Karack metallites are small burrowing creatures that consume metal. In their dormant state they take on the appearance of six-sided borinium ingots, a form of currency. When awake, the metallites move like spiders on six spindly black legs with red stripes. They can survive in atmosphere and, at least for a time, in vacuum. The only thing known to kill them is extreme heat, as in a fire.
