Raiel

The Raiel live within one of the domes of the High Angel. They are larger than a bull elephant, but that is where the comparison ends. Their heads look similar to an octopus tipped on its side – a bulbous head surrounded by a collar of tentacle style limbs ranging from a large pair at the bottom that are used for heavier work to small clumps of slender manipulators with five small eyes on the side of the head. Eight legs with no sign of joints are located on each side of the underbelly. They are an extremely intelligent species and look down at humans from a great intellectual height.
