Description

Sykindrotos, named by scientists to mean Kin's (their star) walking plant, a sentient carnivorous plant that binds itself to the skeletons of AEon in order to hunt; their poisonous leafy-like flowers help protect them. When they outgrow a skeleton and move onto a larger animal they will not abandon the previous skeleton but store it away in case of massive injury. They will also pick up other skeletal parts to armour themselves if they have more than one trap, making a sort of kerberos or chimaera creature. It binds to skeletons using its vine, its roots are planted and are well protected within its "chest." I used a swamp drake skeleton for this because it was the last thing I drew.

I never said so, but this concept and design is really, really awesome! I'm pretty jealous ~ x3 I love the idea of the plant's tender parts being stored safe in a wrapped-up ribcage. Genius!
