Lifespan and Development

These strange creatures lives for 3 arcs. Their lifespan is split into three sections, lasting approximately an arc each. The first arc sees them exploring the ocean and seafloor, moving around the island and seeking a place to make their home. During this arc, they are small yellow bullet-shaped creatures (see image above). It is not clear how they make that decision, thus far it seems completely random. The second arc is one where they reproduce. They do not mate, they are able to reproduce alone, both laying and then fertilizing their own eggs, however, in order to do so they 'open up', revealing that they are actually a tiny midsection with literally hundreds of fronds growing from this. In their third arc, they stop reproducing and slowly wither until their fronds are but distant memories and they are tiny solid husks which Scalvoris islanders often use in their jewelry as they glimmer and shine beautifully and reflect in every color of the rainbow.

Diet

Algae and sea moss found on the ocean floor.

Temperament

Isolationist, but cute.

Uses

No abilities but, in the right hands, these things are a delicacy. They can only be eaten if caught during the second arc of their life and must be cooked in a specific way in order to ensure that they are not tough and stringy. This involves careful preparation and full removal of their alimentary canal which runs through each of the tiny "fronds" which their body is made up of. Missing just one makes it taste bad.
