Colmillos was the term used for canines in Southern Europe whose bodies were inhabited and taken over by the Plaga parasite.
History
The first recorded example of Plaga-infected canines was in Southern Europe when the local Iberian wolves were parasitized by the Plaga. It is believed that this occurred through both direct injection, in the case of the wolves kept as pets in the Salazar family castle, and the independent action of the parasite itself in the case of the wolves surrounding the local village area.
Attributes
The assimilation with the Plaga caused the wolf's fangs to overgrow and sit outside of its mouth. They were very swift while hunting and could tear their prey's throat apart in an instant. The Plaga within the wolf's body took the form of long, thin tentacles. The parasite was able to burst through the skin and use these tentacles to attack. Perhaps due to fact the hosts were already very social animals, controlling them through the Plaga was very stable. The collective aggression of a Colmillos pack was also a noticeable feature. Colmillos were only recorded at night, indicating that the Plaga's vulnerability to light isolated their hunting period to night-time.
Etymology
This B.O.W. was named after the Spanish term for "fangs", referring to their enlarged and deadly teeth.
