A terrestrial arthropod native to [[Hororeon]], varieties of '''muriapedes''' are found in several different climates, including the tropical jungles, mountainous cloud forests and even polluted urban environments. '''Muriapedes''' have dozens of legs that poke out from beneath interlocking plates of carapace which ripple like waves as it moves around, and a pair of extendable mouthparts called venipalps, which it uses as sensory organs as well as natural weapons. Using fine hairs and spiracules to perceive motion and chemicals in the air, the '''muriapede''' is able to sniff out scraps from the larger predators of [[Hororeon]] and track down insects small enough for it to hunt.
