Defensive Bendig

Defensive Bendig is one of Bendig's animal abilities.

Appearance
The appearance of Defensive Bendig is quite similar to that of Bendig's normal form, except for the main color, which is a reddish-orange instead of yellow. He has two short ears and a tall standing quill replacing his "ears".

Instead of Bendig normal scarf, Defensive Bendig has a quilled bandana and quills running from his head to his back. He has two straps going from his bandana to under his arms.

Spines/Quills on back
Defensive Bendig has a set of quills on his back. He uses them to defend himself. He also uses them as needles to sew, where he uses silk from his Insect Bendig form as thread.

Ability to shoot quills

Defensive Bendig has the ability to shoot the quills from his back like rockets. Sometimes it's intentional, but he sometimes uses it involuntarily when startled or suddenly attacked.

Tough skin

Defensive Bendig has extremely tough skin. He can protect himself from flying projectiles, such as arrows. It is really hard for him to get cut or bruised and he can get hit by a large object without any epidermal injuries.
