Lipetar

Lipetars are a type of small Leviathans found in swamps.



Physiology
Lipetars look like small aligators, their body is covered with dark brown scales and the back is covered with barnacles. Their forelegs are small with tiny fingers, while the hind legs have become flippers. Their great head is bright green with three petal-like structures and two yellow eyes in dark markings, their most shocking feature is that they actually have three jaws and can open them wide above the water, their tongue ends with a little ball, in this position they look like a lilypad.

Ecology
Lipetars inhabit swamp regions, these places must have lilypads so they can use their mimicry efficently. They can be found sometimes in ponds or water zones without lilypads, wandering around the territory or searching a good zone to position. Sometimes they can even bury in soft soil and prey on land.

Lipetars strategy is imitate a lilypad, the sweet scent that its tongue produce is used to attract prey like insects or birds. They will feed on any small creature that falls into their trap. Despite having strong jaws, they can't drag big preys underwater and they'll have to leave they prey in case this happens.

Lipetars normally stand still and ignore creatures underwater because they use their camouflage as protection too, they will snap anything that goes over them. However, if they someway spot the hunters or get hit, they will take their true stance and attack with bites.
