US Aliens 4: Petchi

Ah, Petuchi. The starfishiest of all the Starfish Aliens.
The sky really is the limit as to what these guys can look like. My favorite part about them--which is also the part that will be hardest to convey--is that their bodies are largely like puppets. But since they can mold their bodies however they like, they don't necessarily keep one form all the time. So, say a Petuchi wanted to grab a pen on a high shelf or something like that. It would just extend its arm further to get there, and it might not change it back. Skilled and mature Petuchi usually do maintain one form at a time, but there's no real rule saying they can't change things up when it's convenient. If they need an extra arm, no one will stop them from making one. :P
