Cephalod-ae are an underwater species from the planet Molluskus.[1]
Appearance[]
Cephalod-ae are orange animalistic aliens. They have a large head with a shell on top, which runs down their back. They have two eyes on opposite sides of their head, and a mouth full of what appears to be white teeth or baleens. They have 9 tentacles, which they can use like arms or legs. At least 4 of these tentacles end in 'clubs', with suckers on the bottom ends, just like a squid has. They have dark orange grooves on the top of their clubs and the top of their shell.
Behavior[]
In a similar vein to the squids and octopi of Earth, the Cephalod-ae have extraordinary powers of communication. They are deeply spiritual due to their ability to parse mana. This makes them one of the most empathetic and sympathetic races in the galaxy.[1]
Powers and Abilities[]
From the many suckers on their tentacles, Cephalod-ae have the ability to "feel" and detect the mana in every living thing they come into contact with.[1]
Cephalod-ae have a powerful grip and incredible crushing abilities with their tentacles.[1]
Cephalod-ae can contort their bodies to fit into small spaces.[1]
Cephalod-ae can change the color of their skin to camouflage.[1]
Cephalod-ae are able to shoot a sticky jet stream of ink that can blind or slow down enemies.[1]
Weaknesses[]
Cephalod-ae have an aversion to strong light.[1]
Cephalod-ae can get their tentacles tangled easily.[1]
Cephalod-ae cannot stay out of water for longer than 20 minutes.[1]
