Coo-Hatch

The Coo-Hatch are a race of extraterrestrials that came to Everworld against their will.

Biology
They have large red eyes with blue pupils, two main arms as well as two smaller arms that have more dexterity and are on the sides of their faces. Their mouths are long and tapered. Juvenile Coo-Hatch are small and flighted with needle-like mouths. The juveniles are very fast fliers, covering a space of 20 feet in the length of a human blink.

History
The Coo-Hatch are strange creatures from an alien world who abandoned their gods after their God of the Flame and Goddess of the Ore brought them to Everworld against their will.

A majority of the Coo-Hatch seem to be disillusioned by their deities and Everworld and want to go back to their realm. They often ally themselves with whomever they believe can achieve this goal. The Coo-Hatch then aided the Hetwans in almost taking over Mt. Olympus.

It was revealed the Coo-Hatch had no ambition to conquer Everworld, only wishing to attract the attentions of the Great Gods of Everworld, and demand they send them home lest they sell their new weapons to Ka Anor's spawn.

Later, some of the tribes of the Coo-Hatch team up with the protagonists and develop cannons to use in an assault on the Hetwans (which supposedly takes place after the series end).

Though this plot was not built upon later in the series, Senna's mother was sought out to send them back to their world.

Culture
The Coo-Hatch are also master metal forgers and can create blades sharp enough to cut through any known material; they use this skill to make small, accurate throwing blades and metal tools. In exchange of April's chemistry book, the Coo-Hatch improve Jalil's pocket knife to their quality of metal, giving them a small blade that can cut through anything, the group dubbing it "Excalibur". The Coo-Hatch had no knowledge of guns or explosives prior to the exchange. The Coo-Hatch used the textbook to develop primitive cannons.

Their one true desire is to go back to their forges on their home world, which they cannot do without a gateway like Senna or her mother.
