Magnordeon baeurodon

Magnordeon baeurodon, or more commonly know as simply the Magnorden, was a mammal that was alive primarily during the early Melwendian time period. The fossils of Magnordeon baeurodon can today be found in the deserts of Luxios. A Luxiosi citizen had accidentally stumbled across its remains, as a part of the collarbone was protruding out of a sand dune. Magnordeon was also believed to help carry other animals across the scorching hot desert owing to its thick hooves that remained intact, and huge crater-like bone structures that rested on its body.
Due to its large stature and constant traveling, it likely rested on the hot sands for weeks if not months. Magnordeon had the unique ability of turning off all unnecessary bodily functions to last without water or food for long periods of time while resting, this however would leave them vulnerable to predators. The Magnordeon is estimated to be have grown up to 7.5 meters long; a fossilized juvenile was also found, measuring roughly 2 meters. A fossilized mummy of a Magnordeon found in Ardat was found with several large raised bumps that remained on its skin even after death, showing that the creature was often covered in prehistoric ticks and thus likely had a symbiotic relationship with birds that ate the ticks off of its body.
