Species Notes
Name means "Crowned Fisherman."
The Pecheur-Couronne was one of the two most common French dragon breeds (the other being the Pecheur-Raye). Sir Edward Howe has noted that both of these breeds "are more closely related to the Widowmaker breed than to the Reapers, if we may judge by wing confirmation and the structure of the breast-bone, which in both breeds is keeled and fused with the clavicle. This anatomical peculiarity renders them both more useful for breeding down into light-combat and courier breeds, rather than into heavy-combat breeds."
