The Stygians are a race of tentacled bipeds that are deeply involved in organized crime.
History[]
Zade Scraggot, a Stygian crime lord, was involved in various crime-related riots at the Hub. Sqqd'li worked for Scraggot, and hired Rocket and Groot to steal Scalluscs on Scraggot's behalf. However, the two betrayed Scraggot and incapacitated Sqdd'li, leading to a fight between them and Scraggot, which the bounty hunters won.[1]
Characteristic Traits[]
Stygians are a humanoid race, with the most differentiating characteristics being their reptilian physiology, spike scalp frills, and various tentacles in the place where their arms should be. They have red, pupilless eyes and jagged teeth, making them look somewhat monstrous.
