Amphibious, it can leave the water for short periods of time and thus avoid the various predators that inhabit it. Females are larger than males, though not by much, and for the most part it is to compensate for their enlarged gonads. These allow the females to produce thousands of eggs into the currents at a given time, hopefully to be fertilized.

Descended from the hitchhiker scuttler, the rugged scuttler has made the first few steps onto land. Amphibious, it can leave the water for short periods of time and thus avoid the various predators that inhabit it. Females are larger than males, though not by much, and for the most part it is to compensate for their enlarged gonads. These allow the females to produce thousands of eggs into the currents at a given time, hopefully to be fertilized. If they should be, they will soon hatch and release microscopic larvae which will drift along the currents until they are large enough to settle down and begin molting into their adult forms. Overall they are not that different from the baseline scuttler or their amphibious kin.
