Description
Armadillo wolves are relatively violent beasts that roam forested and moutainous regions. They are social predators that attack figures whom they deem as threats to their well-being. The armadillo wolf is a relatively large animal, similar both in build and size to the real life gray wolf. Armadillo wolves are slender animals with large descending rib cages and sloping backs. These quadrupeds possess four elongated legs that are considerably robust, with comparatively small paws. Armadillo wolves have a definite color pattern, with their body components being different shades of gray and blue. Their coats are comprised of short, coarse, and sparse fur, primarily light gray in color, with the exception of the underbelly and paws, which are white.
The species' hybridization is evident upon the examination of the armadillo wolf's back, which is protected by a thick plated armor, dark gray in pigmentation. The plates are formed by dermal bone covered in relatively small, overlapping scales resembling the scutes of armadillos. In addition to those concealing its back, rigid shields are present over the shoulders and along the entire length of an armadillo wolf's tail. Lastly, additional armor covers a portion of the creature's head, giving the impression that it is masked. In accordance to their namesake, the armadillo, armadillo wolves lack protective casing on their underbellies, which instead are covered in soft, white fur. Dark blue stripes appear on certain parts of the creature's body, most specifically underneath the protective casing.
