Giant Bat (Online)

For other uses, see Giant Bat.

"Darker than a Dunmer, with wings spread out to the width of three Imperial corpses laid end to end, this giant bat was coaxed from its slumber in the thick tree canopies above by the rising moons. Black flesh pulled tight over bat skull, a row of fanged teeth and a nose the shape of an oak leaf, ribs protruding through torso skin, and thick fur along the back ridge. A skeever-like tail, hooked toes, and claw hands with thumbs attached to roughly spread wings."

―Grundvik Cold-Fist^[src]

Giant Bats are crepuscular, chiropteran creatures that appear in The Elder Scrolls Online. They can be found in the Rivenspire region of High Rock, Auridon in the Summerset Isles, and the Grahtwood and Greenshade regions of Valenwood.

Some people, such as Ilyes, make a living selling Giant Bat and Wolf pelts.^[1]
