The Aiido is an other very old creature of mine. You can see one of the older images of one here http://zenmekir.deviantart.com/art/Aiido-sketch-93200717 but I have some even older images where they are labeled 'Aiddo' I spelled it so many different ways it's hard to find their images.

"This is an Aiido; a very important creature in Laynair. They are used as mounts and are expert navigators.

Laynair has a different way of perceiving intelligence in other creatures; since Laynair is full of sapient beings, some areas go by S.I or “social intelligence”. The ability to speak in a language grants a race many points in S.I. It may seem cruel for some creatures to get the shaft depending on their abilities to communicate with the major ruling races but these rules were put in place quite a long time ago; only some places still use the system. It continues to be the topic of heated debates among city leaders.

Most cities treat beings with lower S.I very fairly; the Aiido is one of those creatures. "

But anyway!

Here's an updated one! They are commonly used as mounts in Laynair.
