Its story
Lifestyle
It freezes the air around it: an ice mask shields it and its fin becomes a blade. Very agile and rare, it may be seen in certain caverns. It evolves from Frigibax into Baxcalibur.
Name origin
It may draw on Spinosaurus, Concavenator (fossils first found in Spain), or other sail-backed animals. Arctibax may combine arctic, back, and axe.
