Artwork

Craus is a rare land-dwelling creature, covered in grass that camouflages its thorax. Born on sand, the creatures wander away from the ocean to make their home in fields. The iconic dwellings that appear on their back are the product of the most ingenious Puug, who choose Craus as a host due to its warmth. These dwellings, and the creatures who live within, protect Craus in battle.
