Space Leeches

Name of Race/Monster: space leeches

Body Type: "arachnoid"

Average Height: the young are usually 3" long but can reach meter long lengths in adult form.

Number of Limbs: 8

Intelligence: parasitic

Diet: magic stuff

Lifespan: few months

Appearance: face spiders from aliens but with tentacles instead of spider legs, and a sack at the rear

Physiology: all they consume is the energy of the magic rocks. Their mouth is in the underbelly and would use their tentacles to grasp around and chip rocks off with the sharp saw like edges at the tip of their tentacles. They usually float around, due to low gravity and or the magic digestion causes this reaction, also rest on ceiling areas.

Their mouth is circular with two rings of saw like teeth to ground up the mineral.

Origins: unknown/ up for debate but known to be in low gravitational locations thus the whole "floating" ability.

Sexes/Reproduction: unisex after consuming sufficient amount of magic rock they create egg sacks of their larva

Habitat/Rarity: space, secondary source of magic mineral stuff

Other Notable facts: what made them predatorial to sentient or actually the highly magical beings is their attraction to magical energy. This can be dangerous to beings who emit high waves of M-energy, for once the leech attaches itself to a being it will tear into the flesh with its saw like teeth and drain the blood stream with its vacuum strength sucking.
