The '''Stormwal''' (called '<nowiki/>'''Space Whale'''' by the designers) is a flying creature which lives in the atmosphere of [[StarCitizen:Crusader]]. The animal currently only exists in concept. Its implementation was confirmed on 2020-04-06 by writer [[StarCitizen:Dave Haddock]].<ref name=":0">[https://youtu.be/DQXK7UELjsw YouTube: Star Citizen: Calling All Devs - Bugs, Boids and Beasts] (2020-04-24), acc. 2020-05-01</ref><br />
<br />
According to the [[StarCitizen::Category:Concept art images|concept art]], the carcass of a space whale is circa 100 metres long. They are hunted because their body produces a highly valuable resource.<ref name=":0" /><br />
<br />
Stormwals may be an endangered species, as indicated by posters seen at [[StarCitizen:Security Post Kareah]], which claim "Crusader is dedicated to the conservation of the Stormwals and their natural habitat".<ref>{{Cite game|build=[[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.24.2|Alpha 3.24.2]]|text=In-game survey at Security Post Kareah|accessdate=2024-10-23}}</ref><br />

==In Popular Culture==<br />
There currently sits a large [[StarCitizen:Until Again|sculpture of a stormwal]] on [[StarCitizen:Orison]]'s [[StarCitizen:Cloudview Center]] platform made by [[StarCitizen:Bipasha Zhu]]. Cutting a stark contrast against the vibrant sky, the sweeping lines of Orison’s signature stormwal sculpture captures the grace and beauty of the gentle creatures it portrays. Formally titled "Until Again", artist Bipasha Zhu says that she was inspired by the city’s harmony and weightless strength. To better understand her bashful subjects, Bipasha spent a week living in a cloud submersible studying the stormwals up close.<ref>{{Cite game|build=Star Citizen Alpha 3.14.0|text=Orison discovery tour text|accessdate=2021-07-12|game=}}</ref><br />
<br />
[[StarCitizen:Crusader Industries]] has adopted the stormwal as its company mascot. Visitors to Orison can purchase either [[StarCitizen:Finley the Stormwal|Finley]] or [[StarCitizen:Francis the Stormwal]] as a plushy souvenir, and may even encounter people dressed up as one of these creatures.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4lisFQjx0M Crusader Industries Invites You To Discover Orison] YouTube.
