eyeless, beetlelike creatures that hide in piles of treasure. Thanks to its size and silver or golden shell it looks much like a coin when dormant. They live in a symbiotic relationship with a dragon keeping the wyrm's scales clean of troublesome vermin. They burrow through flesh but a dragons scales protect it from this invasion.
