Combat
Hendar hunted while in the air or underwater, as well as attacking a target on land. In the air, they preferred to use their strength and weight to crash into a target, stunning them and inflicting grievous injuries, causing the target to fall out of the sky. A common tactic used against air-breathing targets was to wrap the target in its strong tail and drag them underwater, drowning its prey. Conversely, hendar used the same tactic against aquatic targets, but rising and dragging them into the air until they died from exposure.

Society
Hendar were solitary creatures and loathed the company of other hendar, thus they lacked any sort of societal structure. The only time two hendar tolerated each others presence was during their mating season as well as to parent their young.

Habitat
Hendar were endemic to the Sword Coast, between Amn and Luskan. They could be found living in ruins or within cliff-side caves. They were also known to live within moors and swamps.
