Lake Arkados Adult
Spoiler
Most swamps and lakes are populated by at least one family of arkados. These families are very unconventional. They consist of two adults and five to eight hatchlings. The adults care for the hatchlings but do so in a very unfriendly manner. If observed for a few days, one would conclude that these creatures all hate each other, but only because the arkados are always grumpy. While the hatchlings like to sit in the sun, the adults prefer the safety of the water. The arkados are swift swimmers, traveling long distances with ease, even in shallow waters. Despite their sharp claws and teeth, the arkados are herbivores. They feed on roots and grass and sometimes even flowers. Some speculate the arkados used to be carnivores but changed over the years as their magic doesn't affect only people. Bugs and other creatures are influenced by the arkados' magic just as much, and they all learned to keep their distance from the arkados. So even if the arkados would want to hunt, they won't find any prey as everyone and everything scurries away as soon as they sense the presence of these creatures. No creature wants to feel afraid all the time.
Honestly love the darker aspect of these creatures! The designs are fantastic as well. Very different. The Lake Arkados looks fantastic with that green on it! I do wish there was a variant with the Swamp's pinks, but with the same base color as the Lake's.Hitsugaya wrote: ↑October 1st, 2023, 10:17:55 am Swamp Arkados Adult

Oh my goodness, these guys are too much!!! Kicking myself I can't get one of these sweeties. I love the pink on the Swamp Arkados, but the Lake Arkados is so striking! What absolutely delightful creachers... Huge props to Mysfytt, I love how they go from little balls of fluff to these guys.Hitsugaya wrote: ↑October 1st, 2023, 10:17:55 am Swamp Arkados Adult
