The kiramon has a mobile head with huge, bulging, eyes that sparkle in a faceted clustering around the lidless perimiter. Protruding from the massive head is a vicious-looking snout with insectile mandibles, while the back of the cranium is a distended, two-lobed case. Remarkably powerful rear legs jut backward from an extremly hard, resilient, exoskeleton-like body, that seems to be in constant motion. Though the middle legs have evolved away long ago, the front legs end in strong opposing claws and knobby-jointed fingers. Stunted wings flap uselessly from its long cylindrical body.[1]
