Reptiles
Delv Ihoo consist of various reptilian creatures. From lizards to snakes and more. Coming in both small and large sizes they can be either prey or predator to the Delvihen wolves on this island. They range all over the island except for the colder territories. They are commonly found in forests, grasslands, and more. Being a small creature they too are often the prey of different creatures that roam around. The island has various poisonous creatures alongside non poisonous. Some are even used to make antidotes against specific venom. They too are among the more colorful beings that can be found on Delv Ihoo. Reptiles have been popular for summoning spirits as well due to how fast and nimble some are.
Creature:Spiked fat tails / Class:Reptile / Power:Elemental / Diet:Insectivore / Family:Eublepharidae / Lifespan:1-7 / Status:common
Spiked fat tails are extremely common in Raishida Valley. They are crepuscular as they only come out in the early morning or evening. When out they will look for insects and bask on electric stones. Whenever a storm takes place in this valley the stones will consume the electricity and this is what these small lizards love. After all when they do, their quill like spikes will release electricity. Electric wolves are generally not affected at all by their electric powers, but they are cautious as they will often raise their spikes and release them, upon doing so it will stab the attackers skin. It's not pleasant and therefore electric wolves will try to kill them as quickly as possible. Despite their size they make for a

great snack. They have so much fat stored in their body and even more so in their tail that one lizard can ease the hunger. In the wild they store fat in their tails as a reserve for more dire times. They live alone as males are very aggressive towards one another. Females are sometimes found in small groups. When hunted they can also drop their tail to attempt an escape. When threatened they will shake their tails and hiss. Outsiders generally have bad experiences with them, as biting them they'll release not just their spikes but also release electricity which leaves those unaware for a big surprise. A horned variation does exist, this one is known to sell well on the black markets. Especially the spiked nighthorns. They are the only variation that can only be found in caves of Raishida Valley, and they are said to be capable of releasing a bright light from their horns.

Creature:Horned python / Class:Reptile / Power:None / Diet:Carnivore / Family:Pythonidae / Lifespan:1-35 / Status:Common
Horned pythons spend most of their day buried in the sand. They are active either during the day or nighttime. When hunting they will bury themselves under the stand but allow for their horns to be sticking out. It seems that smaller critters are easily fooled into thinking it is a small scrub, as some will dig these out to consume the remaining roots. When the prey is close enough they will strike and grab their prey while dragging them under the sand to suffocate. They are terrified of sand wolves as despite being highly venomous, sand wolves are immune to this. Sand pups have been known to practice their hunting skills on smaller specimens of horned pythons. Sand wolves consider them a tasty meal. Wolves
