Description
Class: Fanged Beast

Ailmentslast

Breaks: Head, claws(right,left), back, tail(severable)

Locations : Ancient forest, Tidal Mangroves, Wildspire waste, Jungle, Coral highlands, Flooded forest, Great Forest.

Biology: a large, intelligent and agile species of fanged beast known to prefer tropical and forested areas. Balamajal are semi-arboreal able to traverse the treetops with ease using there strong fore-limbs and sharp claws, thier long prehensile tails act as both a balance and an extra gripping limb. Despite being formidable predators Balamajal frequently supplement their diet with blast toads, research has shown this is less for food and more for the volatile chemicals the toads produce. Through some form of biochemical process Balamajal can isolate and absorb the blast toads explosive liquid and even separate the active ingredients. It can then use them itself secreting one chemical from its claws and fangs and the other coating the spines on its back. During hunting Balam-ajalwill leap onto prey leaving bite and claw marks coated in the first liquid. Afterwards it will fire its back spines into its prey causing the wounds to detonate. The spikes are made of kerotin and can be replaced very quickly once fired.

Balam-ajal are surprisingly sociable and deeply bonded to their mates, pairs will hunt, feed, and defend their shared territory together. Usually only splitting up for short periods of time to patrol their turf. Balam-ajal mate for life and it’s extremely rare for one to take another mate even if their previous one has passed. Their cubs are often the target of poaching as exotic pets for wealthy yet crooked nobles.

(Gonna put a link to the amino post because deviantart is one of those sites where you can’t upload multiple images in a post for some reason. It has additional ecology info and a picture of what the cubs of this species look like for anyone interested)
