The Acklay is a three-eyed amphibious crustacean. Though Acklays live some of their lives underwater, they could go on land to hunt, which they frequently do. These creatures have small stomachs but were capable of expanding them when necessary. They had a high metabolism, which gave them substantial amounts of energy but also caused them to starve quickly. Acklays are aggressive creatures, making them favorites in gladiatorial combat. They can breathe underwater, due to special gill-like organs in their throats. Their chitinous shells tend to be shades of greens when they are younger, which turn harder and darker as they grow, becoming brown as adults and becoming black when they are elders. These Acklay have been tamed and trained as mounts. Their bloodlust is still there, only barely contained by the shackles of dominance. In order to ride one, you need an Exotic Saddle.
