The Bliell is a non-sapient creature native to Titan and used as a mount by Titanians; although it's considered rare, to the point that its use is restricted to a few powerful individuals.

Biology

The Bliell is a large creature with a mouth full of teeth and known for drooling bluish saliva. Like the Titanians, it possesses wings and membranous feet, but unlike them, it is too heavy to fly. Instead, it operates as an amphibian, and is quite agile underwater. Like all life on Titan, its biochemistry is based on nitrogen and ammonia, rather than oxygen and water.
