Buaya (CROCODILE)

Ornamentation using resources from animals such as boar, carabao and humans is fairly common when you're a headhunter in the mountains. The number of battles won, enemies defeated and heads collected is marked on your skin as "Batoks" where you can proudly showcase them to the tribe or cause fear to your opponent as if you're foreshadowing his death.

Some warriors choose to travel the far reaches of their home to test what they're capable of, most do not return as the paths of the unknown is not an ideal place for a lone wanderer to explore. Creeping with other tribes who fights for territory, a well-inked traveler is an easy trophy to hoard of blood-thirsty warriors, a valuable one. The forest is also believed to house spirits of good and bad, mischievous and solemn and Creatures that can be mistaken for wild animals at first glance. There's no way a man could reach great distances with these hurdles. But if they do, they return stronger, wiser and seasoned.

A Buaya (crocodile) is considered sacred in many far lands, it avoids senseless battles and meticulously selects its competition. Legend says that to defeat and wear one as your own armor, you must've got something special in you.
