there's a species-changing gene thing that just turns you purple. that's it you're purple and it's kind of shitty.
it makes being a diplomat bad sometimes because instead of a rad skeleton or shifty lizard you're just..a purple guy.
instead just let genetics have full spectrum control over your skin color and be whatever shade of purple or blue or whatever you want bam

good sprites arborinus
may need additional ones for facing other directions i guess
would be cute to see them recolored to reflect the different fish types present in the fishy freezer

I always thought these were meant to be like Lovecraft's Deep Ones, but having a race of Zoidbergs seems like a far more interesting idea.
