As the [[tileback]]s were being restricted to cold climates, being ectothermic proved to be disadvantageous as they struggled to survive the winter months. Thus, in order to survive, the tilebacks of Vivus began to enter a state of torpor and sleep in tightly-knit groups during the winter months. These behavioral adaptations, among some physical changes, would lead to these Vivus populations evolving into a new species.

'''Clusterbacks''' are very generalistic herbivores, eating almost any kind of vegetation they can reach within their environment, using their keratinized nose spikes to help grab and pull off chunks of flora which are then chewed up a little bit by their toothed jaws into bits small enough to be swallowed. Two smaller nose spikes have developed along the sides of the main one, allowing the clusterback to apply multiple points of pressure on crystal flora and glass flora to break them open. The clusterback has become more robust than its ancestor, with large claws that help them with digging up roots and tubers for them to also feed on. The clusterbacks have also become more heavily armored to give them some minor protection against local predators such as [[bubbleskins]]. They also have patterns to help blend in with the soil of the areas they inhabit, which means predators may sometimes not notice them.
