Unsen

An enigmatic species that exists all around U4-TThey are mysterious beings with ivory heads and titanium claws. They originated from Protounsen, who were drawn into existence before all life on Earth by Theos with his Pen of Life.

Appearance
They are often a reptilian species with strange ivory heads, titanium claws, often having a skinnier frame where their ribcages are visible. Some are seen with a four leg structure but others are more worm like or only have a pair of legs on the back.

Various mutations can have bizarre outcomes, including growing multiple heads and growing into a bipedal shape to name a few.

They come in a variety of colors, often matching their name based on the color convention. This also holds true for their eggs, which come in an assortment of strange patterns.

Traits
Some Unsen, despite their appearances, can actually be intelligent. Whenever they lay eggs, there's a percent chance the babies are too mutated to survive, so the intelligent Unsen lead the group

Information
Birth-

    Unsen are asexual beings, choosing when and where they lay their eggs. They lay 2-5 eggs in corpses when their ready, so the chicks can stay warm and eat the body when hatched. The adults coat the corpse in a protective layer of slime so it stays fresh long enough for the chicks to hatch. The slime has the offending smell of a rotting corpse, mixed with eye-stinging gases so predators stay far away. Unsen develop like bird chicks.

Childhood-

    When they hatch, Unsen chicks immediately begin hunting for food, which starts with eating the runt of the litter. When there's no more food near the corpse, or when the corpse starts rotting, the chicks begin the trek into their new world. They're all born the colours of the area they hatched in, as they are defenseless. Unsen chicks usually eat berries, small animals, fallen bird chicks, and bugs. Their teeth grow as they mature, similar to tree trunks, and one ring is 6 months of the Unsen's life.

Adulthood-

    When chicks can defend themselves, they begin to shed their skin and change to their adult colour. The temperature of the area slightly affects their colour, but otherwise it is completely random. Larger Unsen seek out colder, large areas, while smaller Unsen seek out warmer, smaller areas. Larger Unsen are usually carnivores, and smaller Unsen are usually omnivores or herbivores. They can live up to 150 years at their largest size, but only 2-3 years at their smallest.

Taming-

    Adult Unsen can be tamed with difficulty, and takes years to truly gain its trust. It's much easier to take a corpse with eggs and raise the chicks, as the adults don't protect them. Domestication hasn't been attempted, due to the unpleasantness of the slime and how genetics don't seem to matter with Unsen.

Body-

All Unsen have at least one pair of limbs with titanium claws, and all have polished ivory heads. They have leathery skin and red blood.

Eggs-

Although Unsen limb count and body shape is random, you can read both of those from the egg. Larger eggs are larger Unsen, while smaller eggs are smaller Unsen. Longer eggs are longer Unsen, while round eggs are shorter Unsen. The number of stripes or splotches on the egg shows how many limbs it will have.

For names, they often have a color convention followed by Ink, such as


 * 1) DarkGrey-Blue Ink
 * 2) YellowGreen Ink
 * 3) BrightPink Ink
 * 4) PaleRed Ink
 * 5) Red Ink
 * 6) Winter Ink

 * 9) DryRose Ink
 * 10) Legendary Grey Ink
 * 11) BronzeYellow Ink

And so on and so forth.
