MORELLIANS

PHYSIOLOGY
Marsupaloid; Four legs/two arms. The Morellian skull is defined by two long plates reaching from the upper lip and shields the neck. Their thick, wrinkled skin varies in tone from blue-white to a yellowish-pink. Their chemical makeup makes them susceptible to the intoxicating effects of salted wheat crackers.

CULTURE
Ritual scarification: For each of the 54 stages in a Morellian's life, another element is carved onto the Morellian's side plates. Very few reach the 38th stage.
