Aggressive. The phidian are very aggressive, predatory creatures. They travel in small pods of 1-6, throughout all the temperate zones of Aihrde. They prefer thick forests or jungles but dwell on the banks of slow-moving rivers, lakes, and the like. These creatures are particularly aggressive and do not shy away from attack prey many times larger than themselves. When it attacks it lifts its head, rather than lowering its jaw, opening the span of its jaw as wide as it can. When it 'bites' it drops the upper jaw, which falls like a steel trap, crushing its prey. They generally do not use their claws as weapons, but rather use them to tear through the armor plating of their favorite meal, turtles. Ironically, this allows them to rend through armor as well.
