Description =

A Huragok.

Covenant engineers are almost always Huragok. The Huragok are long, eel-like creatures with a cluster of large air sacks that cover the center third of their body. They have six lithe, feathery tentacles spread across their body. However, these appendages were created to interface with technology, and as such, 3 or more are required to equal an average race’s arm strength. Their air bladders are able to inflate, allowing them to fly for an indefinite amount of time. Their heads have three eyes on either side of their snake-like head. Huragok skin takes various vibrant shades of pink, blue, and purple, and has a smooth, slightly slimy texture. Its tentacles are able to directly interface with technology as advanced as artificial intelligence, and their brains are able to process this information faster than a supercomputer. Huragok are not born, but “constructed.” When necessary, nearby Huragoks will scavenge the surrounding areas for materials to build another Huragok compound by compound. With this being said, they are organic creatures.
