Solifya

Solifya are small Chloro-wyverns created by Feral Jinouga

Desription
Small animals, they resemble a tortoise in shape, but have in place of a shell they have large, spiky growths that resemble cacti. These growths are filled with a poison, albeit very a very weak one, and grow very quickly. Their heads are large in comparison to the rest of their body, and are very hard. Their main body is a rough, sandy color while the growths are green and brown.

Behavior
Solifya live in the small cactus patches found throughout the desert. These patches provide them both with a means of disguise as well as food. The instant a Solifya sees movement from an animal larger than itself, it will quickly burrow beneath the sands, leaving only its growths exposed. If the animal in question is one that eats cacti, then it will likely leave that cactus patch after eating a Solifya's growth due to the foul tasting poison inside of them.
