Biology

The Urayachay are adapted to the humid, subterranean, and mineral-rich Rynper Jade Valley/ They are low slung lithe and long wasisted of build. Their should and hip joints are hyper flexible, adapted to fit though even small gaps. This build, being loose and hyoer flexible also leads to a lack of explosive vertical jumping height and is fragile. Their skin is a pale, translucent jade-green color, and has an waxy lipid coating that makes the underground water to bead off the skin.

This skin also holds onto foreign chemical toxins and is shiny, making it hard to hide in areas with light. The hair has been replaced with fine, dark-emerald, silk-like filaments. Lying flat on the head so it does not catch on the jagged stone, it also does not protect from extremes of heat or cold. The eyes are black in color, the pupils able to hyper dilate and with a tapetum lucidum. These adaptions allow them to see even in the half light of the glowing fungi. This eyes are very light sensitive.

A torch or a fire is able to cause very painful neural shock and blind them. The ears are short, pointed and backwards swept. The ears contain specialized internal cartilaginous ridges. These ridges are acoustic dampeners that can filter out the sounds of rushing water. They have flat, upturned noises containing hyper-developed chemoreceptors inside wide nostrils. This are able to find blood even in the thick, stagnant cave air. The teeth are razor sharp, narrow and with an glass-like silicate enamel.

These teeth are adapted to the slick rubbery hides of the underground prey. The teeth are brittle, and will shatter painfully if they bite down on hard things such as bone. The claws are long, with needle points and made of an jade-tinted, mineralized keratin. These claws are adapted to bite into rock, but also catch in fibrous root systems or moss beds, If this happens, their fingers can be trapped or even the claw torn painful out of its nailbed. Feet are long, prehensile and the big toe is opposable and separated.

The toes are more like fingers, and the big toe is more like a thumb then a big toe. The feet have high-friction, suction-like leather pads. These allow them to grip on cave walls and ceilings alike. Inside, they have a digestive and lymphatic system that is adapted to isolate and crystallize inhaled or ingested mineral dust. These are turned into dense nodules and then expelled with the feces. This also leads to a stressed lymphatic system, leading them to sicken easily and be prone to deaths from sicknesses that do not kill other kin'toni.

While diving into sinkholes, the air pressure changes, and so they have the ability to quickly adjust their blood pressure using highly responsive micro-valves. In their internal cavities, they have an thick layer of alkaline, and anaerobic mucus that is for neutralizing the fungal spores native to the region, many that are flesh eating. The bones are adapted to have calcium and raw silicates to harden the bones to survive cave ins. This heavy skeleton also means that moving across fragile surfaces is almost impossible.
