2019 (?) | Volartem Hirudinae

[Art of a male Volartem]

Category: Behemoth

Kingdom: Animalia

Domain: Eukaryota

Phylum: Annelid

Class: Clitellata

Order: Carnivora

Family: Hirudidae

Genus: Volar

- Volartem was named after the word "volans" meaning flying, and the word "mortem" or "mors" meaning dead or death.

- They are the largest leech in the Hirudidae family and the genus of Volar. They weighing up to 300,000 pounds and reaching up to 200 feet in length. Some can grow up to 400 feet.

- They are paired with 6 wings. A webbed mane. Long muscular, thorny/sharp razor tongue. And a giant venom stinger on the tip of their tail. Despite of their wings, they're actually not fast fliers but the tongue is fast. They smell with their tongues.

- Since they are categorized as a Behemoth specimen, they truly are active hunters. They mainly hunt on smaller prey such as bisons, cows, horses, etc.. Sometimes they would hunt for whales if they want to, or other monsters.

- Unlike modern leeches, Volartem only lay 50 eggs a year. They lay their eggs in cocoons at watery caves, some lay eggs near the sea or any wet environments. They can mate to reproduce, and sometimes self-reproduce/asexually.

- There are only 4 species in the genus of Volar; Volartem, Insusumors, Duocaudatus, and Praefixi Hirudo

Suuuuup

this is a joint account between me, Red (aka @riotingagainstthesystem) and another dork, Rhys (aka @sixofsparrows)!

We're just here to fuck around and have fun posting headcanons and unorganized writing drabbles that, I don't know about Rhys but I certainly write them at 3am whilest in a fever dream.

My pronouns are he/they and Rhys' are they/them

This page will be full of us implementing ourselves into random parts of time in the story our characters are supposedly GN (gender neutral) because we're both androgynous little shits, their self insert is called Rhys and mine is called Roúze

Rhys and Pellinore are supposedly a "thing" in this and then Roúze and Kearns are like— Ride or Die type of relationship (they're also married) and when we get around to it either me or Rhys will post the sorta story they kinda all meet or like have met or something but yuuuhh this is all for now I guess,the next post will probably be a drabble similar to this by Rhys or the starting of the headcanons. we will never know. jk. unless.

anyway that's been all from me rn so imma log off rn cuz I'm tired n it's late, so I'll see ya whenever I post next or on my main.

auf Wiedersehen
