Be sure to keep your eyes on any movement under the sand, rather not be a Crea'ka lunch anytime soon. - Merchant
Basic Information
Anatomy
Long elongated body with six legs with a dense exoskeleton.
Biological Traits
Hyper Sensitive: Despite being completely blind, this creature can use its sense of sound to hear vibrations in the ground and the air to know its surroundings and anything moving in them.
Hibernation: During difficult weather conditions, when food is scarce, it can fall into a deep sleep-like state to conserve energy until those weather conditions improve.
Genetics and Reproduction
Lay eggs and wait several weeks for them to hatch.
Growth Rate & Stages
It takes only a few weeks for a Crea'ka larvae to grow its adult phase with its weak and limbless body to grow its multiple appendages and its fleshing asking sheding to be replaced with a strong chiten exoskelating that protects its from physical harm and the harsh desert elements.
Ecology and Habitats
Their primary habitat is desert regions, which allow them to blend in with the environment by shifting through the sand and hiding beneath it.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Carnivorous by nature, it is known to be an infamous ambush predator that hides under the sand and remains perfectly still until it detects vibrations nearby, then pounces on unsuspecting prey.
Biological Cycle
As it grows, it sheds its smaller exoskeleton to develop into a larger, stronger one, eventually reaching its final adult stage.
Behaviour
They are mainly independent of one another, but will often share hunting ground as long as they keep their distance.
Additional Information
Uses, Products & Exploitation
Chitin: The hard shell of the Crea'ka is often used for various things, such as utensils, tools, armor, weapons, and light building material, but is just as strong as metal.
Geographic Origin and Distribution
They can be found all across the Jantani Desert, making their homes deep under the sand and in rock crevices to find shelter.
