Mossy Agnaktor

The Mossy Agnaktor (Crocidilimorph muscarma) is a subspecies of Agnaktor that lives in swampy regions. Similar to the original Agnaktor, its hide becomes armored if it stays aboveground long enough. Its beak is short and dull due to generations of burrowing through soft mud.

In-Game Information
A Leviathan that swaddles itself in shrubbery to protect its earthy hide. Due to burrowing through mud and not rock, its beak is short and dull, and it sprays high-pressured dirt from an internal storage sac. Beware, as if it spends too much time above ground, its mossy armor will grow back.
