It is no mystery where Howler Drakes got their names. Though not very bright, these emotive creatures employ an impressive vocabulary of loud chortles, shrieks, and songs to communicate with one another, and almost never stop chattering. Howler Drakes inhabit dense jungles, foraging in the fertile soil for mushrooms, tubers, and insects. When threatened, a Howler will flare its wings to display its bright red eye spots, while letting out an ear-splitting scream.

Though it may appear at first that dragons and drakes have much in common, the two are completely separate species. Drakes are smaller and less intelligent than their cousin species, though both dragons and drakes sit comfortably near the top of the food chain. They are always found bearing antlers and leathery wings. Drakes share many of the same habitats that dragons do, and typically hunt in packs.

He is significantly more dopey and reserved compared to his wild mother, Olivia. Shout gets easily stressed by tense situations and will very often panic the second things go south. It's easy to tell when one of these panic attacks comes on because he will not stop shrieking until the danger has passed. He takes more comfort in his father, Re, whose more calm attitude resonates better with him than Olivia's incessant mischief. Shout is not outwardly aggressive and gets along fairly well with other drakes and dragons alike. However, ironically, he is drawn more towards quieter creatures and tends to avoid the louder ones. The only dragons he legitimately can't stand are the Neotropicals that live in the sanctuary with him. By all accounts, these dragons are fine and sociable, but, as natural rivalries go, they can't stand each other. The same goes for Olivia. She, too, can get along with most anyone but this family. Sometimes, they can be heard arguing. Re usually steps in then.
