Summary
|
The Rybet were a species of sentient amphibians. Some aspects of their life cycle resembled those of insects.Rybets are a soft-skinned, squat amphibian race with Batrachian[4> (frog-like) morphology. The lips of the mouth had a tendency to be swollen yet flexible. The fingers of the hands and toes of the feet tend to be relatively long, with splayed digits. The hands possess webbing, and vestigial suction cups at the tips. The palms of the hand had a tendency to be clammy due to these structures. The eyes tend to be bulbous, and possess vertical slits in the pupils. The eyes possess a toughness or insensitivity to touch sufficient so that a Rybet would have no issue touching its eyes as it would its own face. The cranial area of the Rybet is hairless, like the rest of the skin covering the body, and so smooth as to appear slimy. Rybet tongues are sharp long thick and shades of purple in color.Rybets enjoyed eating large flying insects, spearing them with their sharp long dexterous tongues which they could launch from their mouths for this very purpose. The tongue also served as a sensory organ. The action of flicking the tongue in and out allowed the Rybet to detect odors or pheromones in the air. When nervous or fearful, Rybets instinctively flicked their tongues rapidly to gather more sensory data of their surroundings.Rybet females laid leathery egg sacks, which young Rybets emerged from the as larva. These larva were born blind, resembling large caterpillars with four dexterous slender arms tipped with hands capable of fine motor skills. After a season of time the larva matured, shed its skin, and metamorphosed into an adult, similar to an insect.Rybet females were typically larger than the males, with an average height between 1.5 and 1.9 meters for the females and 1.2 and 1.5 meters for the males.
