Piscciss Volann

Piscciss Volanns are an amphibious race from the artificial watery planet Piscciss.

Anatomy
Piscciss Volanns resemble humanoid anglerfish or catfish with gills, antennas on their head for deep sea diving, external teeth, bodies covered in protective scales, and claws on their appendages. On land, they can transform their fish tails into legs for walking.

Volanns have external jaws at a young age, though they become more internal as they get older.

Female Volanns look similar to males except they have more feminine builds, two slits on her chest, narrower eyes, smaller teeth, and larger fins. Certain females can look basically indistinguishable from males.

Ecology
Much like Earth tiger sharks, Piscciss Volanns are opportunistic predators.

The natural predators of Volanns are members of Captain Kork's Species.

Powers and abilities
A Piscciss Volann's primary ability is to breathe underwater and swim with incredible speed and agility with their powerful tails and slimy scales.

Volanns have huge mouths filled with rows of razor-sharp teeth that can chomp through almost anything, even through strong metal. Their lower jaw unhinges to allow them to swallow objects with extreme force in a single bite.

Volanns can use their claw-tipped fins to rip their enemies to shreds.

Much like an Earth angler fish, a Volann's luminescent danglers allow them to see in the darkest of depths. Alternatively, their eyes can sometimes glow.

Volanns are durable enough to withstand a remarkable amount of underwater pressure.

Besides tails, Volanns can use their loincloth wraps was a whip for combat on dry land.

Volanns can communicate with other fish, or at least the kind that can talk back.

Weaknesses
Being creatures of the sea, Piscciss Volanns cannot stay on dry land too long and must keep their gills wet, or else they will dehydrate and die. Fortunately, Volanns can survive outside of water for longer periods of time as they age.

Volanns can be immobilized in ice, such as an Evolved Necrofriggian's ice flames.

Volanns are vulnerable to being thrown around by their tails.

Volanns are vulnerable to electricity.

A Volann's teeth are unable to bite certain materials such as a Petrosapien's skin.

There is a limit to a Volann's durability, as they can get knocked out by a Celestialsapien's lasers.

Volanns are vulnerable to suction forces equivalent to an interdimensional portal.
