Glugwigs live in colonies spread all over there planet known as "Glugwig IV". These creatures were first discovered by a team of Space Cadets led by Gold Cadet Blake. Unfortunately, the entire exploration squad was lost; however their sacrifice earned us knowledge of these dangerous creatures.

Each colony consists of many different species of Glugwigs, all living together in a colony controlled by a single queen.
 

SPECIES

Queen: Each colony has only one queen. She is, by far, the largest of the species, being nearly four times the size of a warrior. However, due to the Queen's immense weight, she can barely move without the help of many drones.
Warriors: A Warrior can be seen in the image above. These are the only Glugwigs that generally leave the colony's cave, usually in search of food or new locations to settle. Warrior Glugwigs have one large eye which rest on top their enormous head, and from their torsos extent multiple tentacles.
Guardians: These creatures are crawlers and use stealth over strength to defeat enemies or catch prey. Each has three long thick tentacles which all meet near their huge mouths. The role of Guardian Glugwigs is to defend the eggs and the Queen.
Drones: These are about the size of a common house cat, but look like nothing more than worms with huge teeth. The drones rarely hunt, at least not alone, but instead they work in the caves, moving eggs, the Queen, or food around as needed.
Parasites: Unlike the other species, parasites don't hatch directly from eggs, rather they are injected into captured prey and when birthed, feed upon the doomed victim.
