A skytail has a long, serpent-like body covered mostly with brown bark-like scales, and graced with numerous pairs of feathered pale green wings. One end of its body ends in a bulbous pink tail tip, while the other ends in a beetle-like face with scissor-like mandibles. These bizarre creatures can spend their entire lives flying, and are found almost exclusively in the upper atmosphere seeking out thunderstorms. They are capable of absorbing the energy of lightning, which serves as their primary food source. Other nutrients are on rare occasions hunted from high-flying birds, such as loftwings. |
