Avrokan

The is a cancelled Developer Creature that represents former developer Rook (mishazhirov).
 
===Behavior===
* The is a big lumbering beast that tends to circle areas from high above, defending its allies on the ground with sustained attacks from the air. It always has one wing tipped in the direction it's shooting, to give itself a better angle to fight and to see.
* Aside from the first bullet point, the is quite lazy and has no issue with other creatures cuddling up to it.
==Appearance==
The is a quadrupedal creature that has an overall round and bulky look, covered in armor plates, with its head, beak, wings and tail mimicking the design of airplanes, having an almost straight-edged wingspan and a mid-sized and thick tail ending in a rudder-like tip.
==Trivia==
* Concept by Prince_Manticore on the Creatures of Sonaria discord. 
* When the concept was shown, it had a note saying; "No dev creatures will be added for a while, so do not expect this creature any time soon, but I did want to share this beautiful concept with you all. HE IS NOT COMING SOON, so please don't beg or bug Naut or any other devs for the lad. He will touch down when he touches down and not a moment sooner." 
* Inspired by Rook's moodboard, hippopotamus, marine animals, Yayomamafat's sketch, bugs, and aircraft.
* The planes in Rook's moodboard are specifically based on "amazing military aircraft, such as the AC-130 and C-17 Globemaster (quoted by developer Rook)."
* The "uncannily looks like my mascot, even though I didn't show off my boy when I was giving references! It's why I was so drawn to picking it (Quoted by developer Rook)."
* Questions about Rook's choices on Avrokan's stats/anatomy are answered below;
**Why is it so fat? How can it fly?
***"Well, that greatly depends on your definition. Avrokan is stout and hardy, which is something that the Ac130 and C17 have in common. They are very large planes with large figures. They're intimidating and fascinating to watch. In a way, it's like thinking about a bee fly. These machines are designed to near perfect parameters. If anything is off, don't expect it to fly. They are light for their size, intimidatingly large, and almost perfect. They are also much lighter than they first appear." - Rook (mishazhirov).
**Why is it all terrain? 
***"Planes are very interesting. Under circumstances where pressure is equalised, a plane and a submarine are near equal. One swims through the air, the other flies in water! ;)" - Rook (mishazhirov).
**It has nightstalker?
***"It sure does. The ac130 it's based on is known for magnificent night missions and the sensory apparatuses of that plane are incredible for it. For such a large target, the cover of night can be the advantage it needs." - Rook (mishazhirov).
