Description

Algas are serpentine creatures that have the ability to gracefully glide upon air using there many kelpy wings. Algas have a plantlike yet draconic body and an ethereal glow, its body soaked in swamp water and mud yet still hauntingly grand. Because of this, these creatures are often mistaken for dragons or for incorporeal beings. Travelers often commend themselves to Algas in hopes of safe passage through the swamps they inhabit. Contrary to travelers beliefs, Algas are territorial and hostile, no amount of prayers can appease these beasts from striking their foes down where they stand.

Habitat: Swamp
