Creature:Orgaat/Webs

Web of the Chopping Axe
The Web of the Chopping Axe are the Orgaat who absorbed the DNA of Hermicee. Formed during their first battles with the Hermicee, these Orgaat carry many traits of the crab)-like creatures in their behavior, including being more arrogant then natural, and having a caste system of sorts. Theit hands have transfomred into crab-like pincers, and their eyes are now mounted on short, flexible stalks.
 * Leader - H'urt
 * Genetic Donor - Hermicee
 * Traits - Strong, Brutal, Underhanded

This web tends to be persistent and somewhat egotistic, and are stronger then most other Orgaat, while preferring to use dirty tactics in battle. Their caste system is rather strange, and although it exists, castes can interact with one another, and there is nothing to suggest that one holds more power then the others. The Orgaat of the Chopping Axe are capable of making fully-functioing weapons from scrap metal, and often wield crude axes and choppers into battle.

Their colors are mainly orange with yellow tints. They also commonly adorn their armor with various trinkets, like snail and clam shells, empty crustean husks, dogtags, scrap metal, and most notably, for some reason, all sorts of keys in various shapes and sizes.

The leader of this Web is H'urt the Lord-Slayer. He notably has an obsession with collecting all sorts of keys, an habit that soon spread to the rest of his Web.

Orgaat of this Web are identified by the suffix 'Hurkol, the Orgaat word for Hermicee.

Web of the Festering Root
During their battles with the Hermicee, the Orgaat came into contact with the Botana, a servant-race of the Hermicee. After much inspection, the Shifters under the Great Shifter known as K'tan, deemed the Botana safe for consumption. Finding out the plant-creatures to be filled with nutrients and vitamins, the Orgaat consumed much of the Botana in their wars against the Hermicee, causing a new Web to form, the Web of the Festering Root. Close allies of the Web of the Shopping Axe, these Orgaat where among the first Webs formed, and have existed since then across all of Orgaat space.
 * Leader - K'tan
 * Genetic Donor - Botana
 * Traits - Steathy, Equal, Underhanded

Botana are among the few "Infection"-type races considered edible, as most Orgaat prefer to not consume them, for risk of the beings controlling them as well, or infecting them. As such, other Orgaat are, understandably, a little leery towards the Festering Root, for fear of corruption in their gene-matrix. However, Botana are perfectly edible, due to only being able to infect a living host from the outside, and not being able to resist the gastro acids found in the bellies of most races, like the Orgaat.

The Web of the Festering Root relies mainly on stealth combat, crawling close to forest floor, before ambushing their prey. They most notably form spores in their lungs, trough wich are able to subdue a prey by having it lose any sense of direction if they inhale said spores. These Orgaat commonly camoflage themselves with dried mosses and lichens, slimy algae, as well as plants that naturally grow on their bodies. They share a close relationship wit the Orgaat of the Chopping Axe.

The leader of this Web is K'tan the Sap-Leecher.

The suffix for this Web is 'Bortil.

Web of the Crushing Hammer
The Web of the Crushing Hammer is the Web formed shortly after the Karogon Rebellions, during which the Orgaat assisted the Waptoria Alliance in putting down the Karogon and their waves of soldiers attempting to storm the galaxy. The Orgaat took the opportunity to absorb the DNA of the brutish race, in hopes of further improving their own genetic structure and durability.
 * Leader - A'jul
 * Genetic Donor - Karogon
 * Traits - Blunt, Honest, Bellicose

The Crushing Hammer, after peace was made, even went as far as integrating a few Karogon into their ranks after the war, accepting them fully, and, for the Karogon that joined, allowing them to feel welcome after suffering such a catastrophic defeat. These Orgaat are more stocky and brawny in build, more so then others of their kin, and their facial crests are larger, and thicker.

This Web is notable for being more bellicose then usual, with a reinforced skull crests, allowing them to use devastating head-butts much like their genetic donors. Known for their bluntness and honesty in conversation, the Crushing Hammer tends to not accompany diplomatic missions, as they tend to speak up too often. The Crushing Hammer is very aggressive in battle, though not as much as the Rending Fin or Chopping Axe. Orgaat here tend to prefer close combat or close ranged combat, preferring to wield shotguns and hammers in battle, or simply use their own hardened crests to headbutt their foes and knock them back.

Their colors are brown in various shades. They rarely repair their armor, leaving bullet holes to adorn it as a reminder of all the battles they have fought in. Some will even go as far as to etch the date and location where these battle-honors were earned next to them.

The leader of this Web is A'jul the Hammer-Tooth.

The Suffix for this Web is 'karrgos.

Web of the Rending Talon
The Web of the Rending Talon were likewise formed after the Karogon Rebellions. This Web is made up of Orgaat who have ingested the tough meat of the Voracha who formed the cannon fodder of the rebelious Karogon. These battles often ended with great loses on both sides, as Orgaat, during that time, had a deep hatred for the Voracha, who likewise despised the Orgaat's attitudes. The Rending talon are the mosr wide-spread of all Orgaat Webs, due to the impressive rate of reproduction of both races, existing all over Mendel and Waptoria space, and even beyond.
 * Leader - J'itr
 * Genetic Donor - Voracha
 * Traits - Savage, Bloodthristy, Anarchic

These Orgaat will gain leathery skin, though and sharp claws, and most notably, an extremely hideous visage. They will often use this to shock their foes, before mobbing up on them and rending them apart with their claws. Orgaat features are more gaunt and skeletal, and their eyes a bright crimson red, and very wide, while their jaws always seem to "grin" at foes. These Orgaat stand more upright, and are generally thinner. These Orgaat are known to mob up on one foe in numbers of 5, concentrating on killing it as brutally as they can, witch each getting one strike off, before another tales over, until the victim is dead.

Their colors are various shades of flesh. It is notable the members of this Web rarely wear any armor, preferring to rush into battle with their skinny bodies nearly bare. Instead, they will often wear ammuntion belts and the like wrapped around their bodies, though even this is mostly for show, as the potent mix of Orgaat and Voracha DNA causes these warriors to gain frightening regenative abilities.

The leader of this Web is J'itr the Muscle-Gutter.

The suffix for this web is 'Vorkeel

Web of the Scything Fin
The Web of the Scything Fin are the Orgaat who have ingested Pirhiaquus meat in their many battles across Zarbanian and Mendel combat zones. The battles often end with each both Orgaat and Pirhiaquus tearing each other apart, though many Orgaat have been found to survive the battles develop many aquatic features. This was extremely common when, on one aquatic world, an Orgaat colony found a primitive conclave of Pirhiaquus that had been abandoned there. Unable to kill them in total, the Orgaat instead settled for hunting them whenever they started to disrupt local ecosystems.
 * Leader - G'har
 * Genetic Donor - Pirhiaquus
 * Traits - Bloodthirsty, Hierarchic, Obedient

The Scything Fin are experts at underwater deployment and combat, using it to disrupt their enemies sea travel and trade, and keep tabs on them, while launching ambushes when least expected from almost anywhere. Due to their nature, Scything Fin Orgaat are amphibious, and can fight anywhere they are required, but are especially extremely fast in water, being able to gain as much speed in it as a propelled torpedo. The changes to their DNA have resulted in fins growing across their backs and tails, and most notably on their arms as blade-like scytes. They also have gill-like structures growing on their necks, which are closed up when they land so they can breath through their lungs. These gills are very sensitive, and Orgaat are very protective of their gills, so to avoid injury. Shifters are noticable by their yellow scars on their bodies, sawteeth-like growths on their snouts, and hammerhead-like growths above their eyes.

The Scything Fin fight with a much greater emphasis on ripping and biting the foe apart as quickly and as brutally as possible, leaving them no time for respite. The whole shoel will commonly swarm their foes at once, striking and biting away at them with wild abandon. Orgaat here are also very famous for their hierarchy within their ranks, the strongest of their web leading others, with each one having a distinct position and knowing their exact place. Once the leading Shifter is killed, the next Shifter will have to fight his brothers for control, or prove his worth in the field.

Their colors is red on their underbellies, and dark blue on the rest of their bodies. A common motif is a yellow star on their snout or in the middle of their underbelly.

The leader of this Web is G'har the Dark Wave.

The suffix for this web is 'Pira'tiil.
