Common Namnder

Common Namnders represent a new branch of benthic Segmolixo descendants. However, unlike its extremely long relative, which heavily leaned into their segmented nature, Namnders descend from an ancestor that lost a segment from the average Paralixo. Namnders have greatly enlarged their first 3 pairs of fins, which have now become proper legs in a sense. Namnder "limbs" have a very unique "tripartite" structure, with the fins first folded from a diagonally upward direction to down, and then the fins turn inwards when they hit the ground. These "limbs" are strong enough to support the Namnder in the water, but not on land. Namnders have a primitive osmoregulation system, allowing them to live comfortably in brackish water and even survive in freshwater for some time. Their eyes have also been altered, with a thin membrane covering the open pinhole of their eyes.

Namnders have modified their tentacles into a sort of "lip" for their beak, with their resting position being the position shown. Other than their position, the tentacles of the Common Namnder have stayed relatively conservative, with the distinctive "club" shape of their Segmolixo relatives. The beak of the Common Namnder, on the other hand, is enlarged from its ancestor, allowing the creature to swallow bigger chunks of food.

Namnders congregate in groups of 3 to 5. Namnders are capable of slightly more complex behaviors than most 'Lixos, being able to pinpoint Crestgill tunnels and dig up the creatures.
