Leviathans are massive underwater monsters that inhabit the Unending Ocean and Sea of Sorrows. They are worshipped by naga as deities, and as such the leviathans do not eat them.[1]

No living leviathans are currently thought to exist in the northern continent; however, their skeletons litter the coasts of Orr and elsewhere, including the Crystal Desert. At some point, the Durmand Priory has obtained a leviathan skeleton, with their scholars currently studying it. A fisherman from the village of Auld Red Wharf claimed to have once caught one in Viathan Lake, giving the lake its name, but it is not known if this actually happened.[2][3]

In 1219 AE, a prominent leviathan nicknamed "the Maw" was turned into a Risen servant of Zhaitan during the Great Tsunami, and terrorized the Sea of Sorrows for 40 years thereafter, until its (final) death at the hands of Macha. Its corpse can be seen off the shore of Claw Island, along with the wreckage of the Pride.

In the present day, two adolescent leviathans were spotted in the waters of New Kaineng City and off the coasts of Shing Jea Island, driven to leave the Unending Ocean in order to feed. Both individuals were slain by Tyrian visitors along with the largos Fahd al'Eshadhi.

    Fahd al'Eshadhi: Stay vigilant for naga. They may interfere, since they worship leviathans as deities.
    Fahd al'Eshadhi: So, they're one of the few creatures leviathans won't eat. Though I suspect the true reason is because naga taste awful.
