Ambull miniature

Ambulls are subterranean alien creatures native to the death world of Luther McIntyre IX.

They can easily survive extremely hot temperatures, which has led to attempts at domestication on several hot desert planets. As a consequence, Ambulls are one of the Imperium's more common alien creatures.

Ambulls have huge barrel chested bodies and an ape-like stance. Their arms reach almost to the ground, while their legs are crooked and short. Their limbs end in iron hard claws used for digging through the soft stone of their homeworld. Ambulls will excavate tunnels in which to live, spending most of their time underground. Due to the intense heat of Luther McIntyre's sun, the Ambull's subterranean lifestyle is shared with many of the death world's inhabitants, including the Ambull's favorite food, the Crawler. Ambulls will pursue prey through soft rock by tunneling at considerable speed.

The Ambull's most characteristic feature are their huge expandable jaws. Their eyes are able to sense heat.
