Windshed Anchavalio

The Anchavalio is the anglicization word from Eastern Arrernte: Antyamwelyu, mixed with antyame (swag) and akngwelye (dingo, dog, wolf), which means swag dingo.

• Singular: Anchavalio

• Plural: Anchavalios

The Windshed Anchavalio is the wolf-like antechinus that was larger than normal Anchavalio due to its larger size in large tropical rainforests with high oxygen levels. Evolved from the Ashen Anchavalio, except for whitish stripes throughout the body, greenish gray fur to whitish pale underneath, erects spiky hair-like eyelashes that extend to the forehead, and very sharp spiky hair-like protections.

Similar to the thylacine, the Anchavalio's jaw power was a moderate bite (~130 Newtons), not bone-crushing but useful for holding prey and having a very broad gape. The Anchavalio's endurance was designed for lengthy chases and sprints, much like that of the wolf and thylacine. Like wolves, they have long, thin limbs that are ideal for long-range hunting.

Being nocturnal and crepuscular, the Anchavalio had excellent hearing, night vision, and a keen sense of smell for tracking. Anchavalios have extremely stealthy coats that allow them to blend in with grasslands and woodlands thanks to their gray fur. The Anchavalio's tail spikes will protrude until it gets out of it. Although they will protrude when it uses tail slams and shoots tail spikes that their hair root was temporary,

The Windshed Anchavalio wields the wind shears sliced through the body from the light gale, sharper than a sword. Windshed Anchavalio was larger than normal Anchavalio due to its large build and being native to the polar region by the massive oxygen level unbeknownst to tropical rainforests. The Windshed Anchavalio has a "true form" in which it takes a bipedal stance and another where it performs a faint before a tail spin. The latter sends a wind beam that always causes bleeding.

• Thunderstorms ⛈️ - The Windshield Anchavalio is also known to cause destructive storms by sending large amounts of air into the ground. This turbulence is strong enough to uproot trees and wipe out the landscape, which then circulates throughout its body in a unique form of thermoregulation. The occurrence of this causes an unnatural wind to spread from the local region to international areas as a form of terrestrial cyclone.

Strictly carnivorous, the three species of Anchavalio consumed small to medium-sized mammals, including wallabies, possums, wombats, marmots, capybaras, lizards, snakes, salamanders, frogs, birds, and occasionally scavengers. The populations of smaller animals and herbivores were managed by the three species of Anchavalio.

Prior to the arrival of placentals and monotremes in Everrealm, the three Anchavalio species played an apex predator role in the ecology. Until early European settlers introduced dogs, cats, wolves, crocodiles, and caecilians, their primary rivals in Everrealm and Sawintir were essentially nonexistent. Native or introduced predators also threaten Anchavalio populations with foxes, wolves, tigers, cougars, lynxes, baboons, sea lions, dolphins and cats predating upon Anchavalio pups. Indeed all species of Anchavalios are habitat destruction and competing with both native, introduced, or invasive species.

However, it was solved in mystery, causing the local monsters to become terrified and flee directly towards the area to nearby countries by a howling of the full moon by the Windshed Anchavalio.

It can also use this ability to form wind armor on itself during combat. By ejecting spike furs and a breath mist of fog, it is capable of inflating to a degree and producing a special gas that circulates throughout its body in a unique form of thermoregulation. It causes both sweat glands and special sacs on its throat to release the wind.

Reproduction

The timing of the breeding season differs between species and also with the location of populations. The breeding season is from July to September, moving to the south in late January through March. The Anchavalios are pregnant for about 63 days and usually birth four to six pups. Like their ancestors, they do not have a complete pouch as in other marsupials but simply a flap of skin covering the teats. Both older males and older females die off because of an increase in free corticosteroids in the blood from birth. Much like antechinuses, torpor is a periodic lowering of body temperature and metabolic rate to reduce energy consumption in their own dens.

Breeding season:

• Likely spring to autumn (July–September).

Gestation:

• Very short (~50–56 days, unlike other marsupials).

Litter size:

• Up to 3 young, developing in the pouch for about 9 months.

Pouch life:

• After leaving the pouch, the young stayed in the den or followed the mother.

Parental care:

• Female provided all care.

• Reached sexual maturity at ~8 years.

Lifespan:

• Around 5–40 years in the wild; up to 50 in captivity.

The Windshed Anchavalio was more aggressive and led in very small groups of 3 to 5. Some individuals are always solidarity and nomadic predators.

Under a government reward system funded by the UN, humans targeted the three species of Anchavalio in order to exterminate these malevolent marsupials; almost 2,000 of them were officially destroyed, and many more were not. Due to shooting, trapping, habitat degradation, and disease, they were all endangered in both Earth (as imported species, despite being introduced long ago) and Everrealm (their homeworld).

The Windshed Anchavalio was native to north regions of Sawintir. Recorded in Greece in ancient times because this animal was invasive from the past in the same time as ancient.

The Anchavalios are easily favorite tamable animals on Sawintir and Earth; they are extremely good battle creatures, especially in packs via tranquilizing. The Windshed Anchavalio can be tamed by giving them raw fish meat.
