The glyptodont is a colossal heavily-armored armadillo who wields its tail like a morningstar. Its entire body is covered in a bony dome that makes for nigh-impenetrable armor. Despite its impressive size and natural weaponry, a glyptodont rarely goes on the offensive. Its content to graze on bugs and grass all day, wherever those are most abundant. When threatened, the glyptodont turns tail—that is, it'll smash its terrifying tail through any would-be "threat." |
