The Blood Limpet (Salirius Hirudo Proserpina) is a blood-sucking quasi-reptile species native to the swamps of Proserpina.

Description

Appearance

The Blood Limpet's skin is a hard, gray-greenish shell with bright orange stripes. An average specimen is around one meter long (including its tail), with a height of 24 centimeters. They weigh between one and eight kilograms and can move surprisingly fast on their six legs.

Abilities and Lifestyle

Blood Limpets live in swamps and react to body heat. When they sense a potential victim, they rise above the muck and run towards their prey. Although they do not cooperate as a pack or swarm, they often attack in masses of individuals because most potential prey will attract several Blood Limpets at the same time.

It is noted that the Blood Limpets gave the early colonists of Proserpina "endless nightmares".
