The main difference is that </del>Aquabats are amphibious, and spend a majority of their life in oceans, seas, inlets, and even large freshwater lakes. This lifestyle and habitat difference has bred various physiological traits that are unique to the Aquabat. They have finer features, with fox-like faces and sensitive facial whiskers for seeking prey in murky waters. Their entire body is streamlined for quick swimming, and they have webbed hands and feet, as well as a rudder-like tail. Some even have fins that extend off the tail, which, combined with shoulder or underarm wingspans, aid in underwater movement. Aquabats also have slim air bladders beneath their skin, which help them float, or sink, depending on to what degree they are inflated. They also have the ability to breathe through their skin, an innovation that enables them to venture safely on either land or water. Echolocation is another strength they have developed in order to excel in their aquatic environment. Aquabats have a large range of sounds, mostly clicks, that they use to locate prey. Lastly, their breeding habits differ from Pendragons and other species. <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">The females </del>carry the eggs in a pouch instead of leaving them in a nest, where they could be eaten, or otherwise wash away. Also, in a single-sex environment, Aquabats can change <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">genders</del>, in order to increase breeding output<del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">.

This lifestyle and habitat difference has bred various physiological traits that are unique to the <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">aquabat</del>. They have finer features, with fox-like faces and sensitive facial whiskers for seeking prey in murky waters. Their entire body is streamlined for quick swimming, and they have webbed hands and feet, as well as a rudder-like tail. Some even have fins that extend off the tail, which, combined with shoulder or underarm wingspans, aid in underwater movement. Aquabats also have slim air bladders beneath their skin, which help them float, or sink, depending on to what degree they are inflated. They also have the ability to breathe through their skin, an innovation that enables them to venture safely on either land or water. Echolocation is another strength they have developed in order to excel in their aquatic environment. Aquabats have a large range of sounds, mostly clicks, that they use to locate prey. Lastly, their breeding habits differ from <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">pendragons </del>and other species.

They also have the ability to breathe through their skin, an innovation that enables them to venture safely on either land or water. Echolocation is another strength they have developed in order to excel in their aquatic environment. Aquabats have a large range of sounds, mostly clicks, that they use to locate prey. Lastly, their breeding habits differ from pendragons and other species. The females carry the eggs in a pouch instead of leaving them in a nest, where they could be eaten, or otherwise wash away. Also, in a single-sex environment, aquabats can change genders, in order to increase breeding output. All of these features combined easily illustrate the reason aquabats are their own species, and not a simple pendragon subspecies.</div></td><td class='diff-marker'> </td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #222; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>The traits that separate aquabats from pendragons number many.

pl. Aquabats<br />
<br />
Aquabats are a pendragon subspecies, but they are simultaneously their own species. They share an ancient blood ancestry with pendragons, but their kind has branched off so far over the millennia, it would hardly be fair to call them pendragons. They have developed into their own species, and they have evolved features, such as echolocation, gender-shifting, and amphibious abilities.<br />

==Description==<br />
<br />
Aquabats are a pendragon subspecies, but they are simultaneously their own species. They share an ancient blood ancestry with pendragons, but their kind has branched off so far over the millennia, it would hardly be fair to call them pendragons. They have developed into their own species, and they have evolved features that render them nothing more, and nothing less, than aquabats.<br />
<br />
The traits that separate aquabats from pendragons number many. The main difference is that aquabats are amphibious, and spend a majority of their life in oceans, seas, inlets, and even large freshwater lakes. This lifestyle and habitat difference has bred various physiological traits that are unique to the aquabat. They have finer features, with fox-like faces and sensitive facial whiskers for seeking prey in murky waters. Their entire body is streamlined for quick swimming, and they have webbed hands and feet, as well as a rudder-like tail. Some even have fins that extend off the tail, which, combined with shoulder or underarm wingspans, aid in underwater movement. Aquabats also have slim air bladders beneath their skin, which help them float, or sink, depending on to what degree they are inflated. They have the ability to breathe through their skin, an innovation that enables them to venture safely on either land or water. Echolocation is another strength they have developed in order to excel in their aquatic environment. Aquabats have a large range of sounds, mostly clicks, that they use to locate prey. Lastly, their breeding habits differ from pendragons and other species. The females carry the eggs in a pouch instead of leaving them in a nest, where they could be eaten, or otherwise wash away. Also, in a single-sex environment, aquabats can change genders, in order to increase breeding output. All of these features combined easily illustrate the reason aquabats are their own species, and not a simple pendragon subspecies.<br />
<br />
==Reproduction and Social Life==<br />
<br />
Socially, aquabats are also unique. Almost all of them live in packs, although the degree of civilization from pack to pack varies greatly. Some packs live in cities, like Aurius, but others live in open oceans and seas, hunting like primitive carnivores. Some very bold individuals venture away from the water, and their families, to embark in a life on dry land. This is an uncommon practice however, because aquabat packs are tightly knit. They usually consist of a grandmother, the matriarch, along with her offspring and her offspring's offspring.<br />
<br />
Within the pack, there is a hierarchy. The grandmother, or else the eldest female, is the equivalent of an Alpha female. She often has an immediate subordinate or two, or her Betas. Their gender doesn't matter. Beyond that, she might have such things as Sentinels, Guardians, and Nioti-sitters. Every aquabat has a place in the pack.<br />
<br />
In order to display these position and level of dominance within their pack, aquabats are known to breach. They can breach several feet into the air, even at a dead start. They are very flashy when they do so, whipping tails, spreading wings, and so forth. Some even glide for a bit on their wings, before re-entering the water.<br />
<br />
Besides having positions and ranks within the pack, each member also has a number. Most aquabats don't have a surname; in its place, they have the alphabetical letter of their pack — for example, J for the JPack — as well as the number given to them at birth. This number is assigned by their chronological time of arrival in the pack, but only if they are born into it. Those that have transferred from other packs are stuck with their original letter and number, as well as with an unbreakable connection to their birth pack, though they are almost always embraced by their newer pack. At birth, each aquabat is tattooed with their Ramathian letter and numeral, so that they will be eternally marked, and carry the emblem of their pack's pride. ALL aquabats' pack identification tattoos are inscribed on their RIGHT PALM. In way of example, Cadmium J66's tattoo looks like this:<br />

<br />
Hunting is a major part of pack life. Whether they hunt primitively or use modern means to aid their quest for food, all aquabats are formidable carnivores. They have several hunting techniques. The most common is for a pack to simply give chase, each individual using hands and teeth in order to kill the prey, which is often fish or small aquatic mammals. A more advanced technique, which must be employed with the cooperation of the pack, is to herd the prey, and then stun it by slapping or lashing with the tail. Sometimes while doing this, aquabats also toss the prey around, until it is essentially "played" to death. The most modern aquabat packs use nets and other contemporary tools in order to catch large harvests of prey, and they store their catches for later consumption.<br />
<br />
To prevent inbreeding, aquabats seek mates outside of the pack. Young aquabats sometimes leave their birth pack to join a mate in theirs, but the more common scenario is for two young aquabats to meet, mate, and then move on, with the female and her pack raising the young. Some aquabats are more monogamous, and more likely to switch packs, while others are quite polygamous, and against commitment to a mate and his or her pack. It seems that the more civilized an aquabat pack is, the more likely they are to be monogamous.<br />
<br />
==Habitat==<br />
<br />
Oceans, seas, inlets, and large freshwater lakes.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
They share an ancient bloodline with pendragons, but have branched off far enough over the millennia to be considered a separate, evolved species. <br />
