The Elder Wyvern is a unique, non-respawning Wyvern encountered during the mission Burning Hunger. Although initially "friendly", if the Fatemaker releases it without feeding it a Skeep, it will become hostile. If a Skeep is fed before release, it will thank the Fatemaker, grant them the Elder Wyvern Scale and fly away.
