Maoi
this race of amorphous beings was created by the ancient Kathol race, but where discarded by DarkStryder in the wake of the Rift Disaster. DarkStryder found them to be amoral and self-centered, and tried to dispose of them in the depths of the Segmi tunnels. The Maoi survived, however, and thrived in the underground environment. The Maoi also developed an affinity to the Ta-Ree energy, and often used it to hold their prey while digesting it. This put the prey in the line of fire, protecting the Maoi during a struggle. The prey was devoured from the inside out by a Maoi, which forced itself down the prey's throat and used digestive acids to eat the internal organs.
