 The carapace of these creatures is a dark green, nearly black. This color changes the moment they open their shell, becoming more of an emerald color. The shell glimmers in the light, as if it were covered in facets of a gem. It uses this effect to blind and distract opponents while others attack. They have developed a method of group magic to heat the area around them. The larger the group, the larger the area heated. This allows them to survive in cold and harsh climates.

 Where can it be found:

 Verdant Shell Beetles typically form colonies beneath the forest canopy, consuming underbrush and fallen trees which contributes to the forest''s health. Over time, these colonies can become overcrowded. When this occurs, the majority of the colony migrates in search of new areas to colonize. If these beetles settle in farmland, they become a significant threat by consuming crops and wooden structures, and will aggressively defend their new territory against any perceived threats. This behavior makes them notorious among farmers and a frequent target for extermination quests.
