Rosyfins are a sapient alien species. They're one of several species which have visited Earth in the 21st century as passengers in the Chirpsithra's interstellar liners.
Biology[]
Rosyfins are flattened slug-like creatures which need globular environmental tanks to survive on Earth. Inside their tanks, they remain immersed in murky fluids. They are named for a large, triangular rose-colored dorsal fin which runs from nose to tail.
Rosyfins consume glowing green lumps of something that Rick Schumann has nicknamed "green kryptonite".
