Additional biome creature-- Agate Herculus
Pretty sure Phantony have one... and it very likely eats potatoes like her.
--DATABANK--
The Agate Herculus is a large, peaceful crystalline beetle. While it can be found in the Dark Opal Forest, it's seemingly more common in the upper cave system.
Having a tough body made of solid crystal, this beetle is heavily reinforced with protection. Even the larvae are spotted with crystals as a mock defense. Strangely enough, the pupa is at least 3 times harder than adults, same with the eggs.
This beetle have 2 forms: Around 60% of all Agate Herculus have a horn of that of a Rhino Beetle; The other 40% are Hercules Beetles
Both adult and larva largely feeds on fungus, while the latter is currently the only thing that eat Fiber Lilies.
Folks in Opal Town have utilized these beetles, training them to do various tasks like moving heavy cargoes. They also learned to go around riding the beetle, even going as far of forging "beetle armors" for them. Larvae are kept in pens as livestock.
Virtually impossible to be harmed, this beetle wouldn't care more or less if disturbed, however it can be trained to protect various things like farms or their own herder.
The most notable feature about this beetle, is that it can be enchanted. Dark mages can provide magical boosts to these beetles, giving it various boosts like increased speed, strength or flight distance.
Unfortunately, it is still no match against Brute Beetles, which are at least twice as large. This gentle giant isn't meant to fight anyway.
Assessment: Technically Opal Town livestock, magic compatible
