Sandwhale
The Sandwhale is a large-sized sea creature that is unique to the seas north of Zodaskha. It can be found in the northern seas of the nation, where it hunts for prey in the shallow waters. The Sandwhale is a formidable predator, with a body shape that is designed to move easily through the shifting sand dunes. Its skin is a sandy color and is covered in a thick layer of blubber to protect it from the scorching sun. Its fins are broad and flat, allowing it to swim through the sand as well as the water. Its diet primarily consists of fish and crustaceans that it finds in the shallow waters, it is a valuable species for the desert cuisine in Zodaskha. The meat is considered a delicacy, and the oil from its blubber is used in cooking and as a source of fuel.
Sea hunting for Sandwhales is a dangerous and treacherous endeavor, but one that is greatly rewarded for the people of Zodaskha. These massive creatures are known for their thick hides and fierce tempers. The hunters, known as Sandwhalers, set out in small boats, armed with harpoons and strong nets, in search of these elusive beasts. The hunt is not for the faint of heart, as the Sandwhales are known to capsize boats and drag hunters to their deaths beneath the waves. But the rewards are great, however, as Sandwhales provide a wealth of resources to the people of Zodaskha. The meat is a delicacy, highly sought after by the desert dwellers, and the oil from its blubber is used for lamps and cooking. The bones are used for tools and weapons, and the sinew for cordage and bowstrings. The Sandwhale is truly a valuable asset to the people of Zodaskha.
