A vouivre is a bizarre, two-headed, reptilian aquatic monster. While its head and body resemble an elongated, winged green wyvern, its tail resembles the upper body of a beautiful dark-haired humanoid woman. They spend their time bathing in pools and slow-moving rivers, preferring to prey on humanoid males and other people that come too near.[1]
Appearance
A vouivre is 12 feet long from end to end and weighs 500 pounds. Vouivres can breathe fire like a dragon, and rattle their scales to produce unnerving magical sonic effects.[1]
Habitat & Ecology
Vouivres reproduce asexually. After death, a vouivre's dragon head expels a ruby gem that serves as an egg. After growing for several weeks, a juvenile vouivre hatches and spends seven years gorwing to maturity and hunting waterfowl and fish. A vouivre can live for 200 years, and only need to feed every two months.[1]
Vouivres draw serpents of all kinds to them, and occasionally collaborate with evil fey, but otherwise dwell apart from other creatures. Vouires have a dragon's love of gems and treasure, although they sometimes use their hoards for unwary travelers.[1]
