Notes Anaxial Annex. Moves 2 meters on land. MI pg 276. These are giant turtles, fifteen feet or more in length. Its shell is hard and leathery, similar to that of a leatherback turtle rather than the more typical horny covering of its other relatives. Archelons are peaceful unless attacked, and even then not especially dangerous for their size. They mainly eat clams, although they supplement their diet with squid and other soft-bodied creatures. Like all turtles, archelons lay eggs and must visit dry land to do so, burying the eggs in the sand of a suitable beach before heading back out to sea again. These eggs are considered a delicacy by many of the natives of the East Isles, but the Sofali people of the Tortugax islands and eastern Pamaltela regard the animal as sacred, as direct descendants of the turtle-god Sofals, and will protect its eggs if necessary, although they will certainly eat those of smaller species.
