13 Headed Hydra

Description
This mod makes the Hydra start with 9 heads, just like the Greek myth, and grows up to 13 heads.

Like my previous mod, 7 Headed Hydra, I've removed the bored animation, I've replaced the flail animation with the walk animation, and the death animation has a gruesome texture with no heads.

Unlucky for its victims...
I made a 7 headed version so it's only logical that I make a 13 headed version to balance out the luck.

I was replying to Max who said Hydras always looks like a brachiosaurus. Yes, remove the flippers and Scylla from the game looks much closer to what the Hydra should look like and Scylla should look like a mermaid with six dog heads growing out of her waist. Weird stuff. lol

I know that it originally does not have any legs, so in the first comment I called it "a serpent". I think in the original mythology, Hydra looks like Scylla LOL

According to the original myth, the hydra looked like neither a sauropod nor dragon, it looked like a multi-headed (usually 9-headed) snake. Later artistic depictions gave it sometimes legs and/or wings; it has 2 legs in Disney’s Hercules, it has 4 legs in the D&D and AoM, it has 2 legs and 2 wings in Pollaiuolo's Hercules and the Hydra and it has 4 legs and 2 wings in a portrait of Henri IV as Hercules.
Personally, I’m a purist when it comes to Greek mythology, so the best, most accurate depictions of the Hydra are from Greek black-figure pottery [en.wikipedia.org].

Except the hydra has always been depicted closer to a brachiosaurus, not a Dragon @Fawfaw
