Cephalos
Wyverns found only in the desert. They resemble a Plesioth, but live and "swim" in sand rather than water. They seldom appear above land, but when their hearing is disturbed...
A Piscine Wyvern that lives in dry, sandy areas such as the Desert and the Old Desert. It swims fast underground, and when its keen hearing picks up an enemy above, it attacks with body slams and sand breath. It is very sensitive to sound: the blast of a Sonic Bomb or the Hunting Horn's “Supersonic Waves,” played with “Yellow Yellow Yellow,” will startle a Cephalos out of the ground. That is the moment to attack.
