===Origin===
===Origin===
Magcargo is based on a {{wp|snail}}, likely the ''{{wp|Victaphanta atramentaria}}'' or the ''Platymma tweediei'', with a body of {{wp|lava}} and a shell of {{wp|rock}}. It may also be based on the {{wp|Cherufe}}, mythical evil creatures of rock and {{wp|magma}} that inhabit the magma pools found deep within Chilean volcanoes. In legends, they are the main sources of earthquakes in Chile.
