Some fun with concept art. If I’m gonna have alien species characters, I might as well put some thought into their biology.

The babies are basically only capable of putting things in their mouth. As the tentacles grow they move further down the body, sprouting from the head, moving to the torso and then sinking back into the skin once that limb starts getting weaker. Once they reach their equivalent “teen years”, they develop limb hardening functions but don’t have much control over it.

They also have a smaller secondary brain that only awakens if the primary brain is asleep and the body is in need of food, using the bathroom, is in danger or needs to burn excess energy. This secondary brain can only really be as smart as a common house pet, so they tend to domesticate their young’s secondary brain in the event that their primary brain is not active.
