[RPG] What happens if a sorceress’ dragon wings are damaged

dnd-5esorcerer

I have a 16th level sorceress who has just been taken hostage. Her dragon wings have been cut and almost destroyed.

At 14th level, you gain the ability to sprout a pair of dragon wings from your back, gaining a flying speed equal to your current speed. You can create these wings as a Bonus Action on Your Turn. They last until you dismiss them as a Bonus Action on Your Turn.

Does this paragraph from the Players Handbook mean that I am able to dismiss them and sprout a complete pair of wings?

Best Answer

Yup. You probably don't want to let your captors know that, though. It will take a full round for her to recover the ability to fly: first, she loses the mutilated wings, and then she regrows new ones (both are bonus actions, so you can't do them in the same round, unless you have extra bonus actions). Keep that in mind when picking the right gap in your captors' awareness and or readiness to exploit for your aerial escape.
