Nossal



 is a creepy quadrupedal in the game Planet Nomads.

Nossal is an interesting hybrid between earth-like leeches and smaller mammals. This species has great behavioral diversity, the biggest individuals are aggressive and defend their kin at any cost, while the younger specimen are more timid. The rest are mostly peaceful.

Their circular mouths possess circles of teeth perfectly adapted for catching the prey and not letting go. These creatures can be dangerous up close, but they are also able to spew out stomach acids which can poison their prey and sometimes even begin the process of digestion for later consumption.

Nossal is a very fast creature which uses its high speed to its advantage in both attack and defense. This makes it a mighty adversary. However, their soft and unprotected bodies are their weakness.

Nossals inhabit warmer climates, possibly making up for shortage of food by storing nutrition in bladders situated on their backs. Their bodies can nearly double up in size if they ingest enough food.
