Terachnoid

Terachnoids were a highly intelligent race, native to the planet Terachnos. They had pink skin and an unusual head-to-body size ratio and often wore glasses and other attire that showed off their intelligence. Some member of the race also carried portable consoles with them. The sages of the Terachnoids were apparently the most intelligent. The highest concentration of Terachnoids were in Axiom City.

The Terachnos based-company Pollyx Industries' employees were believed to be made up of purely Terachnoids due to the species apparent ignorance of the intelligence of other lifeforms. Later when Dr. Nefarious took over Pollyx the Terachnoids were constantly under guard. Nefarious's mercinaries patrolled the whole area which annoyed the Terachnoids greatly.

Terachnoids were not entirely selfish. They ran companies that helped others with tech support, although the consumer was usually made fun of due to their lack of knowledge in the technological field. That seemed to be the only business outstide of Terachnos except for Vullard trade. Some Terachnoids had special ships and delivered supplies to the Vullards.

Daily Life
With the Terachnoids high intelligence also came the love of technology. They usually spent a lot of their time playing a massive online role playing game that they seemed to be addicted to. When Ratchet and Alister Azimuth stormed into Pollyx Industries in an attempt to find the Obsidian Eye, Ratchet confronted the Terachnoid at a central computer terminal. Before attacking, the Terachnoid tried to intimidate him by saying that he was "a level 60 wizard, with melee ability." It is also seems that the Terachnoids only seem to enjoy associating with people of their race, as they see any other species as less intelligent than them. There is a possibility that Terachnoids were bullied many times throughout their lifetime. When in Axiom City, Ratchet can hit them with the OmniWrench Millenium 12, causing them to sometimes say: "It's like high school all over again."
