It's said that the evolution of Metamorphiers depends on what their ward requires, breaking from their cocoon when they're deemed needed. It's not clear how accurate this is to the species.

Lusus naturae, (shorthand Lusus, plural Lusii, also referred to as custodians), are animals who look after young trolls, fulfilling the role of a typical parental figure. Lusii are either naturally occurring, or artificially reduplicated by Corporate. Artificial lusii often take on more of the traditional caretaker role, while a relationship with a natural lusus tends to be more symbiotic in nature.

Lusii are naturally blackblooded, changing to match the blood color of their charge after a bond is formed. A lusus' eyes fill in with this color as well.

Aspect Holder Lusii

Cooperi attacking.

Cooperi

First Appearance DCRC icon.png

Cooperi, also called Coop, is Sova's lusus. Cooperi is part of the Stryx family, a type of owl-like lusii valued for their feathers. Cooperi could be seen helping in defeating homunculi before Sova entered the Medium. Cooperi was left behind on Repiton as she couldn't fit through the entry portal. Despite this, Sova has promised Cooperi they'll see each other again.


Dismas' lusus.

Skulltitan lusus

First Appearance DCRC icon.png

Dismas' lusus. An abusive Skulltitan lusus whom Dismas frequently gets into fights with. This lusus is strong enough to leave notable scars on his charge. He kidnapped Dismas when he was young, and forced him to mine for radioactive ore to feed him.

Awakened from below Repiton's crust by Jentha's nuclear energy, this lusus was the runt of his litter. As the lusus fed off of the nuclear energy to be more strong, he was sent to the dunes alongside Dismas using Space alchemy. While the lusus was supposed to be put down (if when found, a lusus bond with Dismas hasn't formed), due to the fact both of them were never found, he managed to survive.

He was ripped apart by Weird Al after being possessed by the Denizen of Mind in order to activate Dismas' portal.

As a species, Skulltitans are large lizard-like lusii and similar to the pop culture icon Godzilla by size and abilities. The lusii seem to carry significance in culture on Repiton, being mentioned as early as page 8 DCRC icon.png as a comparison of a large, destructive creature and having several movies and merchandise based off of them DCRC icon.png. They're hard to kill without any proper technology.
