Look what I found today. This is a Caddis fly larvae. They spin silk into protective shells that incorporate pebbles, sand, twigs, or whatever is lying around their streams or ponds. French artist Hubert Duprat decided to see what they would do with some gold and precious stones. You can find more info, pictures and a video over here.
I love the aesthetic. I'll have to give these guys some stats.
Maybe this is why dragons need a hoard. So that they can create a cocoon that allows them to metamorphose into the next age category.
