These massive reptilian beasts most likely weren't this way from the very beginning.
Percival could tell from the way they moved that they were evolved beasts, adapting past their original form to survive in the acidic, mana-dense waters of the marsh.
Unlike normal crocodiles, their scales had absorbed metallic minerals from the swamp bed, forming a natural, spiky plate armor that covered 90% of their body.
They were slate-grey in color, resembling floating boulders when submerged.
They had eyes, but Percival could tell that they really couldn't see at all with them. They were milky white and atrophied (blind), relying entirely on other senses.
When they opened their maws hungrily, he saw the irregular, rusted teeth that lined their jaws, likely capable of crushing plate mail.
