Appearance
The Cantapodi displays a colorful skin pattern, with the default colors being tan, pink, dark brown, and green. The Cantapodi has two toes on each foot, resembling a chameleon, and is intricately decorated with numerous spikes and prickly pear flower buds. It has the natural stance of a kangaroo and other creatures with long tails, using it when walking and leaning on it when idle. It also has a long, spiky tail with three flowers at the tip, emulating a giant long cacti. It appears shorter than it is due to the spiral curvature of its spine-covered tail. Adult Cantapodi present three horns on the frontal region of their head.
**Males**: Males have a petal-like longer collar mane.

Abilities
Behavior
- Similar to snakes, Cantapodi will bury their eggs to keep them safe from predators and to shield them from the scorching sun. When they hatch, they band together and form a temporary pack as a defense before eventually branching off as they mature.
- While the Cantapodi are blind, they can map out their surroundings using a “sixth sense” not unlike that of a modern platypus. Their sense of smell and adept hearing also helps make up for the lack of sight.
Trivia
- Designed by kazooduder on the Creatures of Sonaria Discord. Cantapodi was based on chameleons and cacti design-wise, while also based on a kangaroo movement-wise, similar to Diesura as it hops and leans back on its tail in idle or while sitting.
- Modeled, rigged, and animated by Erythia.
- Redesign concept by Austroraptors.
- Redesign modeled by ScratchyPaws and rigged by Mezzioli.
- Redesign animated by kazooduder.
- The Cantapodi has green blood. Due to this, when killed in the Legacy version of the game, the Cantapodi drops a green carcass. This is an actual color in some Earth creatures: both from those that use chlorocruorin, a green oxygen carrier that replaces hemoglobin in some invertebrates' blood and in some vertebrates (like some green-blooded lizards) that have adapted to carry lethal amounts of biliverdin in their blood, which is a toxic byproduct of heme catabolism whose only good side is that it has antimutagenic properties. It is possibly green just because of the inspiration of this creature, meaning the blood could be a sap, which is more fitting for the Cantapodi.
