Dragons have changed a lot over history. From their origins as the giant snakes and serpents that guarded treasures and sacred places in Classical Mythology, they evolved into the monstrous images of Satan of Medieval myth, the fiery Tolkienian engines of destruction and the awe-inspiring godlike beasts of modern fiction. In recent fantasy art and fiction, some dragons are undergoing a new evolution — they're sprouting feathers. In terms of physical appearance, such dragons can vary from typical dragons with birdlike wings to ones bearing additional tufts or crests of feathers at various points of their bodies. More comprehensive Mix-and-Match Critters may have more even distributions of draconic and avian features, and some may even be primarily avian creatures with secondary dragon traits. There are, broadly speaking, three reasons for why a dragon might be depicted in such a manner: To signal that this is a more benevolent creature than most dragons. This is a direct application of Good Wings, Evil Wings — because people tend to like birds more than they like bats, swapping out a dragon's chiropteran membranes for avian pinions is a quick and convenient way of making it come across as more beautiful, benevolent and likeable to the audience. Even when these creatures are Feathered Fiends, they tend to be so in a Light Is Not Good sense rather than the monstrous evil of traditional dragons. To play up an association with Elemental Powers such as air or electricity. It's popular in modern fiction to have elementally themed or aligned dragons, and depicting dragons tied to sky-themed elements as having physical traits of the animals most strongly associated with air and the sky is a good way to visually reinforce such themes. Dragons are reptiles, and sometimes they're dinosaurs as well, and the concept that many dinosaurs had feathers is beginning to percolate into popular culture. Works tying dragons to the dinosaurs may depict at least some of the wyrms as feathered as part and parcel of the fact that the dinosaurs most likely to be associated with them, the predatory theropods, were primarily feathery animals themselves. See also Feathered Serpent, for another sort of feathered, reptilian beasts with their own cultural baggage (specifically, they call back to feathered serpent deities present in many Mesoamerican religions). See Dinosaurs Are Dragons for dragons and dinosaurs who are portrayed as related or interchangeable. See Catlike Dragons, for another portrayal of dragons with the characteristics of real-life animals. See Good Wings, Evil Wings. See Dragons Are Divine for dragons who are gods or like gods. |

Digimon: Birdramon and its black-feathered Palette Swap Saberdramon are for all practical purposes gigantic birds, but their names, toothy mouths and control over fire — including fire-based Breath Weapons — mark them as very avian members of the dramon family of draconic Digimon. Gatomon's final form, Holydramon, is an Asian dragon with five pairs of feathered wings. |

Disgaea has the Holy Dragon as a recruitable monster in several of its games. They are furry, feather-winged dragons slightly reminiscent of Falkor the Luck Dragon of The Neverending Story. They are loyal, righteous and have a strong sense of justice, in sharp contrast to most demons. The games do not specify if they are demons who have adopted the ideals of Celestia or are dragons from Celestia. | |

Monster Hunter: Bird wyverns are a subtype of the widespread wyvern clade distinguished by their strong resemblance to birds and dromaeosaurs. Many are prominently feathered as a result, such as how Maccao strongly resembles a real-life feathered dinosaur, and others — such as the owl-like Malfestio and the flightless Gargwa — are more like actual birds than anything else. | |

Golden Treasure: The Great Green: Most Draak-Kin are covered from head to tail in feathers, although it's unclear as to whether the Onyx Clan has feathers or not. Both birds and reptiles are also said to be cousins of Draak, diverged after the Skyfall that massacred the ancient Draak-Kin. | |

Fire Emblem: Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade: Fae is a Divine Dragon, which in this game are depicted as large, feathery dragons, unlike their depiction as just white and holy dragons in past games. Fire Emblem: Awakening: Grima is depicted with massive, feathered wings that span the width of an entire castle. This in no way detracts from his status as a Draconic Abomination. Fire Emblem: Three Houses: Macuil is a quadrupedal dragon with avian wings and talons, a feathered tail and a birdlike head and beak. |

ARK: Survival Evolved: Previous DLCs introduced wyverns. In the Aberration DLC there are no large flying creatures; however, there is a wyvern equivalent in the Rock Drake, a large reptile with plumage on its head, legs and tail that uses the feathers on its front legs and body to glide across the caverns. | |

Pathfinder: Sirrushes — Neutral Good planar dragons native to Nirvana who serve as heralds and servants to the goddess Sarenrae — are depicted with enormous, golden-feathered wings and tails ending in fans of feathers. Nirvana's other draconic natives, the bliss dragons, likewise sport avian wings. Yamaraj psychopomps resemble dragons covered in black feathers and sporting a pair of raven-like wings, fitting the semi-recurring corvid motif found among the psychopomps. 2nd edition goes further by portraying them with raven-like heads. |

Pure Light: Depictions of the ancient Light dragons show them with birdlike wings and feathered tail fans. Early chapters of the comic show wind dragons with birdlike wings and crests of feathers down their necks and on their cheeks. This is changed later in the comic's run, where they're depicted with regular wings and scaly ridges. |

The wings, and to a lesser extent, the beard, have always been depicted as being comprised of feathers, all the way down to the wings being avian in structure.

Pokémon: Altaria, a Dragon-type Pokémon, is a large blue bird with lots of puffy cloud-like feathers. When it Mega Evolves into Mega Altaria its cloud feathers gain a kind of iridescence. Latios and Latias resemble dragons and jet planes, but Pokédex entries describe them as having glass-like feathers. They apparently use them to refract light and appear as something else. Tyrantrum has a mane of feathers around its neck. This is due to it being based on Tyrannosaurus rex, making it a dinosaur, and many dinos being known to have had feathers. The Pokédex in Ultra Sun mentions that Tyrantrum is theorized to have had a more extensive coating of feathers back in prehistoric times, but are unable to be fully restored to this state. Pokémon White: Reshiram — one of the two legendary dragons of Unova — has this sort of appearance. Although the art style makes it difficult to tell if it's covered in feathers or fur, the fact that it has wings and is often shown flying does tend to suggest feathers. This◊ piece of official artwork seems to make it explicit. Pokémon Scarlet: Koraidon, the box art legendary, and Roaring Moon, the past paradox version of Salamence, are both Dragon-type dinos adorned with feathers to give them a ferocious and primal look. |

Magic: The Gathering: While most dragons in the game have the typical membranous wings, a few sport birdlike wings instead. Ugin, a spirt dragon planeswalker, has feathered wings to reflect his ethereal, enlightened nature. Two of the five draconic broods of Tarkir, which are incidentally born from magical tempests created as a side effect of Ugin's presence there, sport feathered wings. Dragons of the bloodline of Ojutai, which are spawned from magic storms in high, cold mountains and breathe ice, have great white-and-red birdlike wings, in addition to tufts of feathers on their legs. They're enlightened, monk-like and seemingly the most civilized of the dragons that rule Tarkir, but under the surface they're condescending, racist and arrogant, and just as tyrannical as the rest of Tarkir's draconic rulers. Dragons of the brood of Kolaghan, which are instead spawned on the windswept steppes and breathe lightning, have two sets of narrow birdlike wings. They're masters of the skies, and the fastest and most skilled fliers among Tarkir's dragons. |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Among the WIND-attribute Wyrms, there are "Dragonlark Pairen" (that looks like a cross between a dragon and a phoenix) and "Mariamne, the True Dracophoenix", a draconic being with white plumage instead of scales. "Orient Dragon" is a WIND-attribute dragon with two large plumed wings. Similarly, "Sky Dragon" is a purple-coloured WIND-attribute Dragon with a feathered tail, four feathered wings and eagle-like talons. "Imduk the World Chalice Dragon" (a quadrupedal teal dragon) and its larger counterpart "World Chalice Guardragon Almarduke" have large feathered wings on their backs. Other feathered Dragon-type monsters include "Gragonith, Lightsworn Dragon", the Rainbow Dragon archetype ("Rainbow Overdragon", "Crystal Beast Rainbow Dragon", "Rainbow Dragon" and "Ultimate Crystal Rainbow Dragon Overdrive"), "Buster Whelp of the Destruction Swordsman", and "Judgment Dragon" and its counterpart "Judgment, the Dragon of Heaven". |

Temeraire: Zig-zagged. Most of the world's dragons are the scaly kind, but the Mesoamerican breeds have colourful full-body plumage. This causes a minor altercation in the seventh book when an Incan dragon says that Temeraire's glossy black scales, of which he's very proud, look like he was horribly burnt. | |

Spyro Reignited Trilogy: Several of the Elder Dragons were redesigned with feathered wings, although many of them retain the traditional bat-like wings (and one dragon, Zander, even has wings made of crystal!). | |

Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Kanna's dragon form is covered in white feathers that are noted to be rather comfortable. At one point in her spin-off, she uses her partially transformed wings as a makeshift down blanket when Saikawa comes down with a fever. | |

Horn of the Abyss, a Game Mod for Heroes of Might and Magic III, introduces Couatl, feathered dragons, based on the mythological Feathered Serpent. Their base form is rainbow-colored, but when upgraded, they become scarlet and gain armor, representing bred-for-battle Attack Animals. | |

Fairy Tail: Grandeeney the Sky Dragon is a white wyvern-like dragon with birdlike wings. She raised Wendy, and from her account she was a kind dragon. Downplayed by Acnologia and Irene Belserion, as while they're primarily scaled their wings have a noticeable feather-like quality to them. |

Lunar: All of the adults dragons in the series have feathers, although the feathers on their body look like fur at first glance and they have some mammalian features. Baby dragons straight up look like cats with feathery wings. If Quark is any indication, Lunar dragons likely lose most of their feathers when they reach old age, and appear to have scales underneath. Downplayed with the blue dragons, which are covered in scales and only have feathers on certain parts of their bodies. | |

Pokémon Uranium: The Chicoalt line is a group of Dragon/Grass (and later Dragon/Flying)-types that resemble draconic creatures with avian feathers and beaks. The final stage, Coatlith, becomes a full Feathered Serpent. Likewise, Yatagaryu is an Electric/Dragon-type Pokémon that fully resembles a serpentine, three-legged bird. | |

Flight Rising: Some of the dragon breeds. Coatl dragons, who are based off the Aztec deity Quetzalcoatl, resemble feathered snakes. Skydancer dragons somewhat resemble large birds with draconic features. Banescale dragons aren't always feathered, but one of their genes can add a layer of feathers to parts of their bodies. Which makes sense, since the same dragon god who created the Coatls created the Banescales first. |
