Homebrew Gallitar (Brain encased in Crystal Gel) Species Details

These organs are reminiscent of human lungs, one produces a gel around the nervous system, the other begins to form after the first year.

The nervous system will grow along it, behaving as muscle as well, before a brain will form inside a skull. Two eyes for viewing and a third at the top that can share information with other Gallitar.
