Resembling impeccably their Earthly co-factionist, Yar, this Proxima B creature features ten rows of sharp teeth and sensory tentacles atop its fore part which might be easily confused with a head. Instead of blood, this creature uses fluoroantimonic acid as a vessel for the nutrients. Quite surprisingly, instead of dissolving in the strongest known acid, its amino additives contain the nutritive proteins while discards the rest through a sweat-like liquid it emits from the glands between the tough flanks of skin.
When attacked or injured, it produces high-pitch squeaking sounds. It moves inaudibly.
