The creature has a massive, quadrupedal body with muscular limbs ending in sharp claws. Its skin is dark, scaly, and armor-like, textured like hardened chitin. Instead of a head, a smooth, eyeless dome rises from its torso, sprouting long, twitching tendrils. It crouches low to the ground in a tense, predatory stance, ready to pounce—its entire form radiates silent, alien menace. Extremely detailed, high resolution texture, epic stance.
