Varactyl



Varactyl are cold-blooded lizards that sun themselves on the sides of the Utapaun sinkholes, varactyls are well-evolved to survive in the vertical environs of their native planet. During daylight hours, varactyls are very active, scrabbling upwards on the craggy surfaces to catch the slanting daylight as the lower levels of the sinkhole are plunged into darkness. It is during the day that a varactyl feeds, snapping up rock-hugging green-muck from the lower, wetter levels and cracking through the softer sandstone in the drier heights to get at the succulent arterial roots that permeate the porous rocks.
