Description
Pastinaca are giant, fetid, scavenging weasels of the Atlan Plains. They are large enough to scare away predators from their meals, and freakishly odiferous enough to keep from having their prize carcass reclaimed by the said predators. They can prey on other creatures, although their stocky and muscular build for such a graceful animal species is more for picking the bones of an already dead animal. Their faces are gnarled and hideous, which is a trait often in tandem with thier lifestyle of scavenging. Since they are weasels, they have kept their anal skink glands passed down from generations, although they are more used for warding off other Pastinaca or larger predators on the Atlan Plains.
