Characteristics

Killipedes are giant armoured centipede-type monsters, however (like real centipedes) it only have fifteen pairs of legs. Their body is made from navy blue and orange armoured segments and light green legs. At the last segment of the tail a poisonous sting is found and the first segment of all is the wine red unarmoured head that contains a pair of eyes and two violet fangs. Its armoured plates offer it a high degree of protection, but they have no form of defence against attack magic.
