Magistreams LARGEST Creature

[MothballMilkshake]

What would you say is the largest creature (In comparison to a human) on Magistream?

I've not been (back) here that long, but I should think it would be one of the Leviathan species, not only because their name carries the "enormous" connotation, but also because they are aquatic, which means their skeleton does not have to support their weight and is why whales can be so large compared to terrestrial mammals.

Just based on the descriptions alone, I'd say either the Lakireldar and Fjallaugar or the Jormungandr. The Fjallaugar specifically states that some sleeping ones have been mistaken for mountains. In a similar vein, Jormungandr are described as a species which grows endlessly.

That's just off the top of my head, though.

So Krakens are described as "growing to two tons or more in weight" in their descriptions, and I'm pretty sure we're supposed to read that as them being pretty huge, but on the other hand they also allegedly can fit into Lake Lakira without any issues. So unless Lake Lakira is like, bigger on the inside (which, given how it seems capable of holding every aquatic creature known to magi, it might well be), I guess they're probably not the largest creature.

A lot of descriptions of dragons on this site say that they never stop growing, and imply that they can live for very long, which means that probably the oldest dragons are unfathomably huge.

Fun fact - when I was writing the descriptions for the Laikas, I thought the clouds around their feet made them look like they should be as large as mountains. Mysfytt had no objections and in fact expanded on that idea in her outline for their lore, and so that's how we ended up with doggos similar to the dragons mentioned above - they never stop growing, and live for long enough that there *should* be extremely huge ones out there. But no one, at least in living memory, has actually found ones that large and recorded their experience.

Caught out, hahah! I struggle to remember all the Magistream creatures sometimes (There's more than Pokemon I swear!) and was thinking of continuations for my tale!

Haha, well, I'm excited to see what creature you decide on if you decide to continue it!

Also, we're approaching 1500 creatures on the site at this point, so we've definitely surpassed pokemon at this point! (Shh, don't point out that a bunch of them are the same creature recolored.)
