I bet these will become outdated at some point in future (calling it in advance). but in the meantime, I think it’d be an accurate presentation of Zam.

I guess the torso plating is kind of like an exoskeleton/carapace, much like that of a turtle (or a muscle shirt since that’s what it looks like) which is kind of tough… though ichil have a very rubbery hide anyway, I guess it’s reinforced to protect vital organs. They also have a weird support structure that consists of tubes containing liquid that can change consistency depending on the chemical content… stuff like chemical inbalance or internal hemorrhage might cause a limb to become floppy and unresponsive or rigid and tense etc. With some training an ichil can improve the elasticity of their body asfdsgdg blahhhahahrhg

sorry, mindvomit.
