Burries

Burries are small burrowing creatures covered in semi-retractable quills. They are typically as harmless as a cactus, meaning, if you don’t touch them, they won’t poke you.

These creatures live in the dessert in small tunnels that they burrow themselves. They are actually the fastest digging creature on the planet They can typically dig as fast as the average human can walk.

These creatures are becoming more and more scarce as so much of their bodies are useful in Alchemical formulas. Everything from their flesh to organs, blood, quills and even eyes can be used in a multitude of formulas.

There are a few farms that raise them exactly for this purpose. They tend to be very expensive to buy though, as they escape easily by burrowing into the ground. Farms typically dig up a large patch of land, lay down metal plating in the hole, and refill it with dirt. This is a very expensive process.
