Highland Falaqalku

Volianten is the word from Ascunsian: Volliante, via Latin volatus, means flight, it is used in post-2600s from now. Falaqalku is the Anglicization word from Quechua: phalaq "to fly" and allqu "dog" or Mapundungun: kalku "evil sorcerer", which both words for "flying dog" or "flying wicked warlock", it is used in pre-2600s and introduced to the 1990s.

• Singular: Volianten, Falaqalku

• Plural: Volianteni, Falaqalkus

The Highland Falaqalku is similar to the Common Falaqalku in that it has bat-like wings with five fingers in a row, but it has grayish yellow fur with dark stripes and pale yellowish white on wing membranes that distinguish it from the fur, as well as green eye patches. The Highland Falaqalku had a brush-shaped tail that served as a counterweight, allowing for tight maneuvering on both ground and air.

The Highland Falaqalku is an aerial acrobat, capable of gliding and turning with ease. It can glide for hours on thermals with minimum wingbeats. The Highland Falaqalku's forward-facing eyes provided binocular vision, suitable for depth perception while hunting, and it had great hearing and smell, which aided in stalking prey. This species possessed a unique air sac that inflates once it has gulped in sufficient air. This synapsid may breathe wind at adversaries and utilize its inhaling abilities to bring hunters closer or make them stagger. For larger persons, the Highland Falaqalku can lift more weight than others, grasp tiny to medium-sized creatures, and occasionally fling them at enemies or you. They are also strong enough to pick up enemies and toss them straight off the cliffs around the area for an instant kill. During the quest, the quest immediately ends in failure.

The Highland Falaqalku was designed for fast chase and flight turns, and it could reach speeds of up to 20 mph in flight and 12 mph on land. Their long tail operated as a counterweight, allowing for precise navigation. The Highland Falaqalku can lift heavier loads than others, snatches tiny to medium-sized creatures, and occasionally tosses them at enemies or you. The Falaqalku's fur offered insulation and helped with balance, display, and camouflage in both woodland and sky.

The Highland Falaqalku is an omnivore who aggressively hunts both animals and berries. This synapsid occasionally consumes tiny birds, bats, rodents, small reptiles or amphibians, and bugs, as well as carrion, which helps to decrease disease spread. It also forages fruit such as apples, yews, blueberries, and others when visiting the mountains in search of nutrition, and it drops excrement containing seeds that initiate the growth of new plants. The Highland Falaqalku hunts prey from branches or on land, usually at day and morning.

The winged synapsid helps to manage the populations of tiny vertebrates. It serves as a mountain predator in altitude environments. The synapsid shares habitats and competes with other birds such as buzzards, hawks, vultures, eagles, and bats. The Highland Falaqalku's natural predators include larger eagles, lions, and many organisms that prey on this species because it frequently follows ploughs or roads in search of prey or roadkill, and it may steal food from other birds or human leftovers.

The Highland Falaqalku is commonly encountered in pairs or loose groups, particularly in winter or near feeding places. During the breeding season, territorial pairs establish and actively defend nesting territories. Outside of breeding season, it can roost in large groups of dozens or even hundreds.

The Highland Falaqalku roosts in hollow trees, caves, or abandoned buildings, often high above ground for all sizes. It likes dense canopy cover or a larger cave for safety, and it is very selective, sometimes using the same roost for years. Synapsids communicate socially using a range of chirps, squeaks, grunting, and hisses, and they may also employ scent marking to identify mates or territory.

The Highland Falaqalku is diurnal (active during the day), and it spends the mornings soaring for food, frequently employing rising air currents. The winged synapsid is solitary, group, or family-oriented, but not aggressive toward humans. They are rarely seen since they avoid open spaces and human places.

The Highland Falaqalku lives in the highlands and cloud forests of any biome in all regions of Sawintir, and it is uncommon during migration. The Highland Falaqalku dwells in the mountains, although it migrates to all biomes for food. It has also adapted to human settings, which provide good nesting sites and food supplies.

The Highland Falaqalku was an introduced species on Mount Descartes in Reinachos, an exoplanet in Cygnus.

The synapsids emerge from evolution and unique wildlife conservation except for the dinosaur species: Deinonychus. The voliantens are flying bat-like synapsids. Also looked up there are just studied by scientists in conversation and protected by Royal family members.

• This is the case when only a few creatures can one-hit and fail, and the quest will immediately end during a fight or confrontation. The others are Old Radachalog, Apep, Jormungandr, Narwa the Allmother, Safi'jiiva, and Ifrit.
