==Morphology and Physiology==
Adult Nusriza tend to mate for life, with the female laying a one to two eggs at a time. The offspring hatch after approximately 120 days and are bot morphologically and physiologically distinct from their adult forms. The juveniles resemble four-legged, flying lizards and grow in size for about 15 [[Galactic Year|Galactic years]]. At this point they reach adolescence and become highly sexually active, aggressively mating with other juveniles in a period known as the [[Quickening]]. This enthusiastic mating does not fertilize the females, but wearies the juveniles into a extremely nutrient deprived state. This state causes them to desire the meat of a creature called the [[Algerion|algerion]]. The unique enzymes in this creatures meat causes a physiological change that matures the Nusriza into its adult form, strengthening their rear legs for walking upright, causing their forelimbs to becomes more dexterous, and causing their wings to shrivel and fall away leaving them flightless. Some juveniles are not receptive to the algerion's enzymes and are stuck in a perpetual state of sexual frenzy, often dying of exhaustion and starvation. However, healthy Nusriza enjoy a particularly long lifespan among the [[Younger Races]] of approximately 160 years. Adults are mainly insectivores, enjoying a variety of insects prepared in a myriad of ways.
