Cave Crawler: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 23:27, 15 January 2016

Template:Infobox:Fauna Flora The Cave Crawler is an aggressive life form that can be located on the habitation ship Aurora, on the Underwater Islands, on the Mountain Island, and in the Dunes.

Appearance

The Cave Crawler is a red-brown colored four-legged crustacean. It has a large, Bioluminescent blue and white membrane covering most of the top of its body. Its segmented legs are a light tan color along with the underside of its body. The Cave Crawler has two mandibles on the front of its body, which are presumably used for feeding.

Behavior

The Cave Crawler is amphibious but cannot swim. Rather, it walks and jumps around underwater. Cave Crawlers move in groups, typically falling from the "ceiling" of the Aurora and are aggressive towards the player, jumping towards and damaging the player when approached. Cave Crawlers are also able to climb onto the walls and ceilings of caves.

Data Bank Entry

Agile, territorial carrion-feeder.

Four legs: Used to walk along the seabed and cling to walls. Equally well adapted for land.
Gas exchange membrane: Absorbs essential gases from the air or water.

This species seeks out corpses in packs, before defending its claim while the corpse is devoured.

Assessment: Inconvenient, particularly at funerals

Trivia

There is a larger relative of the Cave Crawler called the Blood Crawler that lives in the Blood Kelp Caves.
These creatures bear a great resemblance to the spider creatures from the movie Lost in Space: They have disc-like bodies, they're hostile towards the player, and they roam around a derelict terraforming ship; much as the creatures from the movie roam the Proteus, another derelict ship that appears to have items on board for habitizing a new planet.
