The Carnifex.

(Quick note- this is a very generic profile for 'Fex, designed to be adaptable for all settings and situations. Alternate names are provided to avoid GW leaping on people for the word 'Carnifex')
Names/Identification: Carnifex, Fex, Cancer
Species: Bio Construct
Height: 18 feet
Length: 28 feet
Eyes: Crimson
Carapace: Crimson/Black/Purple
What is the Fex? The Fex is a bio construct, purely melee in its nature. Standing 18 foot tall on tough, chitinous hooves with four arms, two of which end as scythe like blades and two of which end up as crushing, crablike claws this is something as an understatement. This is before we account for the horned head with the rows of razor sharp teeth, the long tail with a scythe like protrusion or the jagged chitinous spikes that run down its carapace.
Yet as hostile and aggressive as it appears there is another side to its nature...a gentle, almost 'dumb' side that is fiercely protective and loyal to those it considers its allies, property or pets.
The most notable aspect of the Fex is its mutability. It is an adapting creature capable of spontaneous mutation and regeneration to overcome situations as and when it encounters them. The regeneration and mutation process is slow however, taking a fair bit of time. Thus it is possible to kill the beast and have it return at a later date, from 2 hours to 2 months as its system shuts down and repairs.
(This profile is generic...it will adapt for more specific RP or situations when they arise)
