The plagueater split from its ancestor after the GRB. It has spread all over the Sea Floor in the Jujubee Ocean, scavenging for food, as well as eating some things that are only eaten by the jumping shellpedes and shellpedes: namely, the animals infected with Malakommalis, and the shellpedes themselves. Aside from this, and a few alterations in its physical look, it is very much like its ancestor.
