In the French translation of this game, "wyvern" was translated as
[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varanus "varan"], a word which describes an
animal of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_lizard genus
varanus], e.g. the Komodo dragon.
"Wyvern" is clearly a mythological creature, however. Therefore, I have
translated it as [https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vouivre "vouivre"]. This
word is less precise than [https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wyverne
"wyverne"], but more common.
