Species Biography
Occassionally seen flitting about Agrio's rainforests, Macadamite is much smaller than it first appears. It consists of a soft, brittle head, with leaf-limbs and a long body, ending in a pair of leaf-like wings. Due to its size and fragility, Macadamite tend to be very timid, and in order to protect themselves from predators, they search the treetops for rippened nuts, and burrow their way inside. Once the nut has been eaten, it uses the nut's shell for protection, only allowing its wings to peek outside. If a predator approaches, it will clamp its shell shut and lie still, hoping to avoid detection, but if something picks it up while in this state, it will zoom off in whatever direction it is facing, unable to see where it is going.
