An Adapted species of nakarkos.

Appearance
Kaikoros at first appears to be a spinosaurus-like brute wyvern. It appears to have multiple eyes on it's head and has spikes coming out of the bottom of the arms. This brute wyvern also has a sail on it's back like a spinosaur. Kaikoros's first form also has a strange blob like structure on it's sail. In it's second phase it's true form is revealed. Kaikoros is an octopus like monster cling onto a ramshackle skeleton made out of a juvenile lagiacrus, a plesioth skeleton with it's head being inside the lagiacrus's head. The octopus's arms are connected in pairs to the skull, arms, legs and tail.

Reason for Nakarkos's adaption
As the second great dragon war started Nakarkos became more plentiful despite the constant death around it but as the the war went on there population dwindled. This was due to their slowness. More carcasses were eaten by smaller more nimble scavengers. The smaller more ambidextrous Nakarkos got to these carcasses while their was still meat and bone. Overtime those with longer arms could gather easier from carcasses and their mantle got smaller to allow for faster movement. By the time the second war ended these nakarkos had been the majority of the population were these faster nakarkos. After a plague of neopterons they fled to the sea. Many years of evolution later the first Kaikoros is spotted.
