Well Quetzalcoatl was a human shaped god who could take the shape of the feathered serpent. They seem as dangerous as any other dragon.

[Drakel]

agreed

vamp, I'm almost ashamed of you. Taking a legend literally? When have you ever done that?

The obvious inspiration of the Aztec god Quetzacoatl, Ampitheres are dragons with two feathered wings and no legs, the only dragon species with feathers. Their cross of reptilian and avian characteristics have led some dragonologists to doubt their existence, at least in their reported form, while still others claim that the reports are actually that of a wyvern. No conclusive evidence indicates that Ampitheres have any breath weapon.

is it true that they have two tongues? it is not impossible to see a reptile with feathers. sciencists discover that some raptors have feathers. how much feathers we are not sure, but some did have feathers. does any body else agree with me or facloner?

[Drakel]

I don't like to pick sides. So I am out on this one.

[kroatone]

True, some raptors did have feathers, hence scents say they evolved into modern day birds. Could some dragons have feathers? Sure, I still believe however that in the general sense, dragons have scales.

[raptor]

what is the difence between a ampirtune and a cuelebre? what are some myths about ampirtunes beside quezalcoalt's?

[vampirehunter42]

Just read about the battle with the great leviathan. Or read why Quetzalcoatl had to leave the Aztec lands? Or his method of leaving? Or ever wonder why they thought Cortes was him? He was a human shaped god, who could change shape. He was an ant once, does that make him an ant god? Anyway a lot of dipictions are shown as a human with quetzal feathers on him.
