===Cryd===

The most populous species and essentially the namesake of the Hive, the cryd are a species of arthropods with behaviors much like those of social insects such as ants and bees. They started as a blind, aquatic crustacean which ate the anemones in the water pools, but over time became land based and began to feed on sap from small plants they grew using their luminescent abdomens.
When a massive salamander-like creature with 13 eyes emerged from the abyss of one of the water pools, a the Cryd entered into a symbiotic relationship with the Symet. Together, they struck down the beast, giving them its eyes, which when consumed, caused a number of mutations to arise in both species. From this, the hive first behaviors arose.
