Arkadais are a species of crocodilians indigenous to the lakes and rivers of the island kingdom of Gamelon, specifically within the capital city of Domodai Palace, the northern coast of the island such as at the wrecked Gobiyan Ship, Shutoy Lake, and Washubi Swamp. They are a surprisingly harmless species, and adventurers can even use them to cross bodies of water without fear of being attacked, though those within Washubi Swamp periodically submerge unlike others in other areas, which can be dangerous. They do not appear to be particularly intelligent, and are known to swim back and forth along set paths.

Being crocodilians, they are distantly related to both the humanoid Dairas and Zazaks of Hyrule.
