Description

So I haven't uploaded anything lately do to school having started I have been working on a couple of drawings. This one is the one I have managed to finish.
Chrysaoris' forests are numerous and trees there grow to enormous sizes due to a weaker gravity and slightly thicker atmosphere, however humans can breathe on Chrysaoris without breathing apparatuses. In the canopys of these various pagoda trees and xenobamboos exist species that are unique to the canopy.
Bicolored Trologs, relatives of the much larger Cliff Trologs, are one of the more numerous animals living high in the trees. they are brilliantly colored and very noisy. males have a large sail like fin on their back and can change the color of it depending on whether its mating season or trying to defend its territory, its territory being a large branch of a tree.
Green basilik raptors are the top predators of the canopy. when standing and seen from a distance they eerily resemble human forms. They usually stand about 5 ft tall and have a patagia that stretches from their wrist to their hips. Though know one has actually seen them use this to glide it has been speculated that it is used to slow a descent from a tree if it falls by accident. they have lightweight bones and strong muscles that allows them to climb branch to branch. mostly ambush hunters they are heavily camouflaged. No two Basilisk raptors have the same stripe pattern that runs along their back.
