Jutatinaters

Jutatinaters are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the K'tharr system. They are known for their unique bioluminescent skin, which changes color based on their emotional state and ambient light conditions. This coloration serves as a primary form of communication within their species. Physically, Jutatinaters possess a slender, elongated body structure, with four limbs that end in delicate, prehensile digits. They have large, multifaceted eyes adapted for low-light environments, a characteristic common among Xylos' native fauna due to the planet's twin suns creating extended twilight periods.

The diet of a Jutatinater consists mainly of phosphorescent fungi and small, subterranean invertebrates found on Xylos. They are a communal species, living in interconnected underground burrow systems that are often illuminated by the natural glow of their own bodies and cultivated bioluminescent flora. Their societal structure is based on a collective intelligence, where decisions are made through a complex exchange of luminescent patterns and subtle sonic vibrations. Interactions with other species are rare, as Xylos is located in a relatively isolated sector of the galaxy. Research into Jutatinater culture and biology is ongoing, with much of their intricate communication system still being deciphered by xenolinguists.
