Trivia
- Altaran Sandile is based on a gavial or gharial.
- Its expression in both the art and sprite is a reference to a poem in Alice in Wonderland:
- How doth the little crocodile improve his shining tail
- And pour the waters of the Nile on every golden scale!
- How cheerfully he seems to grin, how neatly spreads his claws
- And welcomes little fishes in with gently smiling jaws!
