Under the Klyros desctription it says
Their skin is similar to reptiles, being slimy and cold, and varies from gray-green to steel dark blue
Don't know if this has been brought to anyone's attention yet but a reptile's skin isn't slimy. They may have been thinking of Amphibions or fish but I happen to have owned a few lizards and snakes in my life and i haven't ever seen a slimy one. I have seen slimy frogs though but that may be due to the fact that they were in water >.> Anyways please look into this, To my experience most reptiles have either a thin rough skin, a bumpy thick skin or a scaily skin, usually it looks shiny (Which makes it look rather wet-ish but it isn't). I just wanted to report this for the sake of telling you.
also again sorry if i put this on the wrong board i read through all of the descriptions and none mentioned the main page(Unless i missed one like an idiot XP)

yeah, i can remember this being pointed out like a year or two ago.
Looks like noone took efford to really correct this. Or there was some explanation i cant remember. Only it isn't very likely.

Well, it seems fairly cemented in RPs that Klyros' skin is in fact slimy, whether or not the reptiles on Earth are like that. Better off just take out the comparison between reptile skin and Klyros' skin...
Either that, or pretty much everyone who played a Klyros in the past is screwed :P
-
Nonononono i don't want them to change the Klyros attributes i just wanted the analogy changed that's all. It just seems to reflect Negatively on the wisdom of the Devs, plus it says something about reptiles that isn't true (and misinformation is much worse then none)

Slimey skin + wind = dry your skin out = bad for flying

hmm have to say looking at the klyros model the skin doesnt looks slimy. Also feel Zanzibars comment about flying is also a good one. Eventhough they are only gliding ;)

So does heat, salt, dust, clothing... I'd imagine they'd have evolved to cope with all that. All they have to do is add that Klyros drink a lot of water, and problem's solved: they perspire constantly, even moreso while 'flying'.
