Species Notes

There was at least one Flecha-del-Fuego present at the Battle of Trafalgar that set fire to Nelson's flagship, the HMS Victory, before Laetificat scared him away.

Conflagratia was the dragon credited with helping Sir Francis Drake defeat the Spanish Armada in 1588. Her name stems from the Latin verb 'to burn', which might suggest a fire breather like a Flecha-del-Fuego, stolen from the Spanish either as an egg or by the capture of her captain.

It is also possible that the Flecha-del-Fuego is related to the Kazilik breed, especially due to the previous clashes between the Moors, the Muslim world, Northern Africa, and Spain. With the success of Iskierka producing an egg for Temeraire, the latter of whom belongs to a mostly infertile breed, it is also possible that the Flecha-del-Fuego may have developed from previous Kazilik [or Kazilik ancestor] crosses with native Spanish and Iberian dragons.

Origin of the Name

"Flecha-del-Fuego" means "fire arrow" in Spanish.
