Arburian Pelarotas (also called Tortugans) are a species from the once peaceful planet Arburia. The more primitive Vulpinic Pelarota live on Vulpin.

Appearance[]

Arburian Pelarotas are hulking, broad-shouldered aliens covered in natural, yellow armored-shell plating on their back, shoulders, thighs/hips, and forearms. They are mostly white with black on their upper half and have four claws on both of their hands for fingers, having a color scheme and claws similar to that of a panda. Arburian Pelarotas are covered in fur across the thickest parts of their body, while every other part except for their elbows and knees is short fur.

When Arburian Pelarotas turns into a sphere, they roll up into a ball, with their backplates and the plates on his arms covering them. their sphere form has semi-circular stripes across their body, with black lines around the circular plates, and their side plates are the plates on their arms.

Adults have the same appearance as children, only with sharper claws and small lines near their fingers.

Female Arburian Pelarotas appear to have a slimmer torso and pelvis, their armor is also smaller and they have feminine lips.

There are two species of Arburian Pelarota. The more primitive kind lives on Vulpin.

Powers and Abilities[]

Arburian Pelarotas can curl into a ball, encasing themselves in their plating. In general, the Arburian Pelarotas mostly used this maneuver for defense, like an armadillo.

When rolled up, Arburian Pelarotas become like a motorized wheel that can move at great speed (because of chemicals in their exo-plates that reduce friction) and can increase their rotational momentum to slam into and/or run over their enemies. Arburian Pelarotas are able to maneuver around their surroundings in ball form thanks to the short fur on their bodies, registering shifts in air and motion around them. Between that and their excellent hearing, Arburian Pelarotas receive something akin to echolocation - giving them "eyeless" vision.

Arburian Pelarotas can ricochet and bounce off surfaces like a pinball in sphere form, suffering little-to-no loss in momentum.Arburian Pelarotas can also house people and fairly large objects within their spheroid form and provide them the same level of protection that they have.

From inside their shells, Arburian Pelarotas can withstand twice the heat of reentry into the Earth's atmosphere. Similarly, their shells are resistant to acids and lava, as well as cold temperatures of places such as Mikd'lty, and can withstand the plasma generated by members of Ball Weevil's species.

An Arburian Pelarota's shell can deflect lasers, even when not in sphere form. Because of this, they are practically nigh-invulnerable when curled into a ball.

Arburian Pelarotas possess enhanced strength, being able to fight on par with enemies about their size. They can also break free from traps made of Lepidopterran slime.

Despite their top-heavy bodies, Arburian Pelarotas have enhanced reflexes, dexterity, and balance, allowing them to quickly change in and out of ball form to suit their immediate needs.

Arburian Pelarotas are capable of withstanding the vacuum of space, but they still need to breathe. Without an oxygen supply, Arburian Pelarotas are limited to holding their breath.

Arburian Pelarotas can be empowered by electricity, such as those generated by a Gimlinopithecus. This way, they can gain much more power and momentum when in sphere form.

Weaknesses[]

An Arburian Pelarota's bipedal form is top-heavy, making them very unbalanced and clumsy. This is because Arburian Pelarotas are made to spin, not walk. However, they can still manage to use their sphere form to enhance his agility.

Despite their shells being resistant to extreme heat while reentering Earth's atmosphere, Arburian Pelarotas can still suffer a mild amount of pain from the force of impact.

An Arburian Pelarota's large body makes it hard for them to move in small spaces, such as in vehicles like the Proto-TRUK.

Arburian Pelarotas can be trapped by strong adhesives, such as those used by the Stalker. Similarly, they can be held in place by beings with as much strength as a Chimera Sui Generis.

Unlike their shells, an Arburian Pelarota's skin is not heat resistant.

Arburian Pelarotas can be incapacitated by electricity, such as that generated by a Transylian.

In their uncurled form, Arburian Pelarotas can be controlled by a Vladat via their Corrupturas.

Notable Arburian Pelarotas[]

Etymology[]

The name Arburian Pelarota is based on Arburia (the Arburian Pelarota home planet), pelota (Spanish for "ball") and rota (a play on "rotation").

Trivia[]

  • Arburian Pelarotas are believed to be extinct from the universe, but it wouldn't surprise Eugene Son if there are a few alive somewhere.
    • Derrick J. Wyatt believed that there are supposedly a few survivors scattered across the galaxy.
