat techniques are for aerial combat, and its legs aren't as effective for terrestrial movement as other creatures' legs might be.

Defenses: Scales, Quills, Flight, Electric Shock, Quick reflexes,

Special Attributes: Jupiter can produce an electric shock, much like an electric eel does. They use this in conjunction with dive-bomb attacks to stun prey senseless the second they are in the Jupiters claws. Otherwise, Jupiter are fast and highly agile in the air. They use their tails as a counter-weight to make sudden turns, or flip a grappled opponent. Its size and the quills also make it an effective weapon. Often a Jupiter will incorporate a tail smack into flips to knock away opponents. For added effect, the tail-quills also contain Platypus venom to help wear and weaken opponents.

Description: Jupiter have the body, head, and wings of an eagle, legs of a falcon, a dragons' tail feathered like a birds' but with quills slipped in-between, and a short dragon neck. Beneath its feathers it has scales. The feathers on its upper side are golden, and those on its underside are a near-white grey.

LOGI Info: Jupiter are masters of aerial combat who specialize in taking out other flying creatures mid-air. When hunting, a Jupiter will get as high in the air as it can and then, just as a Peregrine Falcon does, it will tuck in its wings and make a dive-bomb. Jupiter however take things a step further by stunning the creature with an electric shock upon grasping them in its talons. A Jupiter will also target its victims' wings and shoulder with its sharp-pointed beak so as to render it flightless during this attack.

While the "lightning strike" attack described above is often enough to take out prey, should a Jupiter face a true fight it has other tricks up its sleeves. Fast flying, agility, and using its tail as a counterweight combined with beak and talons make Jupiter excellent at melee aerial combat and grappling. Again, much of its focus will be on disabling its opponent either by damaging their wings or if possible by stunning them. However, in such combat it's tail also becomes a good weapon for smacking into foes, particularly in combination with other maneuvers. Invenomated quills among the tail feathers in particular make its tail attacks a potential game-changer.

Jupiter make their homes in the highest places they can find -usually mountains- and keep to high in the air. Flying creatures are of course their main prey, but they will also attack small terrestrial creatures given a good opportunity.

Although Jupiter mate for life, females only take a single mate while males are well known to take many partners. Females are tasked with looking after the young and maintain small territories, while males have a territory spanning multiple female territories and do nothing to help in the raising of their young. Even if they share a mate (which they often do) the females have no tolerance for other females or their young.

Other: So I have mixed feelings about Jupiter.

I had three main goals with him. First, to make more-or-less a flesh and blood lightning bolt. Second, to make a master of the skies. Third, to make behavioral references to Jupiter's many endeavors and Juno's (put it mildly) dislike of them. In all those regards I believe I was successful and I'm happy with how it turned out.

Where my feelings mix is this. It really doesn't have anything particularly special about it. Electricity is common-place around Genome, and all around it's just an amped up falcon. I'm also unsure of how it will work in battle at this point. The "Lightning Strike" is really awesome if it works, but on the same hand when it does work it is a OHKO which doesn't make for an overly exciting battle. Put in a true battle setting, I've tried to give it some good weapons but... then I look at something like Wraith.

Meh, I guess I'll just have to see how he works out.

Only thing I can see is that on the tail it's supposed to be feathers all along it of the same sort as a normal birds' tail feathers. Any chance it isn't too late to add those in to the pic?

I actually did feather the tail, but it's all but impossible to see in the image. I'll make the lines a bit stronger so that they're more visible. One question, would the quills protrude through the feathers (As in the current drawing), or would they be completely covered?

Some would protrude, others wouldn't. Probably only around half or so would be visible.

I tried to make the tail a bit more noticeably feathery, but sorry if they still aren't that visible.
