Overview
The Brute X-Rex is a massive carnivore with a unique role in transport logistics. It can be carried by Tusoteuthis, enabling deep-sea deployment and mobile underwater operations. This makes it useful for underwater base assaults or resource retrieval in aquatic biomes.
It does not tame, so its utility is limited to encounters in the wild where its presence impacts combat and strategy.
