A blind, bird-like creature native to the skies of Ursimga which spends its entire life in the air. Its legs have so atrophied that they are now incapable of supporting the creature's weight. The Habacuu navigates by sonar. It has the psionic ability to teleport over short distances when confronted with danger. Its elongated skull functions as a rudder.
Habacuu bear live young which spend the first six months of life clinging to the feathers of the mother's underbelly, eating regurgitated insects from the Habacuu's secondary mouth.
Renowned as natural thieves, they appear to target small objects with a strong residual psychic aura; generally they prefer antique jewellery.
