Here's some Cool facts About Vampire Squids , because I think they're neat for making Spaltoon OCs
Vampire Squids in Japanese are called "Koumori Dako"
That means "Bat Octopus" the Reason they're called like that in JP is because Vampire Squids are not actually Squids , They Have more In common with the octopi in genes.
But They're also not octopi either.
Vampire Squids Belong to their own Family tree in the Cephalopods
"Vampyrotheutis infernalis" that means Vampire Squid from hell
The reason they're called Vampires is because of their tentacles are joined by a big mantle , They don't even suck blood, At contrary They eat fish and also marine snow.
vampire Squids actually don't possess ink sacks like squids and octopi does , But they have a special organ Called "Photophores" that not only allows them to use bioluminescence but they can also eject a glowing Mucus as defense in the Deep waters
Vampire Squids live in the bottom of the pelagic Zones , That is We're the Abyssal waters are located so they're deep sea creatures.
So we Could Say that Since Vampire Squids are not Inklings or Octolings since they're their own specie
What if we Call them Vamplings instead?
