Sabotenders
Sabotenders.jpg
Sabotenders, animate and conscious cacti native to the Altepa Desert, are well-known in adventurer circles for their merciless and fierce nature, especially when attacked. Their infamous ability, "1000 Needles," fires one-thousand of their incredible sharp needles, hitting everything within range; this ability has caused many a desert traveler no small amount of pain.

Even though they can drop a few different items, they are not known for their drops. The one notable drop is the valuable Cactus Stems. When grown properly, these stems can yield lucrative results.
