Lamp-Eft

Lamp-Efts are a non-sapient species of paranormal creatures from the Dreamlands, which are known for their luminous torch-like eyes and the ability to fly without wings.

Biology
Lamp-Efts are newt-like creatures that measure 2 to 3 ft in length (~ 60 to 91 cm) and use their four paws and flattened tail to move through the air as if they were swimming. They have two large globular eyes which emit beams of light like torches.

Lamp-Efts have no mouth and subsist by feeding on the energy generated by all living creatures. Since they feed on small quantities, they don't usually cause harm, although they might drain small animals to the point of temporary unconsciousness.

Lamp-Efts spend most of their days in the upper atmosphere and move down to the surface at night. They are easily domesticated and can confer protection against photophobic predators.
