Troglodon

Troglodons, sometimes referred to as The Pale Death by those unfortunate enough to encounter them, are enormous reptilian creatures which feature in Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy setting.

Description
Reaching nearly the same size as a Carnosaur, the twin-tailed Troglodons are mighty creatures which spend most of their time in the many cave systems which run beneath the dark continent of Lustria, only emerging from their caverns to hunt. Essentially blind as a result of their subterranean existence, they rely on other, not-yet understood, methods to locate their prey, their long, whisker-like appendages guiding them unerringly through the dense jungle.

Once a victim item is located, the Troglodon will attempt to catch it in its toxic jaws, but if this is not possible, it will instead spit its highly-corrosive venom at the prey, the resultant sizzle from the fluid meeting flesh guiding the beast in for the kill.

As Mounts
Whilst most of the creatures of the Lustrian jungles are employed in one form or another by the dominant Lizardman species, Troglodons are untameable by any except the exceedingly-rare two-tailed Skink Oracles. These creatures share a natural bond, gifting the pair a degree of closeness unparalleled in the Warhammer World.
