Red Clayform

Red Clayforms, also known as Claymen, are a species of clay lifeforms that inhabit the planet Kalsas.

Description

Biology

While Clayforms can take on humanoid form and walk on two feet, their bodies can actually stretch and take on any shape. For example, while up in the air, they can stretch themselves into a pancake-like form to catch more air and eventually safely land on the ground. They can use mimicry to imitate the form of other species and even somewhat replicate their physiology and tactile sensations. For example, when mimicking a Pepeshi, they are able to feel the pleasant and intimate sensation of touching the "fluff ball" on their head. The Clayforms' greatest weakness is that they dissolve upon contact with water.^[1][2]

Culture

The Clayforms on Kalsas are ruled by a monarchy under a Clay King and Clay Queen. Audiences are held in the Royal Council Chamber of the Claymen. According to the King, on Kalsas, anyone can speak their mind. Wet weather rainy season is considered a hazard and calamity among the Claymen as they dissolve upon contact with water. The Interastral Peace Corporation introduced a variety of technologies to the Clayforms such as rain shelters and the Disposable Kinetic Cannon. Clayforms rely on IPC services for interstellar travel, and it costs them a significant amount of credits just to clean the decks.^[1][2]

History

Sometime in the past, a rare-earth management consultant from the IPC, along with a Synesthesia Interpreter, was invited to speak on the stage at the Royal Council Chamber of the Claymen. Their true goal was to obtain precious minerals from the Claymen and have them join the IPC. The Synesthesia Interpreter assured the Claymen that they would defend Kalsas from the calamity that was the wet season.

Bored and frustrated, the consultant mocked the Claymen language and claimed that the planet didn't have a shred of hope, because the Claymen wouldn't make it past the wet season. The Synesthesia Interpreter smoothed things over by interpreting that there was so much hope for Kalsas and by joining the IPC, there would be no communication barriers. Afterward, the IPC constructed rain shelters on the planet. As a result, disappearances during rainfall became few and far between.^[1][2]

At some point, the IPC offered Kalsas silicon-based cyber-enhancements that would modify their bodies free of charge, making them no longer vulnerable to water and greatly boosting their cognitive capacities. However, these enhancements took away their shape-shifting abilities and durability.^[3]
