"That's, a, kaiyac. Basically they are these huge beasts who will rip any living thing to shreds, thankfully they are easily tricked due to their lack of sight. Before the great vanishing they could only live underground but due to the lack of light they now also roam the surface."~Leo explaining kaiyacs to anec after their encounter with one

***Kaiyacs are a species in operation galactic heroes located on leo's planet the grey egg, they are an ancient species of predators, they are also known as the screaming death due to how dangerous they are, they are famous for their high body counts, their top predator status makes them feared by almost everyone on the grey egg, they where first discovered during a mining expedition but their reach was limited to the underground, however after the great vanishing they were able to roam the surface, not much is known about them because they are hard to study due to their aggressive nature, there is also a creature known as the Kaiyac Queen allthough she is of a different breed***

## Appearance

Because of their natural habitat being dark areas it is very hard to see their full appearance most of the time, they have long alligator like mouths with some areas connected with small patches of skin, this long mouth reaches all the way the the shoulders and is filled with many spiky teeth, they have long spike like tongues wich have smaller tongues coming out of them, from the start of the head to a little farther than the middle there are four sets of purple eyes, they have two big furry ears, they have large muscular torsos with their ribcages and spines on the outside, their spines have spikes on them, they have long limbs with large claws, their back legs resemble those of dogs, they have a bone like tail with a spike at the end, they can change their colors to camouflage and are usually black

## Behavior

Kaiyacs are preditors allthough they don't appear to hunt for food or don't need to consume very much food to survive for long times, they mostly seem to hunt for sport as can be seen by how they like to toy with their prey, they are very aggressive usually killing any prey they spot, they sometimes appear in groups but most of the time hunt alone, kaiyacs are extremely sensitive to light to the point were it psysically hurts them and causes burns, due to this they uses to only appear underground but after the great vanishing they now also roam the surface, if light is cast on them they will desperately attempt to still catch their prey but eventually retreat, they are blind but use their hearing, smell and feeling to locate their prey and surroundings, they will often scream or howl wich is either to communicate with another of their kind or to use echo location, they will also scream very loud to hurt the ears of their prey and attempt to make them scream in pain, their growls resemble those of lions and their screams resemble vacuum machines and bats, while they are primal in nature they are not stupid as their hunting methods often involve deception of the prey, upon catching their prey they will either rip them apart with their claws or bite them while also smacking them into walls, through a combination of bone breaking and cutting they will finish off their prey and usually devouring them in such a way that it mutilates the body beyond recognition

## Abilities and Equipment

* Hyper senses: to compromise for their lack of sight and sensitivity to light all of their other senses like smell, hearing and feeling are far better than any other creature on the grey egg
* 'digging: they are able to go into the ground and swim through it as if it was water, while it looks like they dig into the ground they don't leave tunnels behind and don't appear to be using their claws instead diving head first into the ground
* claws and teeth: using their incredible sharp claws and teeth they can rip even the most armoured creature to pieces
* howling: they are able to make loud sounds to either communicate or use echo location, they can also scream extremely loud in an attempt to hurt their prey's ears and make them scream in pain
* intelligence: while they are not as smart as a nonprimal species they aren't stupid being able to trick their prey and hunt in groups
* general strengths: they are extremely fast and strong as well as being extremely hard to kill
* tongue: using their long tongues they can grab their prey from a distance
* camouflage: they are able to change their colors to fit in with the environment

* Their motion for burrowing into the ground was based on sylvanos's up special from rivals f aether but changed a bit to be more disturbing
