Rockian

Rockians are large rock people that live on the mountains of many planets. They are extremely strong and some are born with crystals on their backs, or they could be an entirely different subspecies made out of granite, marble, or quartz. Some famous Rockians are Krimlar the great and Crunch.

Rockians can be born but they also can form naturally over time atop the mountains. Like Earth Crustaceans, Rockians will molt to grow larger. The Rockian brain is usually made of a mineral like iron, jasper, and amethyst, in some rare cases, diamonds.
