Alien Life Form Assignment
In the space below, provide a visual representation of your alien life form. Also, answer the questions on the back side
of this sheet.
ice planet that is constantly being struck by meteors. Due to the nature of the planet, the star orbiting it is dim and small
What evolutionary features does your life form have that allow it to thrive in its environment? Explain, in detail, how
they work. Filtis have a hard-outer shell that they can roll into at a moment’s notice like a potato bug on earth, this
allows for Filtis to protect themselves from predators and from the rain of meteors. The shell also allows for them to
travel fast on the ice by rolling, using their antennas as a push off point. When in the water year, Filtis can unroll
themselves and use their tail as a fin in order to travel through the water.
How does your life form communicate (NO TELEPATHY)? Please explain in detail (organs, how the language works). The
Filti communicates through Its antenna and rather than passing radio signals the Filti instead communicates through the
sounds made from hitting its antenna on its shell. The shell has different sounds based on where you hit the antenna on
the shell, and they can change the nature of the message on how many times it hits their shell.
How does your life form take in energy? Please explain in detail (organs, digestion, etc.) The Filti takes in energy through
their mouth on the bottom which they use to absorb energy from its prey like a parasite. Also, a second mouth can reach
from the bigger mouth to grab prey from a distance away and pull towards them.
How does your life form reproduce (use your imagination)? _______________________________________________

What kind of technology does it use (for example: stone tools, biotechnology, or computer tech.)? The Filti isn’t very
advanced, due to the nature of the grueling planet they are found on, with constant meteor strikes, Filtis have trouble
advancing.
What type of social structure does your life form exist in (tribal, villages, cities). Explain a ritual or a custom they have.
The social structure of Filti is they often travel in packs, moving constantly to avoid meteror strikes and the changing
climate
