==Supineness== A reptilian creature about the size of a small dog with four long, loosely hanging legs and a short stubby tail that crawls around very slowly among trees feeding on various insects with the one quick part of its body that it has, it's quickly flicking sticky tounge. The Supineness has a head similar in shape to that of an ant-eater, and is covered in small green or brown scales that camouflage it well among it's native jungle foliage. It has amazing regenerative powers as long as it is well fed, but is virtually without any form of physical defense against predators. Interestingly, most natural jungle predators capable of piercing the somewhat tough scales have evolved to learn it is best to simply chomp off one of its legs when hungry, and let the creature regenerate the lost limb, only to return and feed on it again once it has grown back. The Supineness' diet of poisonous and venomous insects other insectivores wouldn't touch render it virtually immune to all forms of poison. Even poisons of a magical and/or divine nature have often had a vastly diminished or negligible effect on the creature. Supineness blood is usually quite toxic, but blood extracted directly from the creatures liver with great care can be used to purify food and water with just a single drop. A single drop, with sufficient knowledge, can also be used to create a potion that grants the effect of cure poison on the imbiber. The potions creator must have extensive knowledge of the anatomy of the creature to be able to extract the blood from the proper organ, as a mistake will instead have a mildly toxic effect, as well as possibly killing the creature if the liver is too damaged in the process of extraction. Enough blood can be extracted to attempt to create one potion per day without permanently harming the creature, and up to three potions can be created by sacrificing the liver of the beast completely, but the creature will die within minutes.
