Description
(From Planescape: Monstrous Compendium Appdendix III - 1998):
The klyndesi are the only known predators on the plane of Steam. They feed mainly upon creatures called fabere, the docile, gas-filled balloonlike beasts that feed upon the steam itself. ’Course, when the klyndesi find different prey — like visitors to the plane — they’re likely to jump at the chance to consume a more exotic meal.
