The Armored Ray is a defensive species found exclusively on the planet of Laveria.

Anatomy[]

It is robust in structure, but in spite of the seemingly dense body, studies of its interior reveal a very hollow, and light internal structure, allowing the creature to remain afloat for short periods. The sides of its body are lined with a singular wing-like fin, with a fish-like tail.

The frontal head of the Armored Ray is the only hardened part of the body, the head extending into three points resembling a crest. Two of these extensions end in a blackened point - the only hardened parts of the animal's body.

Behavior[]

Armored Rays are solitary and docile in nature. Due to their added weight, they are fairly slow-moving, and while capable of floating in the air, spends most of its time within the water. They feed on bottom-growing plant matter within shallow bays and seas, swimming along the bottom sea floor.
