The Galleon Lyngbakr split from their ancestors as a response to the evolutionary pressure set up by the Terrorfang Hafgufa. They have begun to move into the warmer southern waters, as a way to avoid the adults of the terrorfang hafgufa. They live primarily in the Tropics, but will mate and rear their young in the more temperate colder waters of the south. They live in matriarchal pods, lead by a mother or grandmother of the members. The pods generally consist of a grand mother, a few daughters, and any young born that season along with their fathers. Male are rather transient, though will generally live with either their familial pods, or will live with their mate and young. The males are slightly smaller than the female, averaging 25 m, but are extremely aggressive and will fiercely protect the pods they are with.
The adults spend most of their lives in the sunlight zones, sifting plankton out of the water. They breed in the southern temperate waters, and the females will have a staggered mating seasons, so that not all females within a pod will have children at the same time, allowing for their aunts to help with raising the young and protection. Once the young reach mating age, roughly their 12th year, they will generally stick with their mothers to help, but once the pods grow to a certain size, the oldest daughters will split off along with her young and form a new pod.
