Description
Couateys are one of the most feared residents of the Feywild. There isn't any real good reason for such fear, other than a possible case of mass ophidiophobia.
Couateys look like flying snakes with fangs that gleam with starlight. While they are notorious among common folk of the Feywild for inducing fear, the less moral and more desperate denizens know them for something quite different: their venom. While it is quite potent ordinarily, diluted couatey venom has effects similar to many kinds of drugs (such as nicotine or opioids), depending on what's added to it. The most common substance derived from this venom goes by many names, including luna, lux, and moonhigh. Moonhigh replicates the effects of marijuana and also has weak hallucinogenic properties. It is more potent if inhaled, but still works if injected directly into the bloodstream. Couateys can spit projectiles formed from a mix of their venom and saliva, which acts as a more potent version of moonhigh.
