| The largest of the cerphan's, the great-horned cerphan is over five feet at the shoulder and has an outer top shell covered in curved spikes. The male's coloration is dusky brown with dull red and yellow mottled patches across its shell. The female is sandy brown with barely noticeable brown and red patches. This coloration affords them significant camouflage while buried in the sand waiting in ambush for their prey. The spikes are not sharp, but the cerphan is still capable of inflicting quite a bit of damage with them when charging or slashing from side-to-side. | The largest of the cerphan's, the great-horned cerphan is over five feet at the shoulder and has an outer top shell covered in curved spikes.

| The great-horned Cerphans, like all of its cousins, are creatures of the deserts and hot steppes. Their natural coloration provides them with some measure of camouflage; although it has few natural enemies. The myriad of horns that cover their outer shell not only help radiate the heat of their body, but collect what rain and moisture they can and funnel it to the cerphan's mouth. | The great-horned Cerphans, like all of its cousins, are creatures of the deserts and hot steppes.

| The shell will make 1d10 quantities (MR3; Earth) hard sections suitable for armour or shields. The musk glands 1-2 quantities of the male cerphan (MR2; Earth, Fire) can be used in for several types of acid or poisons. Finally, there are 1+2d10 quantities (MR2; Earth) of internal organs. | The shell will make 1d10 quantities (MR3; Earth) hard sections suitable for armour or shields.
