Source This is a tektite with the golden monster template applied to it. An extremely rare variant of tektite that hunts in solitude, the golden tektite derives its name from its gold-colored carapace. It wields uncanny speed, and is both more durable and much stronger than ordinary tektites. According to rumor, this creature is the result of magical enhancement—said to be empowered by a mighty sage, a Great Fairy, or some other source of potent magic.
