## Abilities

* **Enhanced Biology-** Gremlynx possesses enhanced physical characteristics such as enhanced strength, durability, stamina, agility, dexterity, and endurance that far surpass those of a human.
* **Enhanced Senses-** Gremlynx possesses an enhanced sense of smell, hearing, balance, and vision.
	+ **Night Vision-** His eyes can see in low-light conditions.
* **Organic Metal Scales-** Gremlynx's body has patches of organic metal plating that while malleable, is incredibly durable. This allows him to shrug off most slashing and piercing attacks.
* **Retractable Claws-** Much like Earth felines, Gremlynx possesses razor-sharp, retractable claws in his fingers.
* **Prehensile Tail-** Gremlynx has a completely prehensile tail, allowing him to coil his tail around opponents like a boa constrictor.
* **Venomous Fangs-** His bite injects a potent venom that causes the victim to freeze from the inside out as a form of frostbite.
	+ **Venom Immunity-** Gremlynx possesses a high tolerance to venom and other toxins due to his own venom leaking into his bloodstream.
	+ **Insulated Body-** A side effect of his venom, acts as a coolant fluid to keep his body from overheating from his energy production and emission.
* **Elasticity-** Gremlynx's body is incredibly malleable, able to perform extraordinary feats of flexibility and mobility by twisting and stretching. This also makes Gremlynx resistant to damage caused by bludgeoning and also keeps his body from being torn apart by the momentum generated from his energy generation and emission.
	+ **Spring-like Limbs-** Gremlynx can store and release force by coiling his muscles akin to a coil spring. This not only allows for enhanced flexibility but can allow him to jump higher and farther than he would otherwise be capable of.
* **Metal Skeleton-** Gremlynx possesses a durable, yet malleable organic metal skeleton for internal reinforcement.
	+ **Energy Generation-** Gremlynx's body is capable of generating a mysterious energy that is created by his metallic bones, generated almost like static makes electricity. He can generate enough of this energy to channel and manipulate into streams, projectiles, or even shields. In desperate circumstances, Gremlynx can convert his own vitality into this energy.
		- **Energy Vortex-** Gremlynx can create large, swirling torrents of energy. While simplistic, this ability is incredibly versatile and can be used for both offensive and defensive purposes. Gremlynx can even mold the spiral energy into various shapes, such as drills, or condensing it into "bullets" for ranged attacks.

## Weaknesses

* **Electromagnetic Pulse-** A strong enough electromagnetic pulse can disrupt Gremlynx's ability to stretch his body.
* **Vitality Limit-** If Gremlynx converts too much of his vitality into energy, it will leave him completely exhausted.
* **Rust-** The organic metal making up his scales and bones can rust under the right circumstances. This rust can be debilitating if not treated.

## Mythology

Heralding from the incredibly large planet of Dragard in the far North Eastern Regions of the planet, are the Tanzro, one of the many intelligent species who call Dragard home. The Tanzro themselves, having evolved from a beast that once roamed the Ice Tundra's during Dragards Ice Age, have given them many questionable adaptations such as having venom purposely seeping into their blood streams to use as a coolant. The Tanzro rule the North Eastern reaches of the planet as the second most technologically advanced species on the planet.

Due to the large size of their planet, Tanzro's rarely ever run into other species that share their skies, but do occasionally encounter another species within their genus that are a more brutish and simple people from the warmer regions of the planet. The Tanzro can be a bit of a belligerent species, having evolved they way they did makes them always boiling for a challenge. This brutal nature is rather unappreciated by many of the other intelligent species found on the planet but despite this, the Tanzro are able to show restraint when encountering a non-competitive being.

As for now, the Tanzro species still seek to conquer the great challenge that is their planet. Many young Tanzro's will set out, trying to map out and encounter all the different peoples and landscapes of their planet. They even hope to reach the skies, mapping out the different floating islands that are for now out of their reach.

## Trivia

* Gremlynx's concept originated from the mythological concept of a rivalry between tigers and dragons, with DrezenDragon combining the two species into one race.
* The name "Tanzro" comes from the Japanese word for forging "Tanzo" and "zero", as they were the first species created by Drezen.
* The planets name "Dragard", is based on the realms of Midgard and Hygard, with the "dra" being a reference to the mythical creature Hydra.
* Tanzro as they currently are, where mainly inspired by Gear 4 Luffy from One Piece**,** Bakto from the Azure Striker Gunvolt game series, and Meicrackmon from Digimon, along with various other games Drezen has liked over the years.
* A Tanzro can be seen watching the dance preformed by the Slag Manzardill in the Totem Cradel on X'nelli in the 10th episode of And Beyond. This is meant to serve as a reference to the creator who has work personally with the Ink Tank.
