how many limbs do you normally have? no, tails are not limbs they are caudal extensions. and no arguing about limb counts qualifying/disqualifying dragonhood! if a dragons says they're a dragon they're a dragon.
I have six these days! Forelegs, hindlegs, wings. What more could a dragon ever need?
what's the rules for wings On the tail. asking for a really cool friend with four lifting surfaces
axial extensions from the spine, so they count. tails are just an extension of the spine which is why they aren't limbs.
haha radddd eight limb time
also the way you describe this in such a technical way for some reason has me thinking about some kind of large (science?) vehicle described in a similar sort-of-biological way and . ooh wouldn't that be fun to worldbuild..
could be. i'm just a stickler because i am a biologist and tails are just long spine-
I think it would depend on if they are fully articulated wings, or just frills/fins/etc that cannot move independently of the tail and at most be folded in by moving their stabilising spines
