Nagaslugs Info Sheet (CLOSED SPECIES)

Nagaslugs Info:

General:
Nagaslugs are amphibious, they are born as small slug like creatures with no limbs. But as they grow older they grow 4 limbs, and a large hood. The hood, when opened, reveals their colorful insides. They can only breathe underwater, but the older they get the longer they can go without a breath, meaning they spend long periods of time outside of the water. They live in swamps or marsh like areas. They secrete a sweet smelling goo, which varies between each individual. They are extremely diverse and come in a wide array of beautiful colors. They are apex predators, and they will hunt prey both underwater and on land.

Biology:
Nagaslugs do not have eyes, instead they have sensory organs atop their head, that sense heat and movement. They do have ear holes, but they are very small. Like snakes, they smell with their long tongues. They have slick, slimy skin that is used to move quickly through the water and help them escape tricky situations. They are invertebrates, so they can squish and squeeze their bodies in many different ways, and fit into very tight spaces despite their immense size. They have large brains and are fairly intelligent, but are still feral. The hood, when closed, creates a tight seal around their neck and gives them a smooth form. When opened, it reveals their internal organs, which are typically very colorful. This does them no harm, and they do not bleed when opening their hood. The goo they secrete is almost always a pleasant smell, and can be secreted at will. 

Reproduction:
Nagaslugs are hermaphrodites, meaning they have the capability to be both sexes. They will use their colorful hood to attract mates, at which point they decide which one will be the "male" and which shall be the "female". Whomever becomes the female, will lay hundreds of eggs underwater. However, the males are expected to take care of the children until they hatch. After hatching, they left to their own.

Behavior:
These creatures do not typically form packs or groups of any kind. While they are not completely on their own, they tend to search for all their own food and take care of themselves. They do form friendships and bonds, however. They are very emotional, and will mourn the loss of a friend or loved one. While they do not mate for life, they will often mate with one partner repeatedly, typically one that they have already been friends with. They are generally mischievous, and they like to cause trouble. Especially because they are apex predators, they will get in the business of many other creatures without care of the consequences. 

Also, each Nagaslug has a unique, sweet smelling scent. When you buy one or make one, you get to choose the scent!
