Origin:
Coloxious is inspired from a Philippine creature known as the “Kapre”, characterized as a Tree giant or Tree Demon. Kapres are normally described as smoking a very large ganja pipe whose strong smell would attract human attention. They are not necessarily considered to be evil. However, it may turn vengeful when the tree that they are inhabiting is cut down.
If a Kapre befriends any human, especially because of love, the Kapre will consistently follow its "love interest" throughout life.
Coloxious name is a combination of the words Colossal and noxious.
