Anopheles

A Spine Sucker. Dwells in the river mud near the city of Caero and occasionally attacks barges or Xandressan riverboats to acquire fresh food.
This insect­-like creature has an insatiable craving for marrow, and its proboscis tongue is the perfect tool for drilling holes into its victim's bones. While the Spine Suckers originally were native to the Blasted Lands, over the last few years these malicious Mage Spawn have been sighted as far east as the Roa Galtor. Whether this is due to a natural pattern of reproduction, or whether Warlords have been taking these Mage Spawn with them to battlefields throughout the Land is unknown. While the creature can't fly, its proboscis can snake out and punch through an Orc's chest cavity in seconds, leaving it little more than a dried husk by the time the Mage Spawn is done with its feeding frenzy.
