Tornir

== Description ==
=== Behavior ===
* Female use their small claws on their torso to carry large clutches of eggs and moss for nests. Spores from their body will infect the eggs early on, but signs of infection will only start once the creature is much older.
* Males use their small claws on their torso for carrying large prey and materials for dens.
=== Artist Headcanon ===
* For centuries, have been in an evolutionary arms race against themselves, trying to evolve to get rid of the fungus while also evolving to make sure it doesn't get overwhelmed by the fungi's evolution as well.
* They frequently grow and release spores from their fluff by shaking around and causing a large spore cloud. These spores coming from 's parasitic fungus then coat the surrounding environment and any unlucky creature in the area, causing lots of health issues, and for weaker animals, death.
* If a breaks one of its horns or loses any limbs, a weaker, wooden version will grow back on its place.
