Ecology

Moonkite is a being of the Upper Planes, present in the world only when summoned, sworn, or sent on cosmic business. It is most often found in planar regions. It is large-sized, which shapes how it hunts, hides, or fights.

Behaviour

Moonkite is principled and deliberate, its actions tied to a cause it believes in. Its Lawful Good alignment shapes how it engages with the world — predictable in tendency, even when unpredictable in detail. It is intelligent enough to plan, scheme, or remember.

Origin

Moonkite is introduced in Kobold Press's Tome of Beasts 2 (2020). Celestials originate in the Upper Planes, sworn to one of the cosmic ideals (good, law) that those planes embody. Within a campaign, its existence anchors a region with the kind of weight only an old, named species carries.
