Description

Hunters of the deepest trenches, Cniama are vile, massive prowlers of the abyss. Wingless and lacking fins, this species uses its broad tail to propel its serpentine body through dark oceans. Surprisingly, despite being fully aquatic dragons, Cniama do not have gills and must resurface for air. They are able to dive up to 11,000ft on a single breath, in which can sustain them for two hours. When hunting, Cniama do so in small pods, often targeting whales and giant squid. Their eyes are the largest in the world, and are sensitive to the smallest flicker of light & movement. With phosphorescent scales, they flicker to attract prey. And only when their eyes lock on an object, will they strike...

Length: 552ft
Body Type: marine, wyrm
Weight: 560 tons
Diet: giant squid, sperm whales,blue whales
Habitat: trenches, sea floor

Drawn with white charcoal, color pencils on black card stock and incredible patience...
