The Dravidians looked like gigantic grasshoppers, with long bodies and thin spindly, forelimbs, wide heads and huge, segmented eyes. Two sharp mandibles emerged from their mouths and they spoke in chittering sounds. Like true insects, their yellow blood did not carry oxygen through their bodies; instead, they absorbed oxygen through spiracles. Because of their size, they needed oxygen-rich environments to survive; otherwise they would become sluggish. (PROSE: The Planet of Oblivion)
