The "Iron Maiden" was a re-improved variant species of the Regenerador that received further treatment. 1
History
As an off-shoot of the Regenerador, several specimens were reserved and engineered into the "Iron Maiden" species on the island base under the control of the Los Illuminados.
Attributes
Like the Regenerador, the Iron Maiden possesses exemplary metabolism which allows them to regenerate their body after receiving damage. As well as this, they also able to grow an innumerable amount of needles from their whole body which can expand and contract freely. While their attack patterns are similar to the Regenerador, they are able to stretch their arms to great lengths to catch prey, and are able to impale them on their needle-covered body.
Etymology
The Iron Maiden's namesake comes from the 16th century medieval torture device of the same name, particularly due to the needles covering its body.
