Description

These poorly understood creatures use their unique shape to facilitate brief hypersonic dashes to escape predators. This particular species is believed to not be carnivorous, however the same can't be said for some of his less docile brethren...

Starfish Rahi! He's also partially based on a hypothetical hypersonic planform. Hence the hypersonic dash to escape predators. Apparently the problem with this shape at high speeds is the increased surface area over more conventional designs creates heating problems, however I imagine that this would be reduced underwater.

Also, last MOC of 2013! So far at least
