Rooter

Art by Anarchisme

A large, pig-shaped saurian native to Sxriix, this creature is often tamed and domesticated for a myriad of uses. Commonly, domesticated Rooters are used as mounts or for searching for rare root vegetables and other buried objects, but their docile nature makes them a lovely companion for many Rixixi, so long as their habit of digging quite literally wherever they can think of can be dealt with.
