Yailepps, Wanu, and Uo are what make up the Vivaltrens, though rarely are they ever referred to by this term. This is a very old term, used at a time when Sub Edden was unexplored, even by the Ninavor.
Yailepps and Wanu have the incredible ability to rearrange both their internal and external anatomy, in a polymorphic manner. Their exterior hide looks to be made of many wrapping cords of solid colors, with a texture of supple leather. Because of their polymorphic nature, no definite description of their form is accurate for long, but it’s suffice to say they appear as bipeds, as often as they don’t.
One thing universal to their appearance is their gigantic stature. Typically weighing ten thousand tons or more, and ranging from thirty to sixty meters long these shape-shifting behemoths are their own microbiomes. With an ability to change their body’s form and structure within, also comes the ability to adjust the color and texture of their hide. Though their polymorphic abilities are limited in scope, these advantages have long suited the Yailepps and Wanu alike in both evasion and ambush.
Appearance & Anatomy
Wanu:
- Height/Length: (>200′)
- Weight: (>200,000lbs)
- Skin Color(s): Primarily the body is either white, light green, pale yellow, or light blue. However many parts of their bodies can be any number of different colors, and can be adjusted accordingly.

Abilities
Atmobeams & Fluorescerays:
Apart of what makes the Yailepps and Wanu such unique peoples is the intensely alien anatomy of their gigantic dynamic forms. The biological mechanics that allows them to alter the form and appearance of their bodies is driven primarily by the gaseous nature of their internal anatomy. Their vascular system, the operations of their muscles, and almost all other body functions are facilitated by the changes in the internal air pressure of various tissues and structures. Apart of this design was the ability to emit, spray, shed, or otherwise incorporate the use of these various gaseous compounds as a means of powerfully interacting with their environment. Powerful abilities are available to any Yailepp or Wanu who adjust their forms to produce the correct conditions. Such notable uses are atmobeams and fluorescerays. To further detail what these atmobeams and fluorescerays look like it first has to be understood that each individual Vivaltren is unique in the expression of these abilities as the control of their bodies shape is so variable. Atmobeams come in the form of an intense jet of gas, which depending on the chemical composition can cause caustic, freezing, burning, or even a shrapnel effect. With fluorescerays many parts of the body are used in conjunction with one another to devastating effectiveness. First a spray coats a broad area with a specialized gel substance that then interacts with certain energetic emissions produced by what amount to eyes that emit light. Under the correct conditions these fluorescerays have been able to petrify, incinerate, and even coat in molten glass anything they hit with their spray and rays. These light rays on their own are either ultraviolet or infrared, and usually work as hypnotic lures for subjects to be effectively coated in the bio-gels which complete the effect.
