The Der'em are, or were, biped, squat creatures with carapaces. They had a two-stage life where until they were full adults, they lacked a carapace. They would go into a deep hibernation for a couple of galactic years at some point in their adolescence, and when they awoke, it was as a mature, carapaced adult. They also underwent a personality change that was quite pronounced during this period, gaining in intelligence and, most importantly, judgment. The young, uncarapaced individuals were quite headstrong and impulsive as a rule. | The Der'em are, or were, biped, squat creatures with carapaces.
