New Genes 017: Rhino Beetle (Is similar to everyone's rhino but more)

[Biogamer]

The rhino beetle is known as a extremely strong insect and if it reached the size of a dog it would easily carry any average joe and throw them as if they were paper balls. So why not make some genes based of this. The beetle horn would be obtained by either traveling on the popular biome idea of a forest, or by attacking 50 times and spending 30 days in a jungle. Making it like antlers and savanna horns, the effects would be +1 strength. The new body exoskeleton would be obtained by receiving 30 attacks and spending 50 days in a jungle biome. The effects would be +2 defence, +1 strength and +1 scentless. The reason for this is because rhino beetles are extremely strong as well as being well protected. As for scentless, well you can't really smell most bugs.

Hope this was interesting, Sincerely Biogamer.

I know but I thought that the exoskeleton body may've been a little too much if flying effects were to be added.

Don't rhino beetles have wings and can fly? albeit clumsily?

Yup - all beetles (as far as I'm aware) have wings

maybe give it 1-3 flight? so that you can get in trees, especially since this is based off rhino beetles

also maybe the rhino beetle head can get food from the trunk of a tree(1 food per drink), because they drink sap, but maybe if you drank too many times, the tree would lose it's leaves when it has 1 drink left(which is an indicator), stop making sap and nuts/fruit and requires 5 days to regain its sap and bear fruit again.

If you keep drinking, the tree will wilt and die, and slowly(takes 4 days) becomes nothing but a stump
