This hideous beast consists of two pale-skinned humanoid torsos connected at the waist so that one set of arms provides locomotion and the other is free to attack prey. A head with a fang-filled maw and elongated tongue sits atop each end. Its skin is hairless and translucent, and its eyes have nictating lenses.
