Kyroptero is a Litho-Titan that blends perfectly with the stone stalactites hanging from the ceilings of caves. Sometimes this Titan hides so well that he doesn't move for hours at a time.
History[]
Kyroptero is known to usually guard caves, easily blending in with the rock stalactites. SAS-011
Kyroptero has been used on the side of good. SAS-011
Abilities[]
Kyroptero has the abilities of a bat, however its strategy is to disguise itself as a stalactite hanging from the ceilings of caves before he attacks enemy Seekers or Titans.
Design History[]
Rough Sketch[]
Oftentimes in caves, water drips from the ceiling for thousands of years, depositing tiny amounts of minerals. Over time, these minerals build up to create downward-pointing spikes called stalactites. The idea behind Kryoptero is that he’s a batlike spirit that can disguise himself to look like a stalactite, so enemy Seekers don’t notice him until it’s too late! In this sketch, he doesn’t look too much like a stalactite, so we asked the artist to make him taller and spikier. That way, when he hangs from the ceiling with his wings folded around him, he blends in.
Pencil Sketch[]
Much better! Now it looks like someone spotted him, and he’s opened up one wing so he can jump down and start a combat. We asked the artists to make him look aggressive, like he’s about to attack — it wouldn’t do for this spooky Titan to get caught taking a nap!

There’s our guy! Look at those claws! And the glowing eyes! Definitely not the sort of thing you’d want to stumble upon in a dark place! Huntik.com
