Pulra

The Pulras are a race native to the volcanic world of Kuras III. They are amorphous beings with a highly flexible body structure. They have innate abilities of camouflage, being able to change their skin coloration to exactly match their surroundings. This allows a Pulra to hide from its prey, springing a trap at the last moment to capture it. Pulras have no sensory organs, and use a natural form of sonar to detect information about their surroundings. They are a social race, able to work together and cooperate in order to get things done. They reproduce by fission, but don't consciously decide to produce offspring. Instead, natural biochemical and environmental changes simply indicate when it is time to reproduce. They have an advanced brain, and can easily grasp the concepts of space travel and interstellar mechanics.
