"The giant air-floaters from the dark elf lands. Only the brave dare to hunt them, only the strong survive them."
Hunter[src]

Netches are jellyfish-like creatures that appear in The Elder Scrolls V: Dragonborn.

They are neutral creatures, and stay docile even when bumped into. If they are attacked, netches will immediately turn hostile towards the Dragonborn.

Locations

"Netch are often domesticated on the Morrowind mainland. Wild netch were first sighted on Solstheim several decades ago, perhaps drawn by the familiar flora that has grown up in the southern ashlands."
―Loading screen[src]

Commonly found near water in the southern regions of Solstheim, netch are often found in groups of three to four, usually consisting of two adults and one or two calves. Larger or smaller groups can be found as well. Also quite a few can be found at a waterfall on the western side of Solstheim just north-west of the Water Stone, very close to one of the ancient chests in the Deathbrand Quest.

Combat

Netches are passive until something attacks them first. When threatened they will ram into enemies and attack with their tentacles, dealing considerable shock damage. Netches can be a challenge to fight when they are over water, because attacks are not possible while submerged. They are capable of quite easily killing low-level players, as well as any Hunters or Reavers who attack them.
