The desert tilecorn split from its ancestor, the tilecorn. It has moved to more arid environments. Its larger size and longer legs help it travel long distances. Being cold blooded it benefits from the warmth of the desert climate. They can digest most large flora, even the spiny leaves of the quillball shrub.
Like its ancestor it communicates using its color changing neck frill. They are deaf and must rely upon sights and smell. Its horn is not only used to defend against predators, but males will battle for mates with them. Since they still lay frog-like eggs they must find oasis in the middle of the desert in order to lay their eggs. This can be extremely risky during years of drought when the oases might dry up.
