 +The acidic chemicals within the Kryss allow them to digest many materials for nourishment including solid metal and stone. This acidity also makes their blood a very dangerous substance when injured. Kryss can consume the more traditional food of other species, but their higher caloric needs often aren't met this way.
  
 +Adult Kryss drones are, on average, between 2 and 2.5 meters tall. Queens sometimes reach a height of 4 meters and are considerably heavier.
  
-===== Reproduction ​=====  +==== Reproduction ==== 
 +Necessity and random mutation have distanced the Kryss from their original parasitic form of reproduction. The traditional "​hive"​ structure of drones and a queen remains, but no outside host is necessary - drones, upon reaching maturity (which takes roughly 20 human years), directly fertilize eggs laid by the queen.

 +When the Kryss were introduced to the galactic stage, they were also introduced to stories of their ancestor species - a savage, parasitic predator known to wipe out entire colonies. Although considered largely eradicated, they were known to still be a threat in some remote regions.

 +It took a considerable amount of time for the original Kryss diplomats to make peace with the interstellar community, and fighting the prejudice of their race is still an uphill battle for many. Some Kryss are raised not knowing about their own reputation, but many are well educated on the horrors their race one wrought, if not as a way to understand the hatred against them than to, perhaps, prevent any resurgence of predatory instinct.
