Smasher

The Smasher also called the Piquancy Biter is an orangeish brown furred relative to the common Biter of Planet 4690C. It gets its nickname for its keen sense of smell and its fur coloration, which looks similar to sharp cheddar cheese.

Appearance
The Smasher is a large bear-like creature that had a raccoon-like appearance. Unlike its relative the Biter, the Smasher has a shaggy orange colored fur coat and short tail.

Smasher have two known, confirmed relatives on Planet 4690C, the Crusher and the Biter, as well as two theoretical relatives, the Stalker and the Prowler.

Behavior
Even though they are relatives to Biters, they share more behavioral traits with bears rather than dogs, though they are still extremely loyal to their alpha and typically live in packs. Should an adult be taken using a bear net they will treat the player as their new alpha and protect them.

If a player takes a cub any nearby adults will pursue the player for a short time. After the player gets away nearby Smashers will let out a sad moaning for their lost young.

If Players approach a wild Smasher they will make a growling noise and warn the player to back away, should they continue forward the Smasher will attempt to charge and bite at the player and, unlike Biters, they will pursue the player short distance.
