Metaluna Mutant

Metaluna Mutants are an artificially created insectoid species, bred by the inhabitants of Metaluna to perform menial work.

Biology
Metaluna Mutants are plantigrade Human-sized bipeds with bulbous heads. Each hand and foot consists of a pair of curved claws. Their blood is red.

According to the Metalunans, the Mutants are similar in many ways to some of Earth's insects, although much larger and endowed with higher intelligence. Their exact sapience level is not known, although they seem to be at least semi-sapient.

Following the meteoric bombardment that converted the planet Metaluna into a blazing radioactive sun, the Metaluna Mutants are most likely extinct.
