Grafflax are a sapient species of reptilian quadrupeds from the planet Balkus 9.
Biology[]
Grafflax are amphibious quadrupeds with four-toed feet equipped with claws which inhabit shallow ponds inside caves. They have spikes across their spine plus a single antenna atop their head that has a lobe attached similar to an anglerfish and sharp fangs. While infants possess fern-like plants. Although they exhibit an extreme parental care, Grafflax are rather affectionate when calm.
According to Thusa, they're allegedly believed by many to feed on brains and are just a myth.
Grafflax cannot speak the language of humans and therefore they communicate in their own sorta language that fundamentally sound like animalistic growls.
