Nebula Glisanto

Nebula Glisantos are whale-like creatures. They can be obtained as a quest reward or purchased from the Genome Splicer. Lore-wise, they were discovered by the player character and Rosa Dhey in the "You realize that you haven't checked your messages in a while..." quest line.

### Capsule

"This huge capsule catches the light when you hold it up to the sky."

### Young

"In just a few months, this juvenile has already outgrown every space in the outpost and must be kept in a separate exterior area. Contrary to its behemoth size and cetacean appearance, it is airborne instead of aquatic and is surprisingly buoyant as well. It seems to relish the freedom of the outdoors, where it uses its many fins to carry out nimble turns and flips in midair. Lately, the small puffs of steam that it produces from its blowhole have been growing larger and larger."

### Adult

"It is a rare occasion to see even a single Nebula Glisanto—let alone an entire herd of seven or eight—in the wild. Despite reaching well over one hundred feet in length, these giant aerial mammals are notoriously hard to spot. They prefer to retreat into the high-altitude climes of secluded mountaintops, where they can remain undisturbed and hidden from sight. The dense, massive clouds that they periodically expel from their blowholes provide a handy source of camouflage; from a distance, a Nebula Glisanto is nearly impossible to distinguish from the cloud cover that often surrounds it. Herds are tight-knit family units that spend much of their time high above ground, only dipping down closer to sea level for certain months out of the year to filter-feed on insects and even small birds during their respective migratory seasons. While further research must be conducted to fully explain the Nebula Glisanto’s ability to remain afloat at such high altitudes, it is hypothesized that they possess a large bladder alongside their lungs that is filled with an extremely light gaseous compound."

### Cloud Variations

There is a rare chance that Nebula Glisanto's will be shrouded in a cloud once they've matured.

The type of cloud a whale may receive correlates to what the server time was at the time the capsule was obtained except for storm clouds which can be obtained throughout all 24 hours.

## Trivia

* TFO uses Esperanto as a basis for creature names (although it's not always exact—accents are ignored and spellings occasionally shift). “Nebula Glisanto” means “Nebula Glider.”
* During the testing for the quest, a Nebula Glisanto with Sunrise / Sunset clouds was accidentally generated at 1:36pm (uiBfr)
* Until approximately Dec. 3, 2021, Nebula Glisanto generated in a manner similar to common and uncommon capsules, with 50% odds of Aa, 25% odds of aa, and 25% odds of AA. After that date, Nebula Glisanto should generate in a manner consistent with other rares: 33% Aa, 33% aa, and 33% AA.
