rdfs:comment
Shantak-Vögel sind drachenartige Wesen, die im Traumland aus den Werken von H.P. Lovecraft leben. Sie sehen aus wie riesige Wyvern, größer als Elefanten, mit dem Kopf eines Pferdes. Ihre geschuppte Haut ist glatt und schleimig, außerdem besitzen sie eine Mähne. Sie dienen den satyrartigen Bewohnern von Leng als Reittiere. Randolf Carter bezeichnete sie mehrmals als "hippocephalische Vögel". Die Shantaks dienen Nyarlathotep, dem kriechenden Chaos, der die Seele und der Bote der Äußeren Götter ist. The Shantak were invented by H.P. Lovecraft for his Dreamlands, where they dwelt in the vicinity of Leng. They are usually described as being similar to dragons with horse-like heads. However, the description of a Shantak by August Derleth in The Gable Window is very similar to that of a Byakhee, suggesting that the two could be the same species (if one disregards the other description); they are described as bat-like with a height equal to or greater than a man, furry with beaked/vulture-like heads. It is possible that, like the relationship suggested for the Tcho-Tchos and Men of Leng, the two forms represent waking world and dream world forms of the same being. The Shantak is an enemy from Final Fantasy X-2. It is a strong enemy at the start of the game but is relatively easy late in the game. It is much more difficult when in Oversoul due to the Chicken Wing attacks, but is still possible to defeat with ease. Use the strongest attacks the party has at the time to take it down. Shantaks are gargantuan aerial organisms which reside in the Cold Waste of Earth's Dreamlands. They are larger than elephants and have a head reminiscent of that of a horse. They are scaly with slimy skin and are carried through the air by bat-like wings. Their feet form two strong talons. Shantaks are occasionally summoned to serve as steeds. They are hunted by the Elder God Nodens and greatly fear Nightgaunts. Gli shantak erano enormi e potenti volatili dal piumaggio giallo e rosso, che si aggiravano per Spira. Capaci di sollevare anche prede di grandi dimensioni, potevano causare violente onde d'urto con il semplice battito delle enormi ali. Potenziati dai lunioli, ottenevano una maggior potenza nelle ali, e diventavano in grado di potenziarsi progressivamente. Acquisivano inoltre la capacità di spazzare via le pozioni dalle tasche dei nemici. This is a powerful Bird Family monster. Formula: Whipbird x Greatdrak/Jamirus

The Shantak is an enemy from Final Fantasy X-2. It is a strong enemy at the start of the game but is relatively easy late in the game. It is much more difficult when in Oversoul due to the Chicken Wing attacks, but is still possible to defeat with ease. Use the strongest attacks the party has at the time to take it down. This is a powerful Bird Family monster. Formula: Whipbird x Greatdrak/Jamirus Gli shantak erano enormi e potenti volatili dal piumaggio giallo e rosso, che si aggiravano per Spira. Capaci di sollevare anche prede di grandi dimensioni, potevano causare violente onde d'urto con il semplice battito delle enormi ali. Potenziati dai lunioli, ottenevano una maggior potenza nelle ali, e diventavano in grado di potenziarsi progressivamente.

It is possible that, like the relationship suggested for the Tcho-Tchos and Men of Leng, the two forms represent waking world and dream world forms of the same being. Shantak-Vögel sind drachenartige Wesen, die im Traumland aus den Werken von H.P. Lovecraft leben. Sie sehen aus wie riesige Wyvern, größer als Elefanten, mit dem Kopf eines Pferdes. Ihre geschuppte Haut ist glatt und schleimig, außerdem besitzen sie eine Mähne. Sie dienen den satyrartigen Bewohnern von Leng als Reittiere. Randolf Carter bezeichnete sie mehrmals als "hippocephalische Vögel". Shantak-Vögel brüten auf den gemeisselten Bergen jenseits der Hochebene von Leng, von wo ihre großen, wohlschmeckenden Eier mit Yak-Karawanen zur Stadt Inquanok transportiert werden, wo sie verkauft werden. Im Palast des Königs von Inquanok haust auch der Vater der Shantaks, der allen Neugierigen, die seinem Turm zu nahe kommen, Albträume schickt. Der Vater wird nur im Dunkeln gefüttert, da kein Außenstehender einen Shantak-Vogel sehen darf. Die Shantaks dienen Nyarlathotep, dem kriechenden Chaos, der die Seele und der Bote der Äußeren Götter ist. Shantak fürchten die Dunkeldürren (Nightgaunts), da diese dem uralten und archaischen Nodens dienen, dem Herren des Abgrundes, der die Diener der Äußeren Götter jagt, zu denen Nyarlathotep gehört. Unter allen Wesen in H. P. Lovecrafts Cthulhu-Mythos sind sie diejenigen, die am meisten an Drachen erinnern. Ob ein Zusammenhang mit den wyvernköpfigen Vögeln aus der Erzählung The Hoard Of the Wizard-Beast besteht ist unbekannt. Kategorie:Wyvern Kategorie:Drachen in Filmen und Büchern Kategorie:Cthulhu-Mythos Kategorie:Vogelartige Drachen Shantaks are gargantuan aerial organisms which reside in the Cold Waste of Earth's Dreamlands. They are larger than elephants and have a head reminiscent of that of a horse. They are scaly with slimy skin and are carried through the air by bat-like wings. Their feet form two strong talons. Shantaks are occasionally summoned to serve as steeds. They are hunted by the Elder God Nodens and greatly fear Nightgaunts.
