Kelvin Shadewing's Pixels
Sorry to beat a dead horse so late in the game, but there's just one thing that kinda pops out at me in all this. not to add kindling to the fire here, Kelvin, but for future's reference

I'm...not sure how we, as we're not particularly mythical-beast enthusiasts are supposed to know what shadewings are without you telling us at first.
We're not supposed to easily just look at your avatar and think "ah, yeah - yep, that's a shadewing. right. i can identify a shadewing any day of the week now that i have seen approximately a fifth of one".

I wouldn't take it too personally, honestly. In fact, I'd try to embrace it and say "Why, that's not a dragon - it's a shadewing, a character I've created for my fictional work's universe. Let me tell you a little bit about shadewings". Then proceed to be the shadewing king.

The shadeking.

At first glance, I'd say that your character probably was a small dragon. A bit of a hairy one, but still draconian in nature. Now, I don't know a griffin from a sphinx so in the grand scheme of fantasy creatures I guess you could say I don't know my ass from my elbow.
We're not delegitimizing your self-created species - that was never anyone's intention. There's absolutely zero reason to get super-defensive about it. But we can't magically fathom your headcanon and readily accept it, knowing "yes, there's a difference between shadewings and dragons" right off the bat. Prior to reading this topic, I've never heard of a shadewing, so you can't really just discredit me for not knowing the existence of a mythical creature I didn't know about prior.

I just like, figured it looked like a thing I saw somewhere else, just like everyone else did in this topic. How on earth that turned into an argument is beyond me. >_>
