Titanomachina: Hyperspace

 

Space Squid or Intergalactic Dumbass Octopus

You would think space empty, on a scale that puts the ocean floor to shame, it is not. It is not enough to aim for the stars, but to beware the paths in the dark between the stars. Access to higher dimensions of hyperspace comes at a cost, and that is giving entities that move in higher dimensions a light to hone in against a background of stars. Sometimes, when a Titan walks the starpaths, they may be followed back, and be forced to defend themselves and their planet. Capable of hyperspatial movement even deep in a gravity well, the space squid poses a substantial threat to a Titan or Myrmidon Swarm. 

Consisting of a body, 8 arms, and 2 tentacles. The body has two eyes, two fins, one beak, four brains, three hearts. The arms can walk and attack, and block. The tentacles can jump, attack, and block. Fins enable jumps and twists. Beaks can attack. Eyes scan and detect. Brains operate. Notably no shields and no repair. Tentacles and arms have grapple. They move as independent models with three damage each, and 360o arcs. 

What I need to do with the squid in the picture and somehow twist the arms into spirals like a cirrate or dumbo octopus, and then disembodied arms and tentacles spiraling into 3 dimensions. In the mean-time I am amused by what I can and cannot yet do in Blender.
