## At a glance

- Thallo IV is dim under its rain clouds, so the chimps grew their own light. Two pale green fronds rise from the head and glow softly. The fur has a dark green sheen, like wet moss.

- Hunts Seven from about 30 metres away and keeps coming. A hit takes 12 points off a 100-point shield.

- Home: Thallo IV.
