Flying snake

Flying snakes were brightly colored, winged serpents found in tropical locations and remote jungles such as Chult.

Usage
These serpents could sometimes be domesticated to serve as messengers that delivered scrolls wrapped in their coils.

History
During the late fifteenth century DR, flying snakes trained as messengers were popular with members of the Zhentarim and were sometimes recognized as symbols of the faction. The merchant prince Ifan Talro'a of Port Nyanzaru sold these creatures to Zhentarim members, and would refuse to sell them to anyone else.
