Krylon
Floating Gas-Giant xenosapient species from the upper atmosphere of Krylos.
Krylon are floating, jellyfish-like creatures from the upper atmosphere of Krylos, a gas giant. Their bodies are composed of a lightweight, hydrogen-filled sac that allows them to float effortlessly. Krylon reproduce through a process of budding, where a mature individual grows a smaller version of itself that eventually detaches and grows into adulthood. Their society is structured around floating colonies that drift through the upper atmosphere of Krylos. Krylon are highly resistant to extreme pressures and can absorb energy from their surroundings. They are often employed as scientists and engineers, though their alien psychology makes them poor diplomats.
