"which is either sleeping or drowsy" Which are either sleeping or drowsy.

This looks pretty menacing. The background and color scheme emphasizes how menacing it is.

Glad the Driftwood Islands are getting some more interest. I agree with Coolsteph, this is a very menacing organism. Perfect for Halloween.

Ooh, this is a delightful predator for those islands. I will note that there should be a comma after the carnivore diet list and before the detritivore, and as for the support, I believe this lineage mentions chitinous plates, so presumably it would:

Exoskeleton (Chitinous Plates), Exoskeleton (Chitin), or either of the last two but beginning with Segmented Exoskeleton instead. Perhaps someone else could suggest what would be best.

Thanks, the Borinvermee mentions chitin plates specifically, but one other thing. Vermees mention having "contractable muscles" between their segments. How should that be listed, if at all?
