Porphyron

Propyron, a dark creature that's born from darkness and chaos, are very dangerous creatures. These creatures are known to be the source of wars, plagues, deaths and natural disasters.

Appearance
Porphyron's are known for their terrifying appearances. They are about as large as a 6 story building but are able to shrink themselves into the size of a horse. They have 7 tongues and 7 tails. Each tongue serves as a purpose, as well as the tails, using them as deadly weapons. Pophyron's have the body of a wolf, wings of an eagle and the tails of a lizard. Their fur is usually a dark brown or black, some can be a bright white and some can be a mixture of white and black or brown and black. The feathers on their wings are usually coordinating with their fur color, usually fading in the a lighter color at the end of their wings.

Behaviour
Porphyron's are very aggressive creatures, seeing anything as a threat and will fight any and everything. When threatened, they will spread their wings and open their mouths, showing their many tongues and sharp, teeth that holds venom. When relaxed, they usually will have a bored look, their mouth will be closed and all 7 of their tails raised, their wings. When scared, the Porphyron's tail will lash around as their wings will spread, trying to make themselves look intimidating to scare off whatever is scaring them. When flirty or trying to impress a female, they will usually hold their head up high, their wings will be loosely at their side as their fur has a bright colored electricity flowing through it to impress.

Habitat
Porphyron's like the darkness of Mormior. Though they are known to be extinct or a simple myth, it is known they like the place of their birth, and Porphyron are known to be birthed by Hel, the creator of Mormior and ruler of Dark Creatures. Some Porphyron are born in a different place than Mormior, and they will most likely be seen at their birth place, though they're known to wander into the God Lands and Gehenna at some times.

Breeding and Pups
Little is known about how Porphyron's mate, but there's a theory. The male will usually take a female whenever he wants, and will be able to pick any female that's not mated. If two Porphyron males want the same female, they will usually battle to the death or until one submits. The female can also interject in the battle by choosing one of the males. She may have no choice in her mate, but when two battle it out, she does. Their pups are usually harmless and docile, making them fragile and easy to kill, but a the mother will protect her baby as she hunts, usually having the baby on her back or keeping it in their cavern (which is normally a place where the Porphyron mate) with the male. The male doesn't do much in helping the child grow, but he will teach them how to fight and use tactics against other creatures, as the Porphyron's are very smart and use tactics in battle rather than strength and powers or agility.

Diet and Hunting Method
Porphyron's mainly eat meat and what is called a Yugrin berry. The Yugrin berry is a poisonous berry that are found all over Apenia. The Porphyron is the only one known to be able to eat them as they use their many tongues to prevent the poison from killing them. The use the first tongue to eat the berries, the next two will separate the berries and the poison by using the unique saliva in their mouth. The last four tongues do similar things, two swallow the berries as the other two store the poison in a sack, coating it in the special saliva to prevent it from harming them. The Porphyron then turns the poison into venom that they can then use to their advantages but injecting it into a victim through their claws or teeth. Their hunting for meat is very interesting, as they hunt on their own, using their wings and tails as an advantage against their prey.

Ability{s}
The Porphyron's rely mainly on illusion and close range attacks as they have their venom ( which is has an LD50 of 0.5 mg/kg which is very lethal). They use their illusions of creating many of itself or using a black mist that is impossible to see through. They have the ability to absorb certain powers, so if fired at with fire, electricity or anything similar, they can "swallow" it, using a gland in their body to produce a similar power, making their fur crawl with the same substance. They are weak to long range attacks due to not having much to work with when an opponent is at a distance. As a recap, they rely on absorption, illusion, and close range attacks.

Trivia

 * The only know way to stop Porphyron venom from stopping the heart is by using the Porphyron's saliva. The method to get it is either take some from a corpse as their saliva doesn't dissolve or evaporate when dead, or take some from a Porphyron willing to give it. A person must take the saliva through a syringe and inject it into the victim. If the venom is not treated, the victim will die with in 7 hours, usually suffering from symptoms such as: headaches, vomiting, numbness, severe pain, random bleeding from eyes or mouth, coughing up a bit of the venom, or shaking and high fever.
 * The females are usually very docile, not caring to attack threats as if a male is their she knows he will protect her.
 * Females are very protective of the males, when a threat is around, she will push herself up against the male's body. In fact, instead of her looking for protection from the male, she is in fact protecting him by guarding his neck from the threat.
 * Porphyron's are extremely territorial and will not tolerate other creatures on their territory and will attack on sight.
 * The Porphyron's fur is very soft and can be used for alchemy to create remedies.
