Tremor Mole

The tremor mole is a small creature found in many subterranean layers of the world of Bataf, that are recognizable by a white stripe running over their backs. This animal uses it strong claws to dick through dirt and soft rocks, these tunnels are then used by other animals as a way to move through the cave systems. These tunnels are partially used as traps by the omnivorous creatures to any smaller creatures. But the creature is perhaps most known for its unique way of communication. It bangs it heads to the side of the tunnel creating vibrations, hence the name tremor mole. 
== Diet ==
The tremor mole is a small omnivore that roams the caves. It primarily eats smaller creatures, using the tunnels the mole dig as traps. These smaller creatures are mostly mice or worms. The creatures sense the vibrations made by other animals, so that they can lay these traps. Aside from that they supplement their diet with few plants that are based underground. However, the creature has adapted in finding the great underground farms constructed by many dwarven civilizations and alike. Therefore the creature is being seen as a pest upon the farms, as contact between mole and men increased with the spread of underground civilizations.
== Communication ==
The heightened senses to pick up vibrations are also used a way to communicate between different tremor moles. In fact, the creature can feel the vibrational differences between tremor moles and other creatures. Therefore knowing not to setup up a trap when vibrations are felt nearby. Furthermore the creatures bang their heads on purpose on the side of walls to communicate with other tremor moles. With different vibrational lengths and strengths having different meanings. These vibrations are relatively light and would normally not be felt by any humanoid. However, when a large group of tremor moles bang their heads, to indicate that they found a underground farm, the light vibrations can certainly be felt. Which is ironically being used as an early warning system to protect the farms.
