Biochemistry

=Adhesives, Silks and Glues=

Gossamer


Effect: Gossamer is protein fiber made to make silk. It can be used to build webs, cocoons, nests or just to help climb.

Example(s): Silk-Sandworm, Weaving Scuttlecrab, Fortress Weavercrab, Stickysilk Scuttlecrab

Lignin


Effect: Lignin is chemical that keeps flora leaves stiff. This stiffness makes the flora unattractive to most herbivores. The stiffness also allows the leaves to grow taller without bending. It also makes the leaves pure yellow in color. Example(s): Arudamarg

=Divisives, Acids and Dissolvers=

Chitinase


Effect: Chitinase are digestive enzymes that break down glycosidic bonds in chitin

Example(s): Chitinbane, Desert Chitinbane

Cellulase


Effect: Cellulase is a strong chemical that dissolves cellulose.

Example(s): Cellulosebane Crystal

=Poisons, Toxins and Venoms=

Tetrodotoxin


Effect: This toxin is used to paralyze its victim. Tetrodotoxin blocks the nerves by binding into the pores of cell membranes.

Example(s): Hydrogen Jellysquid, Rainbow Kraken
