'''Korbats''' are [[Wikipedia:Bat|bat]]-like [[Neopet]]s that were among the original roster available for creation from [[Neopets|the sites]] founding. They are [[wikipedia:nocturnal|nocturnal]] Neopets who are usually friendly and welcoming, even if they do look like [[wikipedia:vampire|vampire]]s.

~~'''Korbats'''~~ are a [[~~Wikipedia~~:~~Bat~~|~~bat~~]]-like [[~~Neopet~~]]~~. Despite appearances, they are not blood~~-~~suckers, though they can bite. They are small, nocturnal~~ and ~~inquisitive beings with a keen sense of smell~~.

Though they have big ears, they are noted for their [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=1&id=163 keen sense of smell] rather than a sense of [[wikipedia:animal echolocation|echolocation]] - this is makes them more like the [[wikipedia:megabat|megabat]]s - old world fruit bats - than the [[wikipedia:microbat|microbat]]s - insectivorous and vampire bats.

==~~Overview==~~

They have a long tail which they use to [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=1&id=163 anchor] [http://images.neopets.com/pets/korbat_starry_baby.gif themselves] when hanging upside down, and arms are connected to the top edge of their wings. In the four basic [[colours]], it is only these wings that change colour - the rest of the body stays white. In some depictions (such as in trading cards) the insides of their ears change colour too.

''...to ~~be added~~...''

They are inquisitive Neopets who are happiest when the [[Kreludor|moon]] is full and they are up to mischief. The [[Maraquan]] Korbat is modelled after the [[wikipedia:stingray|stingray]]. In the [[Neopets Trading Card Game]], Korbats are associated with the element of darkness.

==Battledome==

In the [[Battledome]], Korbats take thirty percent less damage from Darkness attacks, but thirty percent more damage from Light attacks. They also have six species abilities:
