Ancestor:Descendants:

The ironetwork split from its ancestor, the irontangle and has moved to Barlowe Tundra. It now lives completely underground consuming the iron in the soil. It will grow out its roots so it can absorb what it needs to grow from the soil. However in the tundra this soil can be frozen solid. They can still fight through the soil most of the time however in the winter when it is too cold it can shatter them into pieces. This seems horrible however this is how they reproduce. As long as they have a connection ball they can regrow again.
