'''Larkin''' are highly valued small flying crustacean animals native to [[Aimia]] on [[Roshar]]. They have been a critically endangered species since the [[scouring of Aimia]].{{qa ref|977|13|Are the creatures on the frontsheet's crabwasps or crabdragons?| - Cosmere Q&A - 17th Shard|date=2012-09}}
== Appearance and Anatomy ==
The size of a larkin ranges between the size of a hand and a small melon.{{qa ref|977|13|Are the creatures on the frontsheet's crabwasps or crabdragons?| - Cosmere Q&A - 17th Shard|date=2012-09}} They are somewhat similar to [[cremling]]s in appearance, although, unlike the cremlings' crabbish face, the larkin have a small face, like that of an [[axehound]], with a snout, mouth, and shimmering eyes of solid silver, as well as wings that folded out of their backs. Their wings are strong enough that they can fly, at least in small distances.{{book ref|sa2|i|3}}{{book ref|sa2|i|9}}
The most outstanding feature of a larkin is its ability to suck [[Stormlight]] out of a [[Surgebinder]] at will. The Stormlight can be seen streaming from the Surgebinder towards the larkin's mouth as it is drinking in the Stormlight.{{book
