Shantak

Shantaks are gargantuan aerial organisms which reside in the Cold Waste of Earth's Dreamlands. They are larger than elephants and have a head reminiscent of that of a horse. They are scaly with slimy skin and are carried through the air by bat-like wings. Their feet form two strong talons.

Shantaks are occasionally summoned to serve as steeds. They are hunted by the Elder God Nodens and greatly fear Nightgaunts.
