Species Log 1 - Leechmin


(Origin)
Leechmin are carnivorous creatures that evolved on planet Titus-03 which is a frozen planet that has gone through a permanent ice age from what researchers could gather, despite the fact that the planet is perfectly placed in the goldilock zone of the solar system.

they were given the name leechmin for the fact that the creature has the body of a man and a mouth of a leech, we don’t know if this is just coincidence or if there is some sort of connection to how it evolved. They are about twice the size of a full grown man and typically feed off of larger animals but if they do encounter a smaller prey like a human, they won’t pass up on the opportunity.

(Behavior)
Leechmin are completely blind, so instead they navigate their way by detecting sound waves and temperature. If a prey makes any noise for example running, a Leechmin would detect them almost instantly and even if the prey hides with no sound at all, if the Leechmin is close enough it will sense the prey’s body heat.

Leechmin do not hunt in packs usually due to their hostile nature, their tactics for attack is mostly just rush the prey or at the very least where they last heard the prey. For most animals this proves to work fine but if an intelligent animal like a human was aware of how they function, they can easily take advantage of their aggressive behavior towards sound simply by throwing something to distract them.

Another thing that lures Leechmin is the smell of blood so any dead body lying around the environment will be a death trap from most people, this also goes for recently killed enemies as well.
