Moby Dick

The Moby Dick is the ability of Herman Melville.

Description
It is a large aircraft in the shape of a whale. It has a total mass of 29, 000 tons. However, Herman mentions that Moby Dick is in fact, a living being; one who freely roamed in the sky. Nevertheless, The Guild turned it into an air fortress, with more than 70% of it being modified. Because of this, he no longer had control of the whale.

It is indicated that Herman's ability also involves creating volant white whales instead of simply controlling them. This is seen when Ango takes Herman to interrogate him regarding the Guild, and a white whale similar to Moby-Dick (however much smaller in scale) was left on the bench he was sitting on.
