Dune Crawlers are small, techno-organic[Episode 10][FO:MSG] desert insect-like beasts living on the Makuhero Planet.
History
Dune Crawlers inhabit a hot desert region in the Makuhero Planet.[BA!]
Many Dune Crawlers, including Scarox, were possessed by the Brains who invaded the planet with the intent on initiating an attack on Makuhero City. These mutated creatures joined a marauding army, and attacked the city. Though the local Hero population was able to resist the army, the creatures eventually overran the city. During the fight, Scarox and many of his fellow Brain-possessed Dune Crawlers fought Daniel Rocka.[TBW] Eventually, the Heroes discovered how to disable the Brains and remove the creatures from their control. Free of the mind-controlling influence, the Dune Crawlers returned to their homeland.[Episode 10]
Abilities and Traits
Before the Dune Crawlers' transformation, they are ordinarily six-legged, scarab-beetle-like and spider-like beasts that are techno-organic. They are peaceful and friendly. They are around as large as Rocka's normal Brain Attack form. Each Dune Crawler is tough enough to survive in its desert's hot sand.[BA!][TBW]
After being transformed by a Brain, each Dune Crawler became hostile and bipedal, with spikes and clawed feet on its hind legs. The Dune Crawlers could jump very high[Episode 10] and were fast.[TBW] After the Dune Crawlers' Brains got removed, they changed back to their normal forms and behaviors.
Weapons
Each Dune Crawler has a razor-sharp blade-like appendage on each of its four arm legs that can pierce solid rock and armor.
Due to its transformation, each Dune Crawler bore venomous green fangs that could pierce armor and deliver a potent poison. Since its mutation is undone, it no longer has these features.
Trivia
- This is the only Brain-controlled species on the Makuhero Planet to have an official name.
