Hey so... Sorry for seeming dead to anyone who has followed my art. Basically bad stuff happened and bad stuff still is happening that has been keeping me from focusing on uploading works. But this was one of my somewhat older pieces I did that I wish to upload. A species of mine I really like called Purashimu, or originally titled Petal Dragons before I decided on a final name.~

Threat Level: ☆☆☆☆

Info: Purashimu are among the Apex species of the lands. Despite being mostly herbivorus they are very much capable of combat and will not hesitate to fight back if provoked. However they do typically possess a more calm demeanor that allows them to be approached if not engaging. Often residing in forests they elegantly waltz throughout with a air of power and dignity among them. It can also be noted the species has adapted to several environments changing mostly in color and shifts in the toxins that are produced by the barbs along their back and tail. It has been noted more temperate forest dwelling Purashimu bear a more typical poison that slowly drains the life of those afflicted. While desert dwelling Purashimu seem to have adapted a paralytic toxin to immobilize their attackers or the occasional Prey. And colder climate tundra dwelling Purashimu have adapted a sleep based toxin. Interestingly they are a species seemingly evolved to be both plant and draconic, bearing a large bud like blade at the end of their tails. Exceedingly sharp and deadly this is among the reasons for their apex status.

Combat Info: Being a elegant and fast species they often will bewilder their foes with quick movements before zeroing in with powerful swings of their tails to try and slash their attackers with the blade like bud at the tip of their tails.
They can also release toxins from the spikes on their bodies as a means of status based offense. Dependant on the locale they reside in affects this toxin and its effects.

Diet: Purashimu are mainly known for being herbivorus but have been known to target prey when given the opportunity
