Basic Information

Anatomy

Like salamanders, but with fins running from the head to the tale, and down the arms. The arms are also longer, with webbed, dexterious hands. They have gills, which resemble those of the Axolotls. Their eyes are slightly larger than normal. Their feet are long, and resemble flippers. Their heads are narrower than their land-dewlling relitives. They also have long, sharp claws for digging and carving.

Genetics and Reproduction

The male leaves a cloud of his seed floating in the ocean (note:the stuff is very cold). A female then follows the lowered-temp, and absorbs the cloud. She then lays many eggs. While many eggs are laid, only a few with reach maturity, as the children are left mostly unattended, and many die young.

Growth Rate & Stages

They begin as tadpoles, hatched out of many eggs. When they reach sexual maturity, their foreheads turn blue, a colour otherwise absent from their comourful skins.

Ecology and Habitats

Dark, warm water.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Omnivours. They eat undersea plantlife, and also fish. They hunt the fish with primitive spears made from great spikes of rock.

Additional Information

Social Structure

Villiges are fairly large, spanning whole cliffsides. They are led by a counsel of elders, but are free to choose their jobs as they wish when they reach sexual maturity. These include Builder, Hunter, and Farmer. The children are mostly left to their own divices.

Average Intelligence

They can make basic tools out of stone, using their clawed nails to carve. They can also hollow out caves to live in, often near coral reefs.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

They have basic telepathic abilites, this is how they communicate. They are un-able to commune vocally. Good dark-vision, good temprture sensing, bad touch, no hearing, no smelling, no talking.
