Novacrabs are a pod design bio-engineered from coconut crab and spider crab stock and grown to a larger (human) size. Novacrabs are ideal for hazardous work environments as well as vacworker, police, or bodyguard duties, given their ten 2-meter long legs, massive claws, and chitinous armor. They climb and handle microgravity well and can withstand a wide range of atmospheric pressure (and sudden pressure changes) from vacuum to deep sea. Novacrabs feature compound eyes (with human-equivalent image resolution), gills, dexterous manipulatory digits on their fifth set of limbs, and transgenic vocal cords.

Expat: I know some people really dig their crab morphs, but these things really squick me out when they eat.
Just Mortal: The question everyone wants to know is: how do their legs taste?
Sun Bu’er: An exhuman I once spoke to told me they were “delicious, but not as good as splicer.”
