Yep, hence why I said fringe canon, only speculation, but regardless it's an interesting thing to read!

Re: All mounts to work as ground mounts in WoD!
Wait a sec, are you implying that the skies will be filled with Monstrous Kaliri? I think everyone who tried to mount up and fly in Skettis back in TBC days will remember how nightmarish those birds where! *shivers*SpiritBinder wrote:I'm guessing the Arrakoa will be pretty prevalent in the skies, in some places in Draenor, but how far that stretches we don’t know, we know so little about them really. What would be neat is if there was some kind of sever event/battle/story or something that took place to regain access to the skies.

So....it flies by farting?Vephriel wrote:Oh man, the Netherdrake races....they were intense! I actually really enjoyed them, even while they were frustrating, because it was the best feeling ever when you completed them all.
I'd really rather more mount earnings in those styles. ^^
As for the rays, I think we have this floating around, though it's fringe canon:Nether rays have a unique way of achieving flight; their "wings" being tiny in comparison to other flying animals. They use the special gland on their underside to excrete spores that produce lighter-than-air gas. This gas produces a pocket under the ray that keeps it afloat, and the ray uses its "wings" to keep the gas pocket under its body. To achieve propulsion, the ray uses its "wings" to squeeze the gas towards its tails, where it streams the gas with its two feather-like tails, and undulates its third paddle-like tail through the stream, giving the nether ray added lift and propulsion. Since the nether ray uses gas to counteract gravity instead of "fighting" against it using lift, it is able to perform just as well as other flying animals, despite its small size.
