My Mythological Creature

MAGTRUS

Magtrus is the mythological creature that I create, now Im going to talk about he:

He is a very big creature about 540cm, he is all green except his horns that are kind of yellow, he has very little eyes and they are red like the hell that is the place were this creature comes from. Now lets talk about his personality, he is very innofesive, but if you said to him something that he don´t like he starts to destroy everything. In conclusion he is a good guy. Felix
