Databank

Sandspear

Psalidoprosopon kryptokonton, the scissor-faced hidden spear. A lurking ambush predator with a devastating spring-loaded bite. 1. Strandulate A crustacean-like organism with a segmented body and hard exoskeleton. Lacks the spinal nerve braid seen in this world's fish, but retains a nerve strand. The tail appears smooth and unarmored due to thickening of the intersegmental membrane. The sandspear's forward body is almost all jaw. 2. Ambush predator The sandspear burrows into soft sand and sediment, then waits for prey to pass above its jaws before striking. If its position is exposed, it will flee. 3. High tension jaw Hunting sandspears hold their glass-edged jaws under tension with a biological pulley system. Closure velocity exceeds 20 meters per second, penetrating plasticized armor and shearing through soft tissue. Assessment: be alert for sandspears lurking in the seafloor. Use light to expose and drive away. Caught script hook in allocated memory for command >> generate-databank "Sandspear" >> echo \memory-carve -signature=0xSEABEEF5 >> restore-remarks Remark A. Go to hell Nothing needs to bite this hard. You wouldn't know it from the way they go after Tadpoles, but older specimens are actually pulling their bites. Maybe the hard-biting sandspears all break their jaws and die young? Remark B. Is there a point Is there a point to adding remarks? When Zip got reset NoA wiped her databank too. Remark C. Don't comply in advance Don't comply in advance, old timer. The more work NoA has to do to reset us, the happier I am. [Nahema]
