CRIMSON REVOLVER 5 - The Racnor WIP

[pnate]

This week: Creature of the Week! (CROW)

The Colosseum was awash with the frenzied energy of the crowd and grew into an explosion of excitement as the immense iron gate blocking the creature's cage was raised. The five warriors in the center of the arena, although armed to the teeth, shook visibly as each resounding footstep rocked the earth. The creature stopped in front of his opponents as if appreciating his next meal and before they could react, charged with an unearthly rage that rumbled the pillars surrounding them.

Your task: Design the Racnor, Devourer of Warriors.
