| Ground blurb || The Arctic Prowler the Ancient is the apex expression of Frostfall Crater's ecosystem — a creature that has been shaped by polar glacial conditions across centuries of adaptation in 0.68g. It is not simply dangerous. It is what Frostfall Crater would be if the biome could choose to fight.
