They, like Ephedverns, appreciate hot and dry environments, despite originating in Anomella. Because of this, few Khorovern remain in Anomella, especially after [CATACLYSM], but have migrated to the equatorial desert regions of Drakomere, like Stlaakh in Drakion.<br> | ||
They often have a god complex and enjoy being worshipped, this has caused many to fall to Aberrant corruption. A few city states in Kalakwaela do worship specific Khorovern as gods. They also have extremely long lifespans, some of the longest among Vegetative Dragons. Not only do are they extremely venerable, they never stop growing, even after their final molt, allowing for incredibly ancient, and incredibly large Khorovern, which adds to the mythology that allow some of them to be worshipped so fervently.<br> | They often have a god complex and enjoy being worshipped, this has caused many to fall to Aberrant corruption.

Their bodies are rounded, woody, stubby, and rough, with two very large leaf-like wings splitting from their backs. On their backs between their wings is an opening, almost like a split seed, from which many little buds sprout, and a nectar is produced. This nectar is often given to faithful followers of theirs, claiming it to be a reward and blessing. As they age, Khoroverns wings keep growing, and once they reach Elder stages, their wings begin fraying into ribbons, though they are still useful for flight. While juvenile, Khoroverns wings are smaller and pink. On rare occasion, a mutation allows Khoroverns to be born with three wings, instead of two. | Their bodies are rounded, woody, stubby, and rough, with two very large leaf-like wings splitting from their backs.
