Velzex

Velzex are a species of spider-like beings, approximately the size of a cat, although alphas can be much bigger. They have horns, opposable thumbs, and are covered in odd ridges and divots. They are also quite bulbous in appearance. They typically focus on supporting the alpha, with the standard Velzex only engaging in combat if threatened or angered. They are also known to rely on larger creatures to protect themselves, leading predators towards them. They tend to infest abandoned urban sites, such as the Thorndon Spaceport. Despite their armored appearance, they are very easy to kill and quite weak. The alphas however, can easily be deadly due to their size.
