Atlan Scavenger

Atlan Scavengers are a non-sapient alien species from a high-gravity world named Atlas.

Biology
The Atlan Scavengers are boneless land predators that feed on baby Sky Grazers, and also spend their entire life on land while waiting for the Sky Grazers to hatch and then eat them. They somewhat resemble a starfish in overall built, but are covered in spikes, most likely used as protection against predators along with large bulbs at the end of each limb, likely to aid in traction on the ground due to Atlan high gravity. To capture their prey, Atlan Scavengers will try to engulf their prey with their mass and exterior, and digest it like a starfish and then extending their stomach out of their mouth and over the digestible parts of their prey. Their nature as generalists allows them to survive asteroid impacts that might wipe out life.
