Bestiary 4 | Monsters | Elder Thing | Special Abilities | Limited Starflight
An
elder thing can survive in the void of outer space, and its
wings allow it to use its fly speed in that environment despite the lack of air. Unlike creatures with full
starflight, an
elder thing's ability to fly in outer space does not allow it to
reach unusually high speeds—an
elder thing that wishes to
travel from one planet to another typically calculates the distance and then hibernates for the majority of the journey, relying on its momentum and inertia to carry it to its destination while it slumbers along the way.
