glosgos

Glosgos are a fictional species native to the planet Xylos in the Andromeda galaxy. They are known for their crystalline exoskeletons, which refract light in a dazzling array of colors. These exoskeletons are not only protective but also serve as a means of communication, with intricate patterns and pulsations conveying complex emotions and information.

Physically, glosgos are bipedal, standing approximately 1.5 meters tall. They possess four delicate, multi-jointed limbs, two for locomotion and two for manipulation, each ending in a cluster of fine, prehensile tendrils. Their heads are small and featureless save for two large, multifaceted eyes that can perceive a wide spectrum of light, including ultraviolet and infrared.

Glosgos are a communal species, living in large, interconnected crystal cities that are grown rather than built. Their society is highly structured, with individuals fulfilling specialized roles based on subtle variations in their crystalline composition. They are known for their peaceful nature and their deep connection to their planet's ecosystem, which they carefully manage through a form of bio-luminescent agriculture. Their diet consists primarily of nutrient-rich minerals extracted from Xylos's unique geological formations.
