Aqualla

Aqualla are an aquatic species of Dziraga found in every ocean in Erosea.

About
Aqualla are a very old species, staying almost the same for thousands of years. They're very intelligent aquatic predators, living in almost every large enough body of water in the World. Their diet is exclusively made up of fish, and they ignore everything else - including swimming people. They are now found mostly in southern waters, the north of Erosea being the domain of the much fiercer sub-species the Selturn.

Aqualla are capable of communicating telepathically and can become very fluent in the Common Tongue if exposed to it long enough. They can become skilled in mental magic, projecting their thoughts, feelings and even images into the minds of others. This is often used to confuse their prey to make them easy to eat.

Their large fangs are for show, and the Dziraga with the largest is the most feared among them. The species has adapted to many different aquatic environments, with their colours changed depending on their location. This includes deep sea and coral reef Aqualla.

Appearance
An Aqualla's appearance varies depending on it's location. All Aquallas have strong flippers, a long neck and a star-shaped tail. They also have fangs that never stop growing.

Aquallas have stripes running along their bodies that grow as they age.

Types

 * See also: Selturn

Tropical Aqualla
Tropical Aqualla have very bright scales and live in coral reefs and warmer waters all across Erosea. They are smaller than most other types.

Trench Aqualla
Trench Aqualla are very dark and live in the deepest trenches of the oceans. They rarely come to the surface and so have poor eyesight. They can swim for many miles in a day, and often travel around the whole of Erosea in search of food and mates.

Freshwater Aqualla
Freshwater Aqualla live in shallow water, larger lakes and seas. They rarely venture into the open ocean. They are commonly found in Lake Donathal bumping into traders ships.
