Cliff Racer

Cliff Racers are large, flying creatures appearing in the Elder Scrolls series. Whilst cliff racers were found throughout the island of Vvardenfell in the province of Morrowind, they are an invasive species, migrating to Vvardenfell from parts unknown and eventually driving the native dragon population from their home there, Red Mountain. Cliff racers are agressive and incredibly perceptive, and will generally stalk travellers for a while, sometimes gaining numbers, only being detected by the unwary victim when they finally strike. Due to their ability to fly, cliff racers were able to avoid the Ghostfence that surrounded Red Mountain, allowing them to spread the blight beyond Red Mountain's borders. Cliff racers were eventually driven from Vvardenfell by Saint Jiub the Eradicator, though they would still be found on mainland Morrowind beyond the Fourth Era.
