YANMA relies on its agility to avoid predators in the air. The quickness with which it can change directions and speeds baffles even experienced hunters like EGLAIR.

Not a fan of the Eaglair reference, and it seems a bit lacking, content-wise. (It is fast to escape predators. Here is a fastness qualifier.)

I looked at the canon entries for inspiration, and the two main ideas associated with Yanma is that it can see 360 degrees and that it can break windows with wing-shock-waves. Here's an attempt to expand on the first:

Instead of relaying information to the brain through nerves, YANMA's eyes float in a special semiconducting fluid. This allows them to rotate freely in their sockets, granting 360 degree vision.

YANMA flies at extremely high speeds to avoid capture. Its eyes float in a special semiconducting fluid allowing 360 degree vision to avoid obstacles and predators alike.

I prefer IB's entry. I vote in accordance with that preference.

I also prefer IBs. But I'll wait for two more votes or affirmations.

Perhpas not. I'm itching to get some of these closed.
