Void Whales

Void Whales are a species native to the End. These animals are able to fly through the Void with their six fins. They have blue skin; their top half is protected by a black shell. Because they are durable, extremely large and yet naturally passive, Void Whales have long been a common form of transportation in the End — even with the advent of End portals, End ships, and ender dragon taming.
Designed by Old Chad Roman, the Void Whales first appeared in the War of the Ender Kingdoms trailer's background. One appeared briefly in the pilot episode "The Brave".
==Information==
The Void Whale consists of a large blue whale-shaped body. It has a dark carapace along the top of its head and its back, and three sets of fins with cyan undersides. It has golden coloured eyes and a large cyan hole in the front of its head for its mouth. 
It is described in its submission document that they can fly and 'swim' in the vast space of the End, and if provoked, they can consume enemies and islands with the void mouth it possesses. Furthermore, they are described as pacifistic and resilient, with magic-based attacks being more effective in damaging a Void Whale.
=== Riding ===
Before End Portals, End Ships, or Ender Dragon taming were developed, the ancient endermen used Void Whales to carry them between islands. Today, Void Whales remain a common form of transportation in the End.Olaguer, Rain Allen [@rainolaguer] (October 13, 2023). "Before ships, portals, and ender dragon taming, the ancient endermen traversed the end islands by riding void whales." (Tweet). Retrieved December 11, 2023 — via Twitter. They are efficient for carrying large numbers of passengers or cargo between the Ender Kingdoms and do not tire easily.Olaguer, Rain Allen [radapedaxa] (November 10, 2023). "Yes. Here's a list of the most common forms of transport in the Ender Kingdoms" (Discord message). Retrieved December 11, 2023 — via Discord.
==Trivia==
*The Void Whale's design was made by Old Chad Roman of the Rainimator Production Team. 
**This design was the second iteration of the latter. The first design of the Void Whale looked more like an octopus or squid. The first iteration was a recreation of the Void Whales present in Convexity, a space-like realm found in the game series "The Legend of Spyro." 
*The Void Whale is the first character submission that has been implicitly accepted by Rain and the Prod Team. (accepted without being announced in #accepted-character-ideas).
