Gastropod

Enigmian Gastropods (commonly known as Snails or Slugs, depending on if they have a shell, or shortened to “Gastropods”) are an odd race native to Enigma. Unlike most other races, Gastropods are physically more like an animal than any other race.

Physiology
Enigmian Gastropods, as you would expect from any snail, do not have arms or traditional legs. This leaves them with having to pick things up with their mouth, and are very slow, although they are able to "walk" on walls. and even upside down.

They eat by spitting a strong digestive acid onto their food, and then eating it, due to their inability to properly chew. This acid can also be used for defense, and typically have the ability to cause chemical burns, and in some cases, melt flesh.

In the case of snails, some of their organs are located in their shells, so these shells have over time become very resistant to damage. For a healthy shell, Snails have adopted a generous amount of calcium into their diet.

Due to their bodies being made up of a lot of water and slime, all land snails/slugs are weak to it, as it quickly dries them up. This can be fatal if they are exposed to a large enough amount. Sea Snails and Slugs are immune to salt, due to living in saltwater, but cannot breathe above water for more than 10-15 minutes, although they have access to devices that allow them to breathe water on land.

Technology
Modern-day Enigmian Snails are gifted with the opportunity to get wearable, cybernetic arms, and many artificial shells that grant them certain abilities. Typically, these artificial shells are easily accessible to slugs, since they don't have a shell, but snails can get them too, although it requires a special type of shell and surgery, due to the need to implant the organs from their biological shell into the artificial shell.
