Overview

The animal behind the card

Adults feed mainly on soft fruit and tree sap, while larvae grow in decaying wood and help recycle fallen plant matter. Its fame for strength comes from a compact body, hard exoskeleton, and horns that turn leverage into a weapon.

In Bestiara, this collection reward leads insect allies, turning a small-bodied lineup into a heavy defensive core.
