 * The Chramine Subspecies isn't truly a subspecies but, rather some type of mutation of Chramine.
 * On the body of the Chramine Subspecies is an oil known as Ice Thunder Oil. This oil has hardened greatly on its shell due to the freezing the temperature of its environment and an enzyme it has produced. This oil only reacts in cold environments so it limits the Chramine Subspecies to only cold, harsh areas.
