History:
Another species that has existed in the deep oceans of Argyra IV for millenia, Drygari are the primary natural predator of Plagyra. The species primarily drift through the deep oceans and emit a faint, glowing light from their antenna. Plagyra find this light to be nearly irresistible and approach the Drygari as if transfixed by their antenna. Once within reach, a Drygari will then lurch forward and bite its prey. If the prey is too large to be swallowed in one go, or resists being eaten, the Drygari will wrap around its food, grabbing hold of it with its small, numerous legs, and stab at its prey with its poisonous tail until it stops struggling and can be eaten at the Drygari's leasure.
