Chiang lungs are omnivores. Their diet consists of minerals, gems, dish, sheep, or other large mammals. Their lairs are usually frequented by lesser spirits, who act as aides or bodyguards. At birth they can immediately breath both water and air. Despite being wingless, they can fly thanks to magical blue pearls which are embedded in their brains.Combat
Chiang lung will avoid combat when possible, but are savage fighters nonetheless. In melee combat they use their claws, fangs, and tails which inflict severe damage to their opponents. When in human form, a chiang lung is almost always armed with a massive sword.Abilities
