Description

Lurking in the shadows of space, especially among debris such as the asteroids of the Diaspora, statiketes are lamprey-like creatures that drain electricity and use it to fire powerful shock blasts at foes. They can attach to passing starships, and they pose a grave danger to crews.

A typical statikete is about 20 feet long. Its body, which has heavy crystalline and metallic elements, weighs about 15 tons.

Although a statikete doesn’t function as a starship, its body and skeleton can be fitted to serve as a starship frame.
