Description
Aquatic mount design for the RPG group TerrApocalypse .

This is some kind of pterosaur, ichthyosaur, pelican, seal mash-up, I suppose.

Meet the sail-fin. Large, docile, fish-eating predators, sail-fins are slow-moving most of them time, but can put on impressive bursts of speed when catching their meals of fish. They have expandable throat sacs for snaring large meals, which they can flush with blood to use to signal of sail-fins with. Their erectable crest is also used for signaling, especially during mating season. Their placed nature makes them unafraid of humans. They can been ridden across the water's surface, or used as fishing companions. While fishing with a sail-fin, a ring must be placed around their necks to prevent them from swallowing the larger catchers the angler wishes to keep.

Contest: Create a Mount! $45 in prizes (extended)
EDIT - Extended the deadline by two weeks, since many people asked for more time!
The idea of this contest is to create a mount design for my world, TerrApocalypse! So far I have only two types of mounts; horses and Ginks (GinkCentral), ostrich-like mounts. I am looking for something special next to that ;D
See it as a mount fit for an MMORPG, like WoW or Tera Online! The theme of my world is post apocalyptic Steampunk/Fantasy.
Please note, these mounts are NOT going to be in any game (sadly). It's for an RPG group I have here on DA, and it's meant to give the world more flavour <3
Rules
You can create a mount of an existing animal, a mix of animals, something completely new, even a vehicle (but only if it's steampunk themed ;D). Heck, it can even be an animal with steampunk parts, or a vehicle shaped like an animal.
The winning mount designs will appear in the story and in the RPG system as useable mounts. I
