They live binary to another habitual planet and also have a moon that orbits both (via the barycenter), the celestial bodies also orbit a binary dwarf star system (white and red).

They look like carnivora but are more related to fungal life on earth. They grow to 8 to 10 feet due to the planets size being about 0.8 of earth. They have a soft exoskeleton and an inner skeleton. Their nerves are outside their body.

>>810542 (OP)
What evolutionary need calls for the hair, boobs, mouth part(s?), and butt? I ask because only the height and skin system were only covered. Do they serve as buoyancy to stay ground to their planet, sexual dimorphism to their species, or are they just fungal growth because of why they are and it varies?
Are they separated from other species or do they get along with anyone else? Allies? Enemies?
Whatโ€™s there diet like, do they even eat?
Which fungi have they evolved from and would the be deadly if they same into contact and human/beast with circulatory systems.
Are they capable of cordyceps?
Due to their height, can their bodies split over to show their age/maturity.
How fast do they multiply and do they grow in clusters?
What is the purpose of have six limbs?
Since their nerves are on the outside of their body are they more susceptible to pain? Can this species burn?
I noticed their mouth parts contain molars but they have a beak as well. Does this mean they only consume plants, bugs, and nuts? Is food scarce on their planet?

I play into a lot of convergent evolution. they are semi-bipedal and don't always stand on their hind legs. Sexual dimorphism does exist, I only drew the females so far. Like animals in our world, females are dominant and larger. The fungal qualities is mostly the nerve like roots from their exo skeleton that burrows out and act as nerves. They barely get a long with each other which is why they have stayed stagnant in the stone age, they are cannibalistic and hyper aggressive. They don't hunt in packs but hunt do communal hunts, some may have mates that they go hunting with. The mating rituals are even much like spiders where males have to pacify the female so they don't risk death. In terms of cordyceps, much like how we'd get omega alien ebola if we breathed the air, they'd immediately be effected by it (of course the cordyceps would have to adapt to the new life form). They multiply at a pace simularly to elephants, but it's almost always twins. Mitosis would be kind of neat. As for split over, I 'd say- I don't know honestly lol. Their six limbs serve as weapons and to keep them grounded in their low gravity environment. Their 'running' is more like jumping/weird long gallop. Yes they can burn. The molars serve to grind away the exoskeleton most species have. In general, they are hyper aggressive and territorial even to their own. Socialization only began due to males of the species coming together as to not be mogged by the territorial females, so social behaviors are a very new occurrence in their history. They make whistles and growls that sound like chuckles. Hope this answer helps.
