Skytiger

A large and powerful beast, the reptilian **Skytiger** is the apex predator of Aleria's jungles.

## Description

The skytiger is named after its colouration, which is mainly orange with black stripes. It has four eyes, two on each side of its head and sports two crests, one below the chin and one on the top part of the head. The skytiger has two pair of wings. Its front ones usually span around 12 metres and its rear ones are rather shorter. At the tip of each front wing are "blades" which can either separate or unite to form a single membrane. To assist it in flight, it also has a ventilation system not unlike that of birds.

More similarities between the skytiger and birds include its hollow bone structure and its two legs, each ending in strong talons to either grip prey or surfaces to perch on. Like the swallow, it has two long tails.

## Relationship with people

Skytigers are believed to be the descendants of Alerian dragons who were horribly changed by the dark magic of The Shadow and lost their sapience as a result, in addition to gaining wings and other physiological changes. This theory, however, is still cultural and more study is required to determine whether it is actually true. Like their supposed ancestors, skytigers are symbols of power, majesty, and. They are also associated with the sky and the Violet God.

Dwipantarans are known for their use of exotic and unique wildlife in war. The skytiger is no exception. The few warriors who are brave enough to tame, train and raise one have earned the honour of mounting this fearsome creature, equipping it cooling harnesses and weapons, such as machine guns and rocket launchers, reducing the enemy morale as the animal looms over them and rains death.

Baleful Bass

> "*Prized by Marhuman fishers for its savory smoky taste, the Baleful Bass has served as a staple for many generations.*"
> ― An outsider's perspective
>
>

**Baleful Bass** are small-to-medium sized saltwater fish found in the Baleful Bay, around the Shriekwind and Freja Islands; and in aquaculture ponds.

## Description

Baleful Bass have masses between 3.5kg and 8.5kg, though specimens as large as ten kilograms have been recorded. Coloration varies between islands, but the majority of caught Bass exhibit polychromatic scales that gradually dull over time to a normal silver finish as the specimen ages.

Baleful Bass are found only in the cold waters of northern Breaca. Populations fluctuate throughout the year, but it is believed that they are least threatened by extinction owed to their rapid growth in the winter months.

## In Captivity

Marhuman Exiles typically keep aquaculture ponds housing hundreds or even a thousand or so Baleful Bass at once. Baleful Bass are remarkably suited for aquaculture, but care must be taken to prevent overpopulation as Baleful Bass reproduce rapidly and require considerable quantities of shad, plankton, and saltwater for proper growth.

Marhuman

> "*An amicable yet shy race, Marhumans are a rare species of humanoids confined to the northern islands of Breaca. Highly communal and supportive of each other, the Marhumans have endured a dark, sickening distant past under the Shadow– and survived to escape when the Shadow dissipated.*"
> ― An outsider's perspective
>

**Marhumans** are a species of sapient humanoids

## Physiology

Originating from Noreia towards the end of the Shadow's existence, Marhumans share similar features with other aquatic races: Piercing black orbs of eyes with thin irises, sets of fins along their head, arms, and legs; a preference for humid environments, and patches of scales are the defining characteristics of these meta-humans, giving them an otherwise piscean appearance compared to sea elves. Yet, as suggested by their varying hues of brown skin, a near-human bone structure, and their sets of ten webbed fingers and ten corresponding toes, Marhumans are undeniably related to baseline humans, having been subject to enslavement and "augmentation" by the Shadow for the purpose of underwater coastal mining.

House Lintosh

Specialty/Role: Lumber

Ruler: Atticus Ryker Lintosh "Ol' Ironside"

Colors: Brown, Dark Green, Bright Green

Flag: See Picture

Symbol: Double-bladed Axe (sometimes depicted with the shaft wrapped with red cloth), though not an official symbol wolves are quite synonymous with House Lintosh, as they are well known for being strong and loyal to their pack.

Traditions: Feasts, Bonfires, and Competitions.

About: About: House Lintosh is a fairly large house consisting of wood cutters, lumberjacks, and expertly skilled carpenters. They have moderate influence(mainly middle and lower class), showing their ability to provide for their people, push for reforms, and provide strong moral example. The house is lead by Atticus Lintosh who rules fairly and wisely over his house, everyone within house Lintosh is a skilled craftsman and has great strength to boot as a result from hard manual labor. They also have some extensive combat training, as is required for such a dangerous profession. Though not solely bred for combat, members of house Lintosh can certainly hold their own, as well as have a strong sense of camaraderie which makes them protective of one another and their benevolent leader. Though their primary focus is agriculture and as such they try to avoid conflict whenever possible, with their military function serving more or less as a last resort militia. There are no rankings per se in House Lintosh(minus the house leader of course), merely those with varying levels of mastery over a certain skill are given different jobs. However, those whom Atticus deems worthy to be his advisers share slightly greater privileges. But nonetheless, all members are treated with the same respect. After a long hard days work most head to the meeting hall for an extravagant and jovial late dinner, with feasting and on occasion... some drinking games.
Vampire

**Vampires** are sentient, humanoid creatures in Meridia. They are considered attractive by most other sentient creatures, especially humans, due to their naturally slender build, their skin colour (which is paler than most humans of their respective races) and the pheromones they excrete through their skin.

The most defining characteristic of vampires is their hunger for the blood of others. Other traits of vampires can include unnatural physical strength and enhanced healing powers. Many vampires are highly sensitive to sunlight and therefore only go out
 at night or in the shade, but this is not always the case. Regardless, the secretive and predatory nature of the creatures means that they all
prefer the cover of darkness.

## Dwipantara

Dwipantaran vampires are descendants of immigrants from the Dragon Empire. They have adapted to life in the tropical kingdom, being unharmed by sunlight and able to consume most, if not all human food. This, along with their charming disposition, make them a generally pleasant and agreeable people, though some can be deceitful and (rarely) even cruel.
Fairy

Fairies are humanoid, sentient creatures native to the Aleutian Islands, an archipelago north of the continent of Noreia in the world of Meridia; they are most common in the Confederacy of Cynosure, where they make up a majority of the local population.

## Cynosure

### Physiology

Fairies are the lightest and shortest humanoid species of Meridia, the average fairy being 12 centimeters tall and weighing 35 grams. They have slender frames, and it is very hard for them to gain either fat or muscle.

Due to the very low levels of testosterone produced by the average fairy, fairies are completely devoid of body hair, and even the male specimens of this humanoid species have a somewhat androgynous appearance; fairies are also the most neotenic out of all humanoid, sentient species, in that they retain the appearance of an adolescent human being from their birth to their death. They are set apart in appearance from human beings by their bioluminescent skin and insect-like wings.

Fairies have developed characteristics similar to those present in eusocial insects, being subdivided into three castes: king fairies and queen fairies are the only fertile fairies in any given community, and the most long lived as well, their average life span being of 25 years. They are oviparous mammals: fairy queens incubate several dozen eggs inside their bodies every season, that can be internally fecundated by several dozen fairy kings - it is in theory possible for each egg to be fecundated by a different male fairy, to ensure genetic diversity. Fairy kings tend to be hairier and more muscular than the average fairy, while fairy queens tend to be bigger and plumper.

Fairy workers are by far the most common fairy caste, living around 19 years, while fairy soldiers are the shortest lived fairy caste - rarely living longer than 13 years - as well as the most fit and muscular, even more so than fairy kings.

When fairy eggs are hatched, all newborn fairies belong to the soldier caste; according to the needs of the community, they can be turned into kings/queens or workers through hormones and magic, a process that can also be undergone by adult fairies - it is not uncommon for a soldier fairy to become the king/queen fairy of a new colony, if deemed suitable enough for the role by the members of their community of birth.

Fairies become self-sufficient shortly after birth: fairy communities are covered by a network of subconscious magical and telepathic connections between the members of the species, and bits and pieces of disparate knowledge are thus thrust into a fairy's mind shortly after their egg has hatched.
Hammerhead Rhinoceros

The **Hammerhead Rhinoceros** is a large mammal endemic to Aleria, sometimes seen in the tropical continent's savannahs and rainforests.

 Description

The average hammerhead bull is 3 meters tall and 6 meters long and weights several tonnes. Both bulls and cows have hammer-like structures on their heads, hence their names. A strong armour covers its front and top, enabling it to withstand punishment before dying.

## Behaviour

   The hammerhead rhinoceros is a social animal, travelling in small herds of 5-7 individuals. Despite its size and strength, its are relatively shy and docile, often choosing to keep away from unfamiliar humans or other sentients instead of fighting them. When it is angered or threatened, however, it will raise a large "fan" of brightly colored feathers on the top of its head and roar, before charging whoever or whatever is brave (or stupid) enough to provoke it.

It can be somewhat territorial to other hammerheads from different herds, despite its usual peacefulness, especially during mating seasons. Still, it's not above working together with fellow hammerheads, regardless of herd, when faced with a predator powerful to kill it, such as the skytiger.

## Relationship with people

The hammerhead has been a stronger, yet slower alternative to deers and tigers as war animals, especially for orcs, since the time of Mappanganro I in Dwipantara. Aside from war mounts, hammerheads are also used as beasts of burden thanks to their strength.

In Dwipantaran culture, the hammerhead is regarded with a certain degree of respect, though not as much as the skytiger. It is seen as a symbol of patience, perseverance, wisdom, strength, compassion and longevity. They are also associated with the earth and earthquakes due to their size and durability.

## Trivia

* The hammerhead rhinoceros is based on the hammerhead titanothere from *James Cameron's Avatar.*

Human

**Humans** are the most common sentient species, being the main race of over three nations in Meridia.

## Dwipantara

(Most) native Dwipantaran humans are slightly shorter than those from other continents, especially Noreia, Elysia and Breaca. They usually have skin ranging from light brown to darker shades of brown. Many, if not all, have straight, black hair and black eyes.

### Muladi

Though most of the warriors, traders, and religious figures of the White Caliphate eventually decided to either go back home or found their own nation after liberating Dwipantara from colonists, some decided to stay and marry the locals. Due to their backgrounds in a nation of such piety, most Muladi become clerics, monks, or people involved with the Angel's Religion in another way. Appearance-wise, these hybrids have larger noses than the average Dwipantaran, as well as having wavy or curly hair.

### Puapuan

The humans of Puapua have larger bodies than the average native Dwipantaran. In addition to this, they also have darker skin colour and curly hair.

### Peranakan

The Peranakan is a subrace of humans born from a union between a native Dwipantaran and an immigrant from the Dragon Empire. They have a unique culture, combing elements from both native Dwipantaran culture and culture from the Dragon Empire. Due to their Dragon Empire genes, they have brighter skin, smaller eyes, and taller bodies than the average Dwipantaran. They are considered attractive, but some natives dislike them since they view the Peranakan as those who steal land, jobs, etc from the natives. The governments of the Kingdoms of Dwipantara generally favour peaceful Peranakan over troublesome natives.
Troll

Trolls are sentient humanoid creatures native to Meridia.

## Dwipantara

Dwipantaran trolls are tall and slender, approximately 3 meters in height. They have large eyes and a long tail. Their skin is blue, with darker stripes. Before they were assimilated into Dwipantara, they were primitive hunter-gatherers, with technology and faith similar to people of the Paleolithic epoch. Now, however, they are just as civilized as other races in Dwipantara, though some living in rural areas still stick to their ancestor's way of life. Currently, most Dwipantaran trolls are adherents of Christianity, though a small number of them follow The Angel's Religion.

### Physiology

Dwipantaran trolls, having strong bones and larger frames, are more durable and stronger than humans. They also have a slightly higher metabolism, thus explaining their above-average healing factor and appetite. Dwipantaran troll cells allow colour change, enabling Dwipantaran trolls to blend in with their surroundings, appearing to be invisible.

### Weaknesses

As their camouflage is only a colour change and not true invisibility, their shadows are still visible, albeit less clearly.

## Trivia

* Dwipantaran trolls are based on the Na'vi from *James Cameron's Avatar*
How to draw a Warrior Cat

This is the art class for the March 1 issue.

## Step 1

Start by drawing two circles and an oval. These will be used as guidelines for the body. Make sure you draw them lightly!

.

.

.

## Step 2

Next add a ear and muzzle to the head.

.

.

.

## Step 3

Add the head fur, eye, and the nose.

.

.

.

## Step 4

Draw the chest fur and a front leg. Legs can be tricky, so don't get discouraged if it doesn't look right your first try.

.

.

.

## Step 5

Now draw the back of the neck and the back. For a short-haired cat, you might want to make the neck smooth instead of fluffy.

.

.

.

## Step 6

Add the back leg and the belly.

.

.

.

## Step 7

Draw the tail, the other ear and leg, and add the whiskers.

.

.

.

## Step 8

Now the only thing left to do is to color your cat. If you're using paper, it's not a bad idea to go over your lines with pen before coloring. Make sure you erase the guidelines!
The S.T.E.M System

The **Society, Technology, Economy, Magic System**, or **S.T.E.M** **System**, is an important mechanic in Meridia.

## Description

At the heart of Meridia's worldbuilding is the STEM system. STEM stands for Society, Technology, Economy and Magic, and serves as an overview of player nations. When registering, players are required to fill out their STEM ratings, which will give them the beginnings of their nations. From this chosen STEM, players are free to create whatever suits their fancy, so long as it remains within the confines of their chosen STEM ratings. Players start with 14 STEM points and can reshuffle their points every 3 months in real time. Every year, 1 point is awarded to players to reflect advancements their nations have made.

Players are allowed to have small amounts of characters or items that don't correspond to their STEM, to an extent. However, these exceptions should be few.

> "*Players are also allowed some leeway. If, for example, you're a Tier 0 magic, having 1 or 2 characters having some magical affinity is allowed. Another example would be a Tier 2 technology level (bronze age), but due to braving the horrors of a Shadow ruin, a character has a magical steel sword, or a steampunk pistol or some such item. In summary, small discrepancies for characters is fine. The STEM is meant as a general rule, but there are always exceptions.*"

Ask Aunt Amethyst

*Will be updated as I get more questions*

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Ask Aunt Amethyst section! A few of you have PMed me your questions. Thank you so much!

**Dear Aunt Amethyst, why do we call questions questions? -The Questioner of Questions**

Thank you for your question, Questioner! I'd guess because they're part of a quest for answers? I'm not really sure. I even Googled it and there was no real answer. You asked a good question! Guess it was foretold by your name ;) ~Aunt Amethyst

**Dear Aunt Amethyst, why is the violet (the flower) called a violet if it's blue? -Mysterious Person 101**

Thank you for your question, Mysterious! I think violets are actually purple, but most people think they're blue because of the poem verse "roses are red, violets are blue". That verse is reeeeally old, before there was a concept of the color purple. ~Aunt Amethyst

**Dear Aunt Amethyst, if you hit yourself and it hurts, are you strong or are you weak? -Ethereral Dreamer**

Thank you for your question, Dreamer! It probably depends on the person, but both, really. :P ~Aunt Amethyst

Baleful Beacon

> "*Created by an ancient gemcutter under extreme duress, the Baleful Beacon once calmed the skies above the Baleful Bay for the Demons' east-westbound vessels. One day in the distant past, the lighthouse collapsed, and the Beacon fell away into the seas. Today, its knowledge is limited to those with the ability to experience history, and its whereabouts remain unknown.*"
> ― An outsider's perspective
>
>

The **Baleful Beacon** is an orange-red, square-cut gemstone approximately 0.75 meters long per edge with a self-illuminating, shimmering finish. Created sometime during the early First Era in Breaca, the Baleful Beacon sat atop an obsidian column and provided ample light for Demonic ships passing through while also suppressing the Baleful Bay's rainstorms.

One week after the Shadow lifted, the obsidian lighthouse collapsed, and the Beacon fell into the sea as it lost its self-illuminating glow, forever covered by the darkness of the oceans as deep currents carried it away.

Its whereabouts remain unknown.

## Abilities

The Baleful Beacon had the ability to tame the Baleful Bay for which it was named. Drawing energy from a Demon mage or a sufficiently-skilled mage, the Beacon required uninterrupted concentration for up to an hour before its full effects began. When it was active, however, the Baleful Beacon cleared the Baleful Bay's skies by disrupting air and sea currents in North Breaca, diverting moisture elsewhere or otherwise dumping it into the seas near the buffer's periphery.

Due to its age, relative unfamiliarity, and possible wear, it is unknown whether the Beacon's full power can ever be realized in the post-Shadow world. Low-level mages might find it difficult to protect the waters surrounding a ship, while higher level mages may be able to protect an archipelago or peninsula by starting the Beacon. Regardless, if discovered, studying the Beacon itself might lend clues as to how the Demons subjugated Meridia's more hostile environments, opening further paths of magic previously thought intractable.

It is unknown whether the Beacon works only in the Baleful Bay, or if its properties can be exploited elsewhere.

Orc

> "*Strong and robust, orcs are known for their savagery and strength at arms. But not all of them are dumb brutes who smash, for many are prized craftsmen, builders and leaders. And while a rabbit is a poor comparison to an orc, they do have a shared affinity for reproduction.*"
> ― Meridia official website
>
>

**Orcs** are large humanoids in Meridia.

## Dwipantara

Dwipantaran Orcs have either green or red skin. Some of them have tusks protruding from their mouths. They have a history of bloodshed, with their previous leader siding with the Shadow-serving Walanda, causing a civil war. Their current leader, however, prefers diplomatic approaches as he is tired of conflict. Their large, strong bodies make them excellent warriors and blacksmiths regardless. With the discovery of firearms, most Dwipantaran blacksmiths switch to making cannons, rocket launchers, and other heavy weaponry. Aside from warfare, they also seem to harbour a passion for the culinary world, planting various spices and using them in great combinations, making their cuisine renowned in the Kingdoms.

### Buto

This subrace makes up the bulk of the orc population in Dwipantara. They are the more civilized subrace, being able to coexist with other races in cities and villages.

### Genderuwo

The more savage of the two orc subraces, most Genderuwo live in the outskirts of Suryonegoro and Sripura, occassionally attacking settlements to plunder treasure to sell to fellow criminals and/or people to eat. Physically, Genderuwo are more animalistic than their cousins, with hair covering their whole bodies except their faces, hands, and feet, akin to gorillas.
Bricksburg

**Bricksburg** is one of the many realms of The LEGO Movie based off of the Town and City themes.

## ***History***

### **Kragle incident**

Bricksburg is a realm composed entirely out of one massive city inhabited by many with city-related occupations, like barristas, construction workers, business men, and others. During the reign of Lord Business, walls were built around the city blocking it off from the other realms and all of the inhabitants who were caught building against the instructions were "put to sleep".

Cameras placed all over the city watch citizens to make sure that they follow the instructions. Like the other realms, the Master Builders built tunnels in the massive walls surrounding the realm in order to escape President Business's grasp.

It was also the first (and only) realm to be attacked by the Kragle-izer until President Business was redeemed and un-kragled the affected parts of the city.
Khalemkalsi's Staff

> "*Blessed with the ability to channel and concentrate the user's spiritual energy to perform elemental magic, Khalemkalsi's Staff is a relic from before the First Era, having been forged by an unnamed maker in honor of their local deity.*"
> ― An outsider's perspective
>
>

**Khalemkalsi's Staff** is a humanoid-scale staff with a sapphire pommel, steel shaft and two curved blades protecting a larger star sapphire orb mounted on electrum points.

## History

### Origins

Khalemkalsi's Staff was forged and encrusted by an unnamed tribal smith centuries before the Shadow's arrival in the First Era. Presented to the elemental priestess Khalemkalsi, the Staff embodied the tribe's mineral wealth and served as a status symbol to those outside the tribe's lands as well as those within. Khalemkalsi's Staff saw combat against the tribe's enemies, where it had served its wielder with distinction. In time, the lands surrounding the Frostfang Mountains served under the banner of the Staff, and a two-century peace prevailed over the warring tribes.

### The Shadow & Loss of The Staff

By the dawn of the First Era, the tribe of the Pale had weakened from stagnation. Thus, when the Demons arrived from the Shrieking Sea, the tribe's defenses were torn asunder as the Demons ravaged every town, hamlet, and village. Amidst the terror driven by the Shadow's invasion, the Staff was stolen from the tribal confederacy's lodge in the Pale, though it is unknown whether it was a mortal thief or Demonic fire team that took it. As the remaining tribals were either exterminated or rounded up into labor camps, knowledge of the Staff vanished, and its whereabouts remain unknown to this day.

## Abilities

Khalemkalsi's Staff provides an extension of the wielder's innate magical energy, offering otherwise inept practitioners some limited control of fire, water, and wood magic. The Staff is not believed to enhance the magical performance of skilled mages, however.

The Staff's blades confer additional combat ability at the risk of shattering the Star Sapphire in the fury of combat. Khalemkalsi's Staff will cease to provide support if the Star Sapphire cracks open or is otherwise irreparably damaged. It is unknown whether it is possible to repair or replace the Star Sapphire should it encounter its end.
Cities of Wisdom

> "*The Cats of Elysia are a peculiar folk. Known for raiding their neighbours for slaves, excelling in trade, and their unorthodox sexual appetites, the Cities of Wisdom are considered dens of beauty and filth in equal measure.*"
> ― Meridia official website
>
>

## Societal Information

### State Religion

Mova'Jaal (unofficial)

The **Cities of Wisdom** is a civilization in Elysia.

## Culture

### Gender roles

In Ge'en and Dedi, men are not allowed to own property and women are not allowed to own or captain ships. This leads to men doing sea-based jobs, including fishing, whaling, trading and piracy.
Goblin

**Goblins** are small, social creatures in the Meridia universe.

## Dwipantara

Dwipantaran goblins have a coat of fur covering their whole bodies, with the exception of their faces, hands, and feet, usually either white or grey, and a prehensile tail, which they can easily multitask with when their hands are full. Their feet are shaped like their hands, allowing them to climb trees and buildings alike with little effort. Their simian characteristics make them stand out more than other, more humanoid residents of the nation, though pointing this out to one is considered racist.

Goblin subculture is dynamic and vibrant, with more festivals, rituals, and songs compared to the other races in the Kingdoms, thanks to their impulsive, expressive, and agile nature. This makes goblins among the most talented races when it comes to paintings and visual arts.

Unlike most Dwipantaran natives, many goblins do not follow the Angel's Religion. Instead, they have their own faith which is centred around worshipping a deity known as The Violet God.

South Shriekwind Island

**South Shriekwind Island** is an unoccupied island in Breaca owned by The Shriekwind Exiles. Once a focal point of Demonic energy during the Shadow era, traces of the Shadow remnants haunt the small island's taiga forests, waiting for ignorant or unfortunate explorers to devour for their next meal.

Occasional Marhuman visits to the island's coast yield some fish and animal skins from the creatures that wander away from the haunted forest. However, wandering storms from the Baleful Bay prevent meaningful exploitation of the island's resources, some of the island's geography remains unknown despite charting attempts by the Exiles, and initial prospecting by early Marhuman explorers suggest little in the way of exploitable ores. Consequently, South Shriekwind Island's economy is negligible and instead provides temporary refuge as a last resort for Marhuman fishing parties when the Bay becomes too violent to directly return to North Shriekwind Island.

Frequent visits to South Shriekwind Island are made by the Seacave militia to inspect the coastline from afar and monitor suspicious developments.

## History

### First Era - The Shadow

Little is known of life on South Shriekwind Island before the Shadow's appearance. In all likelihood, the Demons found no sapients to exploit and maintained a tiny garrison only to capture fugitives that tried to use the Shriekwind Islands as shelter. The Demons built a thin, colossal lighthouse on the southern coast which contained an iridescent red-orange gemstone known simply as the Baleful Beacon to control the Baleful Bay's violent weather. No traces of the lighthouse remain, however, and knowledge on the Beacon and its whereabouts have vanished from living memory.

### First Era - Post Shadow

For the first hundred years after the Shadow's disappearance, South Shriekwind Island saw no visitors.

In 1E 1081, an especially severe storm made partial landfall on South Shriekwind Island, dumping many centimeters of rain and demolishing much of the forest growth. Five years later, in 1E 1086, another storm of significantly less severity but greater spread managed to drift free from the Baleful Bay and traveled northeast, enveloping both Shriekwind Islands and West Freja in torrential rains that lasted for three weeks. It remains unknown whether both storms were part of the Baleful Bay's notorious expansion-contraction weather cycle, or if mystical forces were at play.

Waterdeer

The **waterdeer** is a semi-aquatic social animal in Meridia.

## Description

The waterdeer is a large, plesiosaur-like reptile with a four flippers and a long neck, a tough shell on its back, and a pair of antlers on its head. It has ears, eyes, and nostrills on the top of its head, allowing it to see, hear, and smell its surroundings while the rest of its body remains submerged. Its mouth is beaked and toothless, similar to a turtle's.

The coastal waterdeer has bright colours, ranging from blue to green to purple and yellow. Some individuals feature thin white or yellow stripes. Its antlers look like corals.

The fresh waterdeer has darker colours, mainly dark green and brown, to better suit its surroundings. Its body is also smaller than its saltwater cousin, and its antlers look more like tree branches.

## Behaviour

The coastal waterdeer is a migratory social animal, travelling along the coastline with pods of 6-20 individuals, only to return to the nesting grounds to lay eggs. Though it spends a lot of time in the water, they have been seen sleeping, sunbathing, and even feeding on beaches. It is a herbivore and enjoys a wide variety of plants, both on land and in water. Their long necks help them reach seaweed and other aquatic foliage on the seafloor and leaves on tree tops. It communicates with other members of its species by high-pitched sounds, just like whales.

It is a calm and peaceful animal, not batting an eye on any human or other sentient race who come near it if unprovoked. Some indivuals have even been reported to tolerate being touched gently.

The fresh waterdeer is more solitary. If it does live in a group, the group usually does not exceed 8 individuals. It is also more shy and would mostly flee and/or hide upon seeing a human. It is unknown whether it communicates in the same ways as its coastal relatives.

## Habitat

As its name suggests, coastal waterdeer live in coasts, namely the tropical ones of Aleria. Fresh waterdeer live around Aleria's lakes and rivers.
