Ammonaut

is a shelled Complien that roams the skies. It belongs to the Air Element and grows from Paratrocher.
==Appearance==
It is a red molluscoid peeking out from a large gray spiral shell. On the sides of the shell are two pairs of aerofoils. Above its head is a propeller.
==Information==
===Habitat===
Ammonauts can be found in the skies of Colloidus in temperate and subpolar regions. In the evening, they return to their nests to roost, which are usually found in small caves or below overhangs.
===Biology===
The Ammonaut is a fearsome predator, taking to the air to better survey and attack foes on the ground without fear of retaliation. They can fire small gastroliths from their elongated hyponome, which impact with the force of a small-caliber bullet. Their eyes, normally rudimentary pinhole cameras, are augmented by an altered nictating membrane that serves as a lens, giving them excellent vision. Hidden beneath their hyponome is a sharp beak.
===Behavior===
Their sharp sight and ranged capabilities make them outstanding sharpshooters. They multiply their relatively light attack power by forming squadrons of 6-10.
Ammonauts are brutally pragmatic in their hunting. They knock Phasingers out of trees and immediately finish them off when Reincarnation activates. They pepper Aetalators with bullets to keep them away from water, which leads to the Aetalator running out of steam and falling helpless to the ground. They even attack Hypnoships, avoiding their hypnotic arms by flying in large circles.
Their favorite prey is the Copipou. When an Ammonaut squadron sights a herd of Copipou, they drive one of the Copipou away from the pack, then fire shots at the Copipou's eye. One shot is enough to blind the unfortunate Copipou, which allows the Ammonauts to descend upon it and tear open its shell with their beaks.
In the late spring, they begin their mating season. Female Ammonauts release fertilized Paratrochers above forests, where they fall into the tree canopy and gestate into new Ammonauts.
They are extremely aggressive against Selachaeroes. The two species will always attack each other on sight.

==Origin==
Some insights on 's origins.
===Name===
Its name is a mixture of "ammo", "ammonite", and "aeronaut".
===Design===
It was based on a nautilus and on the song Snoopy's Christmas.
==Trivia==
*In the coldest days of the Colloidal winter, Ammonauts and Selachaeroes will not attack each other. In fact, if one or the other has a fresh kill, they will share a small amount of food, then go on their separate ways.
