✦ Membrane
Composed of a viscous, translucent material, a Buzinya's membrane sits atop its host's head and protects the nucleus within. It may also appear on other parts of the body, such as a limb or tail, and is usually indicative of an injury the Buzinya attempted to heal. Strong digestive enzymes can be found within the membrane, but without a host, it is unlikely the Buzinya will be able to catch a substantial meal due to their slow movement. While they have the ability to extend their membrane to absorb objects, this is extremely energy-consuming without a host's body to do it for them. These enzymes are powerful enough to digest bone, scales, and even rock.
✦ Antenna
A Buzinya's antenna is an extremely important body part, as it is how they communicate with other Buzinyas. Severing or removing the antenna results in essentially removing the Buzinya's equivalent to ears and vocal cords, rendering them completely incapable of hearing and speaking. Pair this with their inability to understand Lythians without a host, as well as the pain, many Buzinyas with severed antennae tend to perish shortly after. On the rare occasion one survives, it tends to become incredibly dependent on the closest thing it perceives to be protection – often a Lythian.

✦ Nucleus
The nucleus of a Buzinya is simplistic, housing the mitochondria — the equivalent of its stomach — and the Nucleolus — the equivalent of its brain. While a mouth is visible on the nucleus, it is used exclusively for communication and not for food ingestion. Instead, microscopic pores found on the nuclear envelope are in charge of this, absorbing any digested nutrients from the membrane cytoplasm into the mitochondria. The nucleolus on the other hand has magic properties stored within it that, when viewed through certain types of magic, reveals that either the host's or the Buzinya's consciousness is harbored within, depending on which is currently in control of the body at the time.
✦ Graspers
Around the bottom of the Buzinya's membrane is a set of tentacle-like graspers, which are used both as locomotion for a hostless Buzinya, as well as for grasping onto a chosen host's neck. Once the host's head is fully digested and the rest of the body is overtaken by the Buzinya's cytoplasm, they may opt to hide their graspers due to no longer needing them, while others may keep them out for show.
Hosts


✦ Lythian
Buzinyas cannot be created via a normal character slot. Instead, players must obtain a Buzinya item, which can be found in certain shops and explorations. The item can be applied to a pre-existing character to give them the "Infected" label. The character will still be under its original species on the index, but can now be updated to include a Buzinya Form. You can choose to set this form as its main index image or use the FORMula Plus item to unlock an additional, toggle-able image.
Alternatively, you can also submit a new character slot and apply your Buzinya to it to start off with a Buzinya form. However, you must still select another Lythian species to have the Buzinya infect, and follow the base core features of.

✦ Companion
A Buzimew is a smaller, less powerful variant of the Buzinya that can only infect Companion species, and can only vocalize through their original language and the Companion's vocalizations. Players must obtain a Buzimew item and apply it to a pre-existing Companion or submit it with a new character slot design. Said Companion will receive "Infected" as a label.
