Squitico

15

- Squitico Small - Aquatic Squitico are coleoid cephalopod-like creatures with a very-vaguely humanoid shape, resembling a mix between a diamond squid, a vampire squid, an octopus squid, and curled octopus, with several divergences of the traditional build of such creatures, apparently an adaptation for gliding and walking. The most notable one is presenting its mouth outside the arm ring, being closer to the eyes forming an apparent head. Meanwhile, such tentacle ring clings to the lower part of the head by an elongation vaguely resembling a body with fourteen protrusions, eight of which seem support for floating orbs, and six clubbed arms (with sheathed hooks not unlike those observed in greater hooked squids) webbed together in a faux buccal membrane: a smaller frontal arm pair used as frontal legs and two long tentacle pairs used as back legs, both used commonly for terrestrial and aquatic movement. Its final most notable difference is Squitico's very reduced real mantle, having intricate hyper-developed fin lobes acting as a cuttlefish mantle-shaped structure for gliding and communication. Additionally, some hair-like growths decorate its head and fin lobes.
