Sky Monster

Written by orphidor

These strange, gravity-defying creatures bask in the skies of the Middle and Lower Realms. They can reach several hundreds of feet in length and float miles above the ground at all times.

Basic Information

Anatomy

They have long, snakelike bodies and four legs, though the legs don't appear to do much besides paddle mildly in the air.

Growth Rate & Stages

They grow continuously throughout their lives, though the rate of growth slows as they get older.

Ecology and Habitats

As their name suggests, sky monsters live above the clouds in the wide open skies of the Middle and Lower Realms.

Dietary Needs and Habits

They've never been witnessed eating. It's thought that they gain their energy from the light because, in the Middle Realm, they grow less active at night and revive during the day.

Additional Information

Geographic Origin and Distribution

They can be seen in the skies above any environment in the Lower and Middle Realms, apparently regardless of climate.

Average Intelligence

They aren't considered among the intelligent races, but judging from their flight patterns, they are smart enough to memorize landmarks and migration routes.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Their sight is very good. Their other senses are decent.
