Slimpilosa (species)

Slimpilosas are a Polymorph's natural predator. It is found on Viscosia.

Appearance
Slimpilosas look like giant anteaters the size as tall as a Polymorph. Their backs are covered in spikes similar to Argit in the shape of a shell, and they have long elongated snouts. Their legs and lower body are semi-liquid, like a Polymorph's body, its color shifting colors from green to red to blue.

Powers and Abilities
A Slimpilosa's body can take any form of physical blows, due to its slime body. It can jump and bounce to chase after Polymorphs.

They can fire the spikes on its back at its target. The spikes each have a high concentration of toxins in them, which cause the crystallization of cells. While not deadly in multi-celled organisms, it almost cause instant crystallizing of single celled organisms, creating a hardened shell around them.

They have a sharp blade in their mouths, which can pierce through rock.

Behavior
When the Polymorph's home planet was destroyed, they followed Polymorphs to Viscosia.

After causing a Polymorph to crystallize, they pierce the shell with their mouth blade, they use their snouts to suck the Polymorph out. This is how they feed.

Their lower slime extremities help them utilize the lesser gravity. They don't suffer any ill effect in heavier gravities.

Their slime changing color is a camouflage tactic.
