Legend

native to Wyndigal 2, this unusual avian stood well over two meters tall. Much of their height was due to their long, double-jointed legs. They had vestigial wings which resembled tiny hands, and long, flexible necks. Their was brightly colored, served to help protect the croator from the ultra-violet sunlight which bombarded the planet. A tuft of feathers protected their heads, while a thick cape of feathers protected their bodies. They lacked a true beak, instead having a long, dangling proboscis which they used to vacuum up their food. They reproduced asexually, laying their eggs and then moving on. Travelers to Wyndigal 2 discovered that the skin of the croator could be fashioned into a poncho or coat, providing a great deal of protection from the sun's light.
