Abyssal howlers are fierce and feared predators of the abyss. The abyssal howler’s massive body possesses traits from many animals, but twisted to their most corrupt form. Their frame is that of a twisted feathery bat, with large wings, bony spikes protruding from its skin, a large stinger similar to that of a scorpion, and a monstrous head with many rows of sharp teeth. Lastly, abyssal howlers exudes fire from all parts of their bodies. It is rumored that the monstrosities possess hearts of flame, which might be what grants the abyssal howlers their powerful flame.
