Gliders
Unarmored phanatons can glide, usually from branch to branch, due to the loose skin between their arms and legs. The horizontal distance a phanaton can glide is equal to three times a normal long jump. If starting from a high place, as from a tall tree, add the starting height to the phanaton's height when calculating distance. While gliding, phanaton must spread their arms and legs to catch the air; they cannot cast spells requiring somatic components, or do anything requiring two hands. Although they cannot fight while gliding, they can end their glide on an opponent and attack if they have an action available. While gliding, they are incapable of gaining altitude. Phanatons take no damage from falls of any height, provided they can use their gliding ability and have enough room to land safely.
Their gliders require the phanaton to pay custom costs for clothing or armor. Phanaton warriors sometimes have holes sliced in their glider webbing, close to their torsos, to allow for armor straps to pass through.

Phanaton speaks Sylvan as their native tongue. They also know Elven and the Common tongue.
