Volvidon

Volvidon is an armadillo-like Fanged Beast that inhabits the Sandy Plains and Volcano regions.



Physiology
Volvidons are medium-sized monsters, slightly larger than an Aptonoth. They are covered in a jointed hide of red armor plates, which are segmented around the midsection and allow the Volvidon to curl into a ball. The Volvidon will attack the hunter using its long tongue, strong limbs, paralytic saliva, foul smelling gas, and a ricochet-jump.

Abilities
It is capable of spitting out a paralyzing liquid and inflicts Soiling using a foul odor. Being a Fanged Beast, the Volvidon uses attacks similar to those of Arzuros and Lagombi.

Behavior
At the first sight of trouble the large Pelagus will roll up and if possible quickly roll away, but if cornered Volvidon can be surprisingly aggressive.

Habitat
Volvidon is found in the Sandy Plains and the Volcano. However, surprisingly Volvidon are seen inhabiting the cool temperate Deserted Island as well when first thought to only inhabit areas with intense and extreme heat.
