CULTURE
- Diet: Carnivore, strictly eating meat.
- Communication: Hisses, being able to release the sound in order to warn its own species they're entering its territory in their lair.
- Technology level: The only remaining group has constructed a burrow/lair, but they're unable to advance further than that.
- Religion/Beliefs: N/A.
- General behavior: The entirety of the Snakes life is built on hunting for food, and feeding themselves. Due to their limit numbers, they will literally breed with any of their species at any chance in order to expand their numbers. Usually dragging the food back to their lair, before devouring it. It is possible to tame the Resnekar, however difficult it may be.
The creature has existed almost as long as the Epicanthix species themselves, however, the creature later developed and began hunting the Epicanthix. Through technological advancements, the Epicanthix was able to retaliate and almost wipe the Resnekar from the face of Panatha. However they were merely in hiding growing in numbers, more recently appearing and frightening the creatures of Panatha with his ginormous size.
There are tales of one Epicanthix who defended the Resnekar and managed to tame one of them, through years of bonding with one. It has not been done since.
