CharacteristicsEdit
Iron rhinos are anthropomorphic beetle warriors, armored in a sturdy silver carapace like a knight in shining armor. Their tough shells grant them high resistance to many forms of attack and negative status ailments. They have traded in their family members' ability to knock enemies down with their horns to perform an all-or-nothing tackles instead. Despite the protection of their armored carapaces, the iron rhinos are still hampered by their low HP, falling quickly to concentrated attacks.
