Briefing
On the surface, this looks very similar to a common Protolith, until you see that the 'eyes' have multiplied; those are not eyes of course, but appendages for energy weapons. The beams have split into two separate units on both port and starboard sides, though slightly weaker in overall strength. This increases this organism's beams from four to six. Energy signatures coming from the propulsion unit seems to be slightly lower however. It is not really understood why this specific kind of Protolith has modified itself this way, but it continues to thrive, perhaps even more successfully than the common Protolith. Regeneration Rate 7
