Gargal

Gargals - (representatives of the predatory fauna). About these creatures, the Kendarii know only from the stories and scientific observations of the Novologists, or from the true stories of daredevils who managed to survive. Gargals inhabit the remote and poorly studied boundaries of Kendaris, namely, in a certain area, Shangarga. It is a swampy, rocky area where a new resource, Kamiros, has been discovered. For the novelty, which can obviously be sold at exorbitant prices in Poltors, at first a lot of adventurers rushed, but. Only a few were able to return. Either with empty hands, or with one crystal found. And these survivors told horrible stories about the creatures that attacked at night. So it is, gargals are nocturnal predators, and in general their lifestyle is exclusively nocturnal. During the day, they try to hide from the sunlight, which burns their skin, and the monster can burn out if it does not have time to hide. Hiding at the bottom of swamps or in rocky crevices, they sleep during the day. And they wake up at night. Gargals are very active during the moon's release. Sly and dodgy hunters. All different types of gargals have several things in common. This is the presence of three eyes in a horizontal arrangement (this aspect does not apply to deep gargal, they have no eyes at all), a sting with a paralyzing poison in the tail, a second jaw (for feeding), the presence of small paws on the chest (in some species) and six holes for breathing. Some gargals can fly, or just hover, and some have no wings. These creatures were attributed to a rather specific species. Bloodsuckers are heartbreakers. But even here, their taste priorities are different. They are called heartthrobs for a reason, because after their "kiss of death", you will lose not only your heart muscle but also blood. Since their tongue is a sucker, after it reaches the area where the heart beats through your mouth and the esophagus, it gnaws a path towards it, and then it swallows and sucks on the veins and arteries, from which it actually drinks all the victim's blood. Some Novologists have put forward the theory that gargals sense the rush of adrenaline, in particular, they perfectly "see" those who are struck by fear. After all, most of the survivors from these unfortunate swamps fled from there either under the "degree" or being stoned. Gargals do not leave Shangarga because of the aura of their father-gargals, which is hidden under these terrible swamps, and he, in turn, does not leave this swamp, because of another mysterious reason, which the inhabitants of Kendaris will not reveal soon.
Gargals are sexless, incapable of reproducing offspring, they are born only thanks to their father, who vomits a new child when he feels that one of his children has died. Gargal can see well in the dark, and relies more on smell than sight. Ambient sounds are poorly heard, but the “voices” of fellows are well heard. Gargals do not like to immediately kill their prey, they prefer to "play" with it in catch-up, in order to catch up with more fear, from which the taste of the heart will be a hundred times more delicious for them. Growth of these creatures are from 2.5 meters to 3x.
