Armored Bulldozer Barroth is a Deviant of Barroth introduced in ???.
Physiology[]
Armored Bulldozer Barroth is covered in dark red-colored, rigid plates of armored hide with brown stains. The stains come from years worth of mud adhered to the Brute Wyvern's body. The crown structure on its head is much larger, even more so than a Jade Barroth's. The crown appears spikier now, giving it a slight spade-like appearance. It possesses enlarged claws on its limbs and its tail tip has become larger as well. This crown structure is an obsidian color, with red highlights.
Behavior[]
It spends most of its time wallowing in bogs, partially submerged in mud. They are significantly more aggressive than normal Barroth and becomes extremely territorial when disturbed. Armored Bulldozer Barroth remain insectivores, feeding on Neopterons such as Altaroth, Bnahabra, and Konchu. When it wants food, it will break open an insect nest to feed on the Neopterons inside.
Ecology[]
Habitat[]
Armored Bulldozer Barroth will inhabit sandy areas with mud pits, like the Wildspire Waste, the Sandy Plains, or the Scorched Desert.
Ecological Niche[]
Barroth mostly eat insects such as Altaroth and Bnahabra. Extremely territorial, they will lie in wait underneath their bogs and lash out at anything that disturbs them. Due to their aggression and power, only the most powerful predators of the desert such as Black Diablos or Deviljho are capable of defeating an A.B. Barroth, although the rare territorial dispute with an Elder Dragon may also prove threatening. These creatures are quite powerful, being a Deviant, but when compared with other Deviants, they are a bit on the weaker side.
Biological Adaptations[]
A.B. Barroth share many of the same adaptations as regular Barroth, such as nostrils on the top of their "crown". However, this crown is much larger, and spade-like in appearance. Sometimes, rocks get stuck in the mud that it utilizes, giving them the moniker of Armored Bulldozer. These rocks can be used in any mud-related attacks, giving the chance to stun. A.B. Barroth are also quite strong, being able to throw boulders with its crown.
