A Wyvern lance is shorter than most of Xaldin's other weapons and has a light grey shaft. Its lower blade is dark red with an orange base and forks into two wing-like prongs. The upper blade is shaped like a stylized dragon's head with a circular, light grey eye and its mouth open. The dragon's head is dark red, while its "neck" is orange with black side edges.

Fittingly, Xaldin commands the Dragoon Nobodies and uses the Jump command, and ''Final Fantasy II'' featured Wyverns as the chosen mount for Dragoons, which were also introduced in that game.
