They have weak eyesight in bright light, and the two pairs of segmented eyes on the heads of both bodies are short-sighted. Thermal sensors line the undersides of the mouths of both bodies. Seeking adequate warmth on cold nights is just as much a priority for them as most other species. Both entities are extremely sensitive to vibrations, and use this to detect prey and hosts through sand, dirt, mud, and the other loose terrain they can call home. The smaller body seems to have a weak sense of smell, and the ability to detect moisture through the membrane of its skin. They seem to prefer warm, moist, or wet areas, but can live in a multitude of climates.
它们在强光下视力很弱,两个身体头部的两对分节眼睛都是近视的。两个身体的口部下侧都排布着热感应器。在寒冷的夜晚寻找足够的热量,对它们来说和其他大多数物种一样是头等大事。两个实体都对振动极其敏感,并借此在沙土、泥土、泥浆和其他它们可以安家的松散地形中探测猎物和宿主。较小的身体似乎嗅觉较弱,但能通过皮肤膜感知湿气。它们似乎偏好温暖、潮湿或湿润的区域,但可以在多种气候中生存。

Not unlike the earthworms of Earth, these creatures undulate their bodies to dig through the ground and move above it. However, unlike Earth’s earthworms, they can do so at speeds fast enough to destabilize the ground above them, at times throwing up chunks of dirt and rocks. Some have even been observed creating sinkholes in order to trap their targets before eating or parasitizing them.
与地球上的蚯蚓不无相似,这些生物通过身体蠕动来钻地、在地面上移动。然而,与地球蚯蚓不同,它们的速度足以让上方的地面失稳,有时会掀起大块泥土和岩石。有人甚至观察到它们制造流沙坑来困住目标,然后再进食或寄生。

===Defenses:===
===防御:===
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
Specialized plates on the larger body allows it to remain unscathed no matter how fast or hard it burrows through the ground. The body however is quite soft and breaks easily to direct impact by any object with force. This has caused some to get injured by crashing into unmoving obstacles underground, it is rarely the case however as they'll detect the obstruction long before they actually get to it. The smaller body has no defenses besides running/crawling away or hiding. They can use their inbuilt chemicals, but they need to be extremely close to have any chance of hitting their target. The large bodies are surprisingly agile for worm-like creatures of their size; they can dodge and avoid many attacks aimed towards them if they happen to be above ground.
较大身体上的特化甲板让它在以任何速度、任何力度钻地时都能毫发无损。不过身体本身相当柔软,被任何有力物体直接击中都会轻易破裂。这让有些个体在撞上地下的静止障碍物时受了伤,不过这种情况很少见,因为它们早在真正撞上之前很久就能探测到障碍。较小的身体除了逃跑/爬走或躲藏之外没有任何防御手段。它们可以使用体内自带的化学物质,但必须靠得极近才有机会命中目标。大身体对于这种体型的蠕虫状生物来说出奇地敏捷;如果在地面上,它们能闪避躲开许多袭来的攻击。

<blockquote>
Both bodies are able to synthesize a versatile green substance. They make it by releasing a cocktail of chemicals into their saliva to create the green substance that increases hormone and sensitivity levels. This substance can be rigid, sticky, slippery, or all of the above at once, based on what is currently needed. The larger body is able to create this liquid much more quickly than the smaller body and and greater magnitudes of mass. It has the ability to concentrate this substance into a ball, which can be flung to incapacitate above-ground enemies. Their fast underground movement speed gives them an advantage over above-ground adversaries, allowing them to sneak up on foes should their target not know how to identify their movements.
两个身体都能合成一种多功能绿色物质。它们通过向唾液中释放一套化学物质混合物来制造这种绿色物质,它能提升荷尔蒙和敏感度水平。这种物质可以是坚硬的、粘稠的、滑溜的,或者同时具备以上所有性质,取决于当前的需要。较大的身体制造这种液体的速度远快于较小的身体,且能制造的体量也大得多。它能把这种物质浓缩成一个球,掷出去使地面上的敌人丧失行动能力。它们地下的快速移动速度使它们相对于地面上的对手占据优势,只要目标不知道如何识别它们的动静,它们就能悄悄逼近敌人。

===性别二态性:===
===Sexual Dimorphism:===
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
The larger bodies are completely indistinguishable from one another. However, the smaller bodies can clearly be identified as either male or female through sight alone. The majority of the male’s body is a large, phallic protrusion that normally flops around, but stiffens when it is near females. This protrusion is attached to a bulbous base where its eyes, mouth, and six spindly legs are situated. All males are dull yellow in color, and uniform in shape. Females have the same wormlike body structure as the larger entity they normally inhabit, and move the same way, albeit much slower. On either end of their body, they have an orifice resembling the exterior of an anus. A large variety of females exist, with differences in body structures and biological mechanisms. Humanoid and other body types of hilinara organisms exist, but only as the result of the successful parasitization and pregnancy of a large female inside an appropriate host.
较大的身体彼此之间完全无法区分。然而,较小的身体仅凭肉眼就能清楚分辨雌雄。雄性身体的大部分是一根硕大的阴茎状突起,平时软塌塌地晃荡,靠近雌性时则会变硬。这根突起连接着一个球茎状的基部,眼睛、嘴巴和六条细腿都在上面。所有雄性都是暗黄色,形状统一。雌性与它们通常栖居的较大实体拥有同样的蠕虫状身体结构,移动方式也相同,只是慢得多。它们的身体两端各有一个外观类似肛门开口的孔洞。雌性存在大量变体,身体结构和生物机制各不相同。人形以及其他体型结构的 hilinara 生物也存在,但只能是大型雌体在合适宿主体内成功寄生并怀孕的结果。
</div>


<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
两性都拥有神经操控器官,从主身体内部延伸出去控制较大的蠕虫状身体。就雄性而言,这些器官会在排出过程中被扯掉。而雌性则能在嵌入宿主时缩回并随后重复使用它们。这些触手储存在主身体内部,直到需要时才显露。只有少数几根触手用于"神经融合",其余的则留作可操控的触须状探测器,能够进行精细操作。
Both sexes have nerve manipulation organs that extend from within their main bodies to control their larger worm-like body. In the case of males, these are ripped away in the process of ejection. Females, on the other hand, are able to retract and subsequently reuse them while they are embedded in their hosts. These tendrils are stored within their main body, hidden until they are needed. Only a few of the tendrils are used in the ‘nerve merge’, while the rest remain available as tentacular feelers capable of manual manipulation.

===通常栖息环境:===

While they are currently only found on Tarkus, it is likely that they would thrive in any environment containing the soft ground or sand that allows them to move their larger worm-like bodies.

===智力:===
===Intelligence:===
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
Nowhere near sapient levels, they follow a main biological imperative. They have some degree of intelligence, which is higher while connected to the larger sandworm bodies’ neural matrix. They seem able to develop an affection for long-term hosts. Worm-hybrids have considerably more intelligence than the regular sandworms, but are still considered rudimentary compared to galactic standards. Their capacity for compassion seems limited to their carrier or others with genetic similarities, making cooperation between them and another person more or less impossible without the original host nearby. If a particular female has enough offspring they can create something like a hive mind, and have occasionally been seen to work together like ant or bee colonies.
远未达到智慧水平,它们遵循一条主要的生物法则。它们拥有一定程度的智力,在连接到大沙虫身体的神经矩阵时智力会更高。它们似乎能对长期宿主产生感情。虫类混血体比普通沙虫聪明得多,但按照银河系标准仍被视为原始。它们的同情心似乎仅限于自己的载体或基因相似者,因此如果没有原宿主在场,它们与他人合作几乎是不可能的。如果某只雌性的后代足够多,它们可以形成类似蜂巢意识的东西,偶尔有人看到它们像蚂蚁或蜜蜂群落一样协同工作。

'''大型躯体的构造:'''
'''较大身体的构建:'''


<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
通过本能地施加分泌物并调节自身荷尔蒙,它们在土壤或沙地中建造一个绿色网状的茧。这个茧在一段漫长的时间内培育它们的次级身体,在此期间它们进入休眠状态,安全地隐藏在外面。几周之后,次级身体的体积将达到建造它的昆虫的两倍,随时可以接管。寄生虫随后破开茧,从新生物头部的一道肉质缝隙滑入其中。一旦进入,它就会与刚长成的蠕虫融合,用神经触手控制较大的身体,直到找到更合适的宿主。
By instinctively applying their secretions and by varying their hormones, they build a greenish-webbed-up pod in the soil or sand. This pod grows their secondary body over a long period of time as they enter into a state of hibernation outside of it, safely hidden away. Once several weeks have passed, the secondary body will be about twice the size of the insect that built it, and will be ready to be taken control of. The parasite then enters it by breaking open the pod and sliding in through a fleshy slit in the head of the new creature. Once inside, it will merge with the freshly grown worm, using its nerve tendrils to control the larger body until a more suitable host is found.
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
</div>


<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
===寄生:===
===Parasitism:===
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
If the larger body controlled by the smaller organism manages to defeat or incapacitate an enemy that would be receptive to parasitization, the organism moves in to hold onto the future host with hidden pincer-ended limbs located behind the jaws. This helps to expose the soon-to-be-occupied anal cavity. Once the desired hole is found, the sand worm excretes an especially slippery version of its secretions on the host’s cavity. A couple of its long prehensile tongues are then used to massage the liquid further into the hole. After this is done, the tongues retract and the worm locks its body into position, essentially trapping the victim. The majority of the head where the smaller parasite first entered splits open, exposing the neural slit where the parasite is located, and the ejection process begins.
如果由较小生物控制的大身体成功击败或制服了一个适合寄生的敌人,该生物就会上前,用藏在颌后的带钳肢体抓住未来的宿主。这有助于暴露即将被占据的肛门腔。一旦找到理想的孔洞,沙虫就会在宿主的腔道内分泌一种格外滑溜的分泌物。接着,它用几根长长的可缠绕舌头把液体进一步按摩进洞内。完成这一步后,舌头缩回,蠕虫把身体锁在固定位置,实际上困住了受害者。较小寄生虫最初进入时所在的大部分头部会裂开,露出寄生虫所在的神经缝,排出过程随即开始。
</div>


<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
一旦从缝中排出、落在无法动弹的生物身上,雌性寄生虫就会把自己的锥形前端对准肛门环。这时它会用舌头状的触手强行撑开肛门,扭动着钻进去与宿主融合。雄性寄生虫会感知宿主是否已被感染:如果已感染,它会像雌性一样被排出,以便在宿主体内与雌性交配,给任何可能即将产下的卵受精。但如果它的目标体内没有雌性,它往往会借用较大的身体作为杠杆来惩罚敌人。到这个过程结束时,较大的身体通常已经干瘪到足以让被抓住的生物挣脱它那已变脆的束缚。
Once ejected through the slit and onto the immobilized creature, a female parasite will position its tapered front at the anal ring. This is when it uses the tongue tendrils to force the anus open and wriggle inside to merge with the host. Male parasites will sense whether or not the host is already infected: if they are, he will be ejected just like the female, so that he can have sex with the female inside the host and fertilize any eggs that might be ready to be laid. However, if his target is not host to a female he'll often punish his foe using his larger body as leverage. By the time that this process has finished, the larger body has usually dried up enough for the creature being held to break free of its now brittle confines.

附着在宿主消化系统上的 Hilinara 寄生虫,既通过血液直接吸收营养获得养分,也通过吞食载体无法消化的东西获得养分。未附着宿主的 Hilinara 生物是机会主义的清道夫,什么都吃,只要比它们小、勉强能消化。在志愿者实验中那些被放入阴道腔的个体会在一段时间后营养不良。有一个样本被观察到在受试者睡觉时试图从阴道腔移到肛门。奇怪的是,受试者在寄生虫移动的过程中并没有醒来。一旦 Hilinara 寄生虫进入宿主的肛门——无论是强行爬进一个已被制服的目标那经生物润滑的肛门环,还是得到预定宿主自愿同意——雌性就开始了寄生阶段。它们用六根神经触手中的两根与载体的内部皮肉和神经融合。一旦发生这种情况,受害者就需要医疗救助才能取出。
Hilinara parasites attached to a host’s digestive system gain sustenance both from direct absorption of nutrients through the bloodstream, and from consuming what the carrier hasn’t been able to digest. Hilinara organisms not attached to hosts are opportunistic scavengers, eating anything smaller than them and remotely digestible. Those that have been inserted into the vaginal cavity during volunteer experiments became malnourished after a while. One specimen was observed trying to move from the subject’s vaginal cavity to the anus while the subject was sleeping. Oddly enough, the subject did not awaken during the organism’s move. Once the Hilinara parasite finds its way into a host’s anus, either by forcefully crawling into a pacified target’s biologically lubed-up anal ring, or through the willing permission of the intended host, the female begins their parasitic stage. They do this by using two of their six neural tendrils to merge with the inner flesh and nerves of their carrier. Once this has happened the victim will require medical assistance to remove it.

雌性在争夺已捕获的宿主时领地意识极强,而且由于获得宿主的频率很低,它们还拥有把另一只雌性与宿主分离的酶。为了做到这一点,入侵的雌性必须和已经在里面的那只一起爬进目标的肛门。一旦到位,它就会在神经连接点释放酶,切断既有雌性与宿主的连接。随后两只雌性会在宿主体内扭打,用神经触手互相缠斗,直到分出胜负。
Females are heavily territorial when it comes to captured hosts, and due to the infrequency of obtaining a host they also have enzymes to separate another female from its host. In order to do this the invading female has to crawl into the target’s anus along with the one already present. Once there, it will release the enzymes at the nerve connection points, severing the established female from its host. The two females will then wrestle inside the recipient, using their nerve tendrils as grapplers to eventually decide the victor.

这个过程常常导致肛门腔神经敏感度飙升,几乎总是让能够高潮的物种持续高潮不断。对某些个体来说,高潮的强度和频率甚至几乎能把宿主逼疯。虽然对载体来说可能感觉像永恒,但大多数打斗不会超过几分钟。应当指出,某些雌性变体确实比其他变体拥有明显的生物学优势:数据表明,这是一个按下面列举顺序循环的等级体系。
This process often causes spikes in the nerve sensitivity of the anal cavity, almost always causing non-stop orgasms in species that are able to have them. For some the orgasms can occur with such strength and frequency that it can nearly drive the host insane. Though it may feel like an eternity to the carrier, most fights don’t last longer than a few minutes. It should be noted that some of the female variants do have distinct biological advantages over others: data suggests it to be a cyclical hierarchy in the order of the examples listed below.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
一些参与自愿实验的宿主报告说,她们的寄生虫对她们的生活有着主动影响。大多数时候,寄生虫会缩回肛门深处,把自己伪装起来,让宿主向性伴侣介绍自己这位"乘客"时看起来像什么都没有。另一些时候,寄生虫会公然宣示存在:在雄性生殖器官面前刺激肛门通道,甚至拉下衣物让载体暴露。在大多数情况下,宿主会逐渐偏好肛交。许多人会对产卵阶段释放的内啡肽上瘾,开始主动寻找雄性 Hilinara 寄生虫。有些个体靠出售捕获的雄性寄生虫获利,但这项生意只在拓荒潮期间的卵癖爱好者黑市上兴隆,主要围绕塔库斯展开。
Some hosts in voluntary experiments reported their parasite as having an active influence in their lives. Most of the time the parasites disappear deeper into the anus and disguise themselves to make it look as though they aren’t there when hosts try to tell sexual partners of their ‘passenger’. Other times the parasite will make its presence blatantly obvious by stimulating the anal passage in the presence of male reproductive organs or even pulling down garments to expose the carrier. In most cases, hosts will develop a preference for anal sex. Many will become addicted to the endorphins released during the egg laying phase, and start actively seeking out male Hilinara parasites. Some individuals have made a profit out of selling captured males, but this business has only thrived in the black market among egg fetishists during the rush, primarily around Tarkus.

所有雌性 Hilinara 寄生虫都能扩张内部肌肉,用力撑开宿主的肛壁,实际上把自己变成生物扩张器,撑开肛门以方便卵通过。关于卵和产卵的更多细节可以在繁殖一节中找到。
All female Hillinara parasites have the ability to expand their inner muscles and forcefully stretch the host’s anal walls, essentially turning themselves into biological speculums, gaping the anus and easing egg passage.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
以下是在近期探险中发现的已知雌性变体:
These are the known female variations found so far in recent expeditions:
</div>


<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
1.  '米色'雌体:这一变体是目前发现的数量最多、分布最广的类型。它们呈米色,皮肤质地相对光滑。它们在宿主体内保持生殖休眠,直到被雄性屁股虫受精,之后它们会在宿主的肠道内产下受精卵,在那里孵化一周。随着卵在妊娠中生长膨胀,常常让载体看起来像是被它们的总体积撑得怀孕了。一旦雌体认为卵已成熟,它就会迫使宿主进入一种伪分娩状态,通过自己的身体把已经长大的卵从宿主的肛门腔中产出。在产卵过程中,它们会迫使宿主的孔洞扩张到刚好够卵通过的宽度。米色雌体通常产下大约十二枚卵。
1.       The ‘Beige’ Female: This variant is by far the most abundant and widespread type found to date. They are beige in color and have a relatively smooth skin texture. They stay reproductively dormant in the host until it has been fertilized by a male butt bug, after which it will lay fertilized eggs inside of the gut of the host where they will mature for a week. As the eggs gestate, they grow and expand, often making the carrier look pregnant with their combined bulk. Once the female deems them ready, she forces the host into a state of faux labor, birthing the now enlarged eggs through her own body and out of the host’s anal cavity. During the laying process, they force the host’s orifice to stretch just wide enough to allow the passage of the eggs. Beige females generally produce just over a dozen eggs.
</div>


<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
2.  '绿色'雌体:比米色雌体稍大也更稀有,通体与大蠕虫身体的肉色一样绿,表面大部分覆盖着较浅的绿色疙瘩。这一变体会持续产下完整大小的卵,每八小时产一枚,让宿主一直处于"怀孕"状态,直到有雄性来给卵受精。受精产卵后有一段不应期,寄生虫会暂时停止产卵;时间平均约三天。新受精的卵会在受精后不久产出,视距宿主上次受精的时间长短,常常堆成非常大的一堆卵。选择与这种寄生虫共存的宿主被建议不要让不断增多的卵把自己困住。急救人员可能需要一段时间才能赶到受影响的宿主身边,届时她们的情况可能更糟,甚至危急。
2.      The ‘Green’ Female: Slightly larger and rarer than the beige female, this one is as green as the flesh of the larger worm body and covered in lighter green bumps that dot the majority of its surface. This variant of the parasite continuously lays full-sized eggs, producing one every eight hours, keeping its host in a state of ‘pregnancy’ until a male comes along to fertilize them. There is a refractory period after a fertilized laying which will temporarily cause the parasite to not lay eggs; times average at about three days. The newly fertilized eggs will be laid a short time after fertilization, often creating very large piles of eggs depending on how long it has been since the host was last fertilized. Hosts who choose to live with this type of parasite are advised not to let the growing number of eggs immobilize them. Emergency staff might take awhile to get to afflicted hosts and by then they may be in an even worse, if not critical, condition.
</div>


<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
3.  '橙色'雌体:迄今为止最稀有的雌体,体型几乎是其他变体的两倍。它们与米色雌体共享相同的配色,唯一例外是沿整个腹部延伸并一直连到身体顶部的一条大橙色条纹。它们是一种奇怪的"屁股虫",受精后只在宿主体内产下一枚卵。这枚卵要孵化好几个月,通过一场有点类似阴道分娩、却经由肛门腔完成的艰苦过程排出。这枚卵比其他肛寄生物所产的卵大得多,会一直增大,直到载体看起来严重怀孕。更奇怪的是,这枚卵会吸收宿主的遗传物质。这会根据载体整体的身体形态改变后代的体型。由此产生了双足、半人马形乃至飞行虫形等各种各样的混血体,它们的智力刚好足以表现得非常部落化。遗憾的是它们的数量极低,也没有任何它们真正建立文明的记录。这些混血体对产出更多橙色雌体至关重要,因为这一特殊雌性变体必须寄生其他 hilinara 寄生虫才能延续下去。
3.      The ‘Orange’ Female: So far the rarest of all, these females are almost double the size of the other variants. They share the same color scheme with the beige female, with the exception of a large orange stripe running all along their undersides and continuing to the top of their body. They are a strange breed of ‘butt bug’ that when fertilized only lays a single egg into their host. This egg incubates for several months, and is expelled through a labor-intensive event somewhat akin to a vaginal birth, but through the anal cavity instead. This egg is much larger than most other eggs laid by these anal parasites, increasing in size until the carrier looks severely pregnant. Even stranger is that the egg absorbs genetic material from the host. This alters the body of the offspring in accordance to the carrier’s overall body shape. This has created bipedal, tauric, and even flying insectoid hybrids of all varieties with just enough intelligence to behave in a very tribalistic manner. Unfortunately their numbers are incredibly low, and there are no recorded cases of them actually forming civilizations. These hybrids are essential for the making of more orange females, as they need to be parasitized by other hilinara parasites in order for this specific female variant to continue.

===繁殖:===
===Reproduction:===
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
Hilinara organisms cannot reproduce on their own: they require a suitable host to incubate their eggs until the female deems them suitably developed to be laid. Gestation times vary between female types but it is known that most of the females already have eggs waiting to be laid within the host when a male comes along. In order to be fertilized, a female hilinara parasite needs to be inseminated by a male through the constant insertion of the male’s phallic body into one of the female’s orifices. This process goes on until the male is stimulated enough to ejaculate his spermatozoa into the awaiting body of the female, whereupon she will, through the use of her remaining tendrils, cover every egg she has in the deposited seminal fluids. After approximately an hour of soaking her eggs in the sperm, the female lays the eggs into the intestines of the carrier. It is here that they will gestate and grow in size until ready to be laid, often bulging a host's body to the point of looking pregnant. An unwilling host will often feel discomfort at this act, as they may not want any phallic objects in their anus, let alone the parasite they are carrying. However, this will only happen if the host is subdued by the larger body of the male earlier on, so most hosts are safe from this happening to them in civilized or well travelled areas.
Hilinara 生物无法自行繁殖:它们需要一个合适的宿主来孵化卵,直到雌体认为卵发育到可以产出的程度。妊娠期因雌体类型而异,但已知大多数雌体在雄性到来时,宿主体内已经有卵等着产出了。雌性 hilinara 寄生虫要受精,就需要雄性把阴茎状的身体反复插入雌性的某个孔洞,向雌体授精。这个过程一直持续到雄性受到足够刺激,把精子射入等待中的雌体体内,随后雌体会用剩余的触手把自己所有的卵都裹上射入的精液。把卵在精液中浸泡大约一小时后,雌体把卵产进载体的肠道。卵在那里妊娠、长大,直到可以产出,常常把宿主的身体撑得看起来像怀孕了一样。不情愿的宿主常常会对这种行为感到不适,因为她们可能根本不想让任何阴茎状物体进入肛门,更别说身上还带着寄生虫了。不过,这只有在宿主早些时候被雄性的大身体制服时才会发生,所以在文明或人烟稠密的地区,大多数宿主不会遭遇这种事。
</div>


<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
卵似乎对任何胃酸都完全免疫。考虑到它们产下后不久就会孵化,它们也不需要待在松软土壤或沙地充足的环境里被照料。除绿色雌体外,所有雌体在确认有雄性屁股虫给自己授精后,都早已准备好一枚卵等着产进宿主的肠道。如果它们未受精的卵接触到任何不是雄性屁股虫的精子,它们就会诱发早产"分娩",把体内所有可用的卵都产到宿主体外,以防止遗传污染。这常常毫无征兆,也不管卵最终落在哪里。这些卵没有身体孵化、没有雌虫照料,就不会发育。
The eggs seem to be completely immune to any sort of stomach acids. They do not need to be cared for in environments where soft soil or sand is abundant considering that they hatch shortly after they are laid. With the exception of the green female, all females already have an egg prepared and ready to be laid into the gut of their host once the female has confirmed that a male butt bug has inseminated her. If their unfertilized eggs come into contact with any sperm that is not from a male butt bug, they will induce an early ‘labor’ and lay all of the available eggs they have outside the host in order to prevent genetic contamination. This is often without warning, and without a care for where they end up. These eggs will not develop with no body incubating them and no female bug to care for them.

"父母"——也就是宿主——相比,混血体的成长速度快得惊人。如前所述,橙色雌体谱系的延续需要另一只橙色寄生虫感染混血体。它们在每个繁殖周期中吸收的混血基因把不可避免的近亲损害降到最低。这种繁殖怪癖暗示它们的进化史上发生过某种遗传危机,迫使它们必须吸收其他物种的基因,否则就会基本失去生育能力。它们为什么需要这么做,或者是什么导致了这场繁殖危机,至今仍是个谜。目前唯一的线索是,它们的细胞中存在着异常高量的赛迪安 DNA。因此,异星生物学家推测,最早的基因混血体有赛迪安血统,这可能也是混血体总是比宿主物种更具虫形特征的原因。
Hybrids grow astronomically quickly when compared to their ‘parent’; with ‘parent’ being the host. As stated above, the continuation of the orange female strain requires the infection of a hybrid by another orange parasite type. The hybrid genes that they pick up in each reproduction cycle keeps the inevitable incestual damage to a minimum. This reproductive quirk hints at some genetic crisis in their evolutionary past, thus requiring them to take on genes from another species or become essentially sterile. Why they needed to do this, or what led up to this reproductive crisis is a mystery so far. The only lead so far is that there is an unusually high amount of sydian DNA located in their cells. Because of this, xenobiologists speculate that the first genetic hybrids were of sydian descent and could be why the hybrids are always more insectoid than the host species.

Almost all Hilinara organisms, hybrid or otherwise, seem to instantly be able to recognize the host who carried them while they were an egg, no matter how long a period of time has passed. Even subjects that were separated from their carrier for several years, and had never met them beforehand, seemed to know not to attack; while hybrids treat them like long lost parents the moment they sense them. Current data suggests that the carrier’s heat signature and unique chemical scent is imprinted into the brains of these creatures while they are carried, creating a permanent reminder of who they share DNA with. The most likely explanation for this is that it serves as a warning marker to prevent incestual genetic mixing. Only in the case of hybrids does this not make sense, as they are sexually sterile. However, it is entirely possible for a carrier to accidentally become the host of one of the parasites created by a hybrid they carried. Long term study has determined that this marker lasts for several generations, further providing evidence that this is to prevent against incestous genetic mixing.
几乎所有 Hilinara 生物,无论是否混血,似乎都能瞬间认出在它们还是卵时承载自己的宿主,无论过去多长时间。即使是与载体分离多年、之前从未见过面的个体,也似乎知道不要攻击;而混血体一感应到对方,就会像对待失散多年的父母一样对待他们。目前的数据表明,载体的热信号和独特的化学气味在这些生物还是卵时就被刻进了它们的大脑,留下永久的印记,提醒它们与谁共享 DNA。对此最可能的解释是:这起到警示标记的作用,防止近亲遗传混合。只有混血体的情况说不通,因为它们在性上是绝育的。然而,载体完全有可能意外成为自己携带的混血体所产寄生虫的宿主。长期研究表明,这种标记会延续好几代,进一步证明这是为了防止近亲遗传混合。

沙虫(完整共生生物):

名称(单数,较大生物):Hilinara 虫或沙虫。

名称(单数,较小寄生虫):Hilinara 寄生虫,俗称"屁股虫"。

最显著特征:一种伪共生生物,以及穴居生物。它的整个身体由一个较小的生物控制,当较大的身体受损过重,或较小生物转而寄生另一生物时,较小生物会被排出。大虫体内的肉和血都是深绿色。

性别:雄性与雌性。性别只能通过解剖或在寄生虫被排出后才能辨别。

身高,虫体:两到六英尺。

身高,寄生虫:一到六英寸,视年龄和亚种而定。

长度,虫体:两到二十米,甚至更长,取决于可用的掘洞空间。即使死后,身体大部分也不会被看到,除非被挖出来。

长度,寄生虫:六英寸到一英尺之间。亚种间会有差异。

体重,虫体:七十磅到两吨,取决于体型。

体重,寄生虫:五到十五磅,视年龄而定。亚种间会有差异。

感觉:

它们在强光下视力很弱,两个身体头部的两对分节眼睛都是近视的。两个身体的口部下侧都排布着热感应器。在寒冷的夜晚寻找足够的热量,对它们来说和其他大多数物种一样是头等大事。两个实体都对振动极其敏感,并借此在沙土、泥土、泥浆和其他它们可以安家的松散地形中探测猎物和宿主。较小的身体似乎嗅觉较弱,但能通过皮肤膜感知湿气。它们似乎偏好温暖、潮湿或湿润的区域,但可以在多种气候中生存。

移动:

与地球上的蚯蚓不无相似,这些生物通过身体蠕动来钻地、在地面上移动。然而,与地球蚯蚓不同,它们的速度足以让上方的地面失稳,有时会掀起大块泥土和岩石。有人甚至观察到它们制造流沙坑来困住目标,然后再进食或寄生。

防御:

较大身体上的特化甲板让它在以任何速度、任何力度钻地时都能毫发无损。不过身体本身相当柔软,被任何有力物体直接击中都会轻易破裂。这让有些个体在撞上地下的静止障碍物时受了伤,不过这种情况很少见,因为它们早在真正撞上之前很久就能探测到障碍。较小的身体除了逃跑/爬走或躲藏之外没有任何防御手段。它们可以使用体内自带的化学物质,但必须靠得极近才有机会命中目标。大身体对于这种体型的蠕虫状生物来说出奇地敏捷;如果在地面上,它们能闪避躲开许多袭来的攻击。

攻击:

两个身体都能合成一种多功能绿色物质。它们通过向唾液中释放一套化学物质混合物来制造这种绿色物质,它能提升荷尔蒙和敏感度水平。这种物质可以是坚硬的、粘稠的、滑溜的,或者同时具备以上所有性质,取决于当前的需要。较大的身体制造这种液体的速度远快于较小的身体,且能制造的体量也大得多。它能把这种物质浓缩成一个球,掷出去使地面上的敌人丧失行动能力。它们地下的快速移动速度使它们相对于地面上的对手占据优势,只要目标不知道如何识别它们的动静,它们就能悄悄逼近敌人。

性别二态性:

较大的身体彼此之间完全无法区分。然而,较小的身体仅凭肉眼就能清楚分辨雌雄。雄性身体的大部分是一根硕大的阴茎状突起,平时软塌塌地晃荡,靠近雌性时则会变硬。这根突起连接着一个球茎状的基部,眼睛、嘴巴和六条细腿都在上面。所有雄性都是暗黄色,形状统一。雌性与它们通常栖居的较大实体拥有同样的蠕虫状身体结构,移动方式也相同,只是慢得多。它们的身体两端各有一个外观类似肛门开口的孔洞。雌性存在大量变体,身体结构和生物机制各不相同。人形以及其他体型结构的 hilinara 生物也存在,但只能是大型雌体在合适宿主体内成功寄生并怀孕的结果。

两性都拥有神经操控器官,从主身体内部延伸出去控制较大的蠕虫状身体。就雄性而言,这些器官会在排出过程中被扯掉。而雌性则能在嵌入宿主时缩回并随后重复使用它们。这些触手储存在主身体内部,直到需要时才显露。只有少数几根触手用于"神经融合",其余的则留作可操控的触须状探测器,能够进行精细操作。

通常栖息环境:

虽然目前只在塔库斯(Tarkus)发现它们,但只要环境里有能让它们移动较大蠕虫状身体的松软泥土或沙地,它们很可能就能繁衍生息。

智力:

远未达到智慧水平,它们遵循一条主要的生物法则。它们拥有一定程度的智力,在连接到大沙虫身体的神经矩阵时智力会更高。它们似乎能对长期宿主产生感情。虫类混血体比普通沙虫聪明得多,但按照银河系标准仍被视为原始。它们的同情心似乎仅限于自己的载体或基因相似者,因此如果没有原宿主在场,它们与他人合作几乎是不可能的。如果某只雌性的后代足够多,它们可以形成类似蜂巢意识的东西,偶尔有人看到它们像蚂蚁或蜜蜂群落一样协同工作。

较大身体的构建:

通过本能地施加分泌物并调节自身荷尔蒙,它们在土壤或沙地中建造一个绿色网状的茧。这个茧在一段漫长的时间内培育它们的次级身体,在此期间它们进入休眠状态,安全地隐藏在外面。几周之后,次级身体的体积将达到建造它的昆虫的两倍,随时可以接管。寄生虫随后破开茧,从新生物头部的一道肉质缝隙滑入其中。一旦进入,它就会与刚长成的蠕虫融合,用神经触手控制较大的身体,直到找到更合适的宿主。

寄生:

如果由较小生物控制的大身体成功击败或制服了一个适合寄生的敌人,该生物就会上前,用藏在颌后的带钳肢体抓住未来的宿主。这有助于暴露即将被占据的肛门腔。一旦找到理想的孔洞,沙虫就会在宿主的腔道内分泌一种格外滑溜的分泌物。接着,它用几根长长的可缠绕舌头把液体进一步按摩进洞内。完成这一步后,舌头缩回,蠕虫把身体锁在固定位置,实际上困住了受害者。较小寄生虫最初进入时所在的大部分头部会裂开,露出寄生虫所在的神经缝,排出过程随即开始。

一旦从缝中排出、落在无法动弹的生物身上,雌性寄生虫就会把自己的锥形前端对准肛门环。这时它会用舌头状的触手强行撑开肛门,扭动着钻进去与宿主融合。雄性寄生虫会感知宿主是否已被感染:如果已感染,它会像雌性一样被排出,以便在宿主体内与雌性交配,给任何可能即将产下的卵受精。但如果它的目标体内没有雌性,它往往会借用较大的身体作为杠杆来惩罚敌人。到这个过程结束时,较大的身体通常已经干瘪到足以让被抓住的生物挣脱它那已变脆的束缚。

附着在宿主消化系统上的 Hilinara 寄生虫,既通过血液直接吸收营养获得养分,也通过吞食载体无法消化的东西获得养分。未附着宿主的 Hilinara 生物是机会主义的清道夫,什么都吃,只要比它们小、勉强能消化。在志愿者实验中那些被放入阴道腔的个体会在一段时间后营养不良。有一个样本被观察到在受试者睡觉时试图从阴道腔移到肛门。奇怪的是,受试者在寄生虫移动的过程中并没有醒来。一旦 Hilinara 寄生虫进入宿主的肛门——无论是强行爬进一个已被制服的目标那经生物润滑的肛门环,还是得到预定宿主自愿同意——雌性就开始了寄生阶段。它们用六根神经触手中的两根与载体的内部皮肉和神经融合。一旦发生这种情况,受害者就需要医疗救助才能取出。

雌性在争夺已捕获的宿主时领地意识极强,而且由于获得宿主的频率很低,它们还拥有把另一只雌性与宿主分离的酶。为了做到这一点,入侵的雌性必须和已经在里面的那只一起爬进目标的肛门。一旦到位,它就会在神经连接点释放酶,切断既有雌性与宿主的连接。随后两只雌性会在宿主体内扭打,用神经触手互相缠斗,直到分出胜负。

这个过程常常导致肛门腔神经敏感度飙升,几乎总是让能够高潮的物种持续高潮不断。对某些个体来说,高潮的强度和频率甚至几乎能把宿主逼疯。虽然对载体来说可能感觉像永恒,但大多数打斗不会超过几分钟。应当指出,某些雌性变体确实比其他变体拥有明显的生物学优势:数据表明,这是一个按下面列举顺序循环的等级体系。

一些参与自愿实验的宿主报告说,她们的寄生虫对她们的生活有着主动影响。大多数时候,寄生虫会缩回肛门深处,把自己伪装起来,让宿主向性伴侣介绍自己这位"乘客"时看起来像什么都没有。另一些时候,寄生虫会公然宣示存在:在雄性生殖器官面前刺激肛门通道,甚至拉下衣物让载体暴露。在大多数情况下,宿主会逐渐偏好肛交。许多人会对产卵阶段释放的内啡肽上瘾,开始主动寻找雄性 Hilinara 寄生虫。有些个体靠出售捕获的雄性寄生虫获利,但这项生意只在拓荒潮期间的卵癖爱好者黑市上兴隆,主要围绕塔库斯展开。

所有雌性 Hilinara 寄生虫都能扩张内部肌肉,用力撑开宿主的肛壁,实际上把自己变成生物扩张器,撑开肛门以方便卵通过。关于卵和产卵的更多细节可以在繁殖一节中找到。

以下是在近期探险中发现的已知雌性变体:

1.  '米色'雌体:这一变体是目前发现的数量最多、分布最广的类型。它们呈米色,皮肤质地相对光滑。它们在宿主体内保持生殖休眠,直到被雄性屁股虫受精,之后它们会在宿主的肠道内产下受精卵,在那里孵化一周。随着卵在妊娠中生长膨胀,常常让载体看起来像是被它们的总体积撑得怀孕了。一旦雌体认为卵已成熟,它就会迫使宿主进入一种伪分娩状态,通过自己的身体把已经长大的卵从宿主的肛门腔中产出。在产卵过程中,它们会迫使宿主的孔洞扩张到刚好够卵通过的宽度。米色雌体通常产下大约十二枚卵。

2.  '绿色'雌体:比米色雌体稍大也更稀有,通体与大蠕虫身体的肉色一样绿,表面大部分覆盖着较浅的绿色疙瘩。这一变体会持续产下完整大小的卵,每八小时产一枚,让宿主一直处于"怀孕"状态,直到有雄性来给卵受精。受精产卵后有一段不应期,寄生虫会暂时停止产卵;时间平均约三天。新受精的卵会在受精后不久产出,视距宿主上次受精的时间长短,常常堆成非常大的一堆卵。选择与这种寄生虫共存的宿主被建议不要让不断增多的卵把自己困住。急救人员可能需要一段时间才能赶到受影响的宿主身边,届时她们的情况可能更糟,甚至危急。

3.  '橙色'雌体:迄今为止最稀有的雌体,体型几乎是其他变体的两倍。它们与米色雌体共享相同的配色,唯一例外是沿整个腹部延伸并一直连到身体顶部的一条大橙色条纹。它们是一种奇怪的"屁股虫",受精后只在宿主体内产下一枚卵。这枚卵要孵化好几个月,通过一场有点类似阴道分娩、却经由肛门腔完成的艰苦过程排出。这枚卵比其他肛寄生物所产的卵大得多,会一直增大,直到载体看起来严重怀孕。更奇怪的是,这枚卵会吸收宿主的遗传物质。这会根据载体整体的身体形态改变后代的体型。由此产生了双足、半人马形乃至飞行虫形等各种各样的混血体,它们的智力刚好足以表现得非常部落化。遗憾的是它们的数量极低,也没有任何它们真正建立文明的记录。这些混血体对产出更多橙色雌体至关重要,因为这一特殊雌性变体必须寄生其他 hilinara 寄生虫才能延续下去。

可能还存在其他未被发现的变体。

繁殖:

Hilinara 生物无法自行繁殖:它们需要一个合适的宿主来孵化卵,直到雌体认为卵发育到可以产出的程度。妊娠期因雌体类型而异,但已知大多数雌体在雄性到来时,宿主体内已经有卵等着产出了。雌性 hilinara 寄生虫要受精,就需要雄性把阴茎状的身体反复插入雌性的某个孔洞,向雌体授精。这个过程一直持续到雄性受到足够刺激,把精子射入等待中的雌体体内,随后雌体会用剩余的触手把自己所有的卵都裹上射入的精液。把卵在精液中浸泡大约一小时后,雌体把卵产进载体的肠道。卵在那里妊娠、长大,直到可以产出,常常把宿主的身体撑得看起来像怀孕了一样。不情愿的宿主常常会对这种行为感到不适,因为她们可能根本不想让任何阴茎状物体进入肛门,更别说身上还带着寄生虫了。不过,这只有在宿主早些时候被雄性的大身体制服时才会发生,所以在文明或人烟稠密的地区,大多数宿主不会遭遇这种事。

卵似乎对任何胃酸都完全免疫。考虑到它们产下后不久就会孵化,它们也不需要待在松软土壤或沙地充足的环境里被照料。除绿色雌体外,所有雌体在确认有雄性屁股虫给自己授精后,都早已准备好一枚卵等着产进宿主的肠道。如果它们未受精的卵接触到任何不是雄性屁股虫的精子,它们就会诱发早产"分娩",把体内所有可用的卵都产到宿主体外,以防止遗传污染。这常常毫无征兆,也不管卵最终落在哪里。这些卵没有身体孵化、没有雌虫照料,就不会发育。

与"父母"——也就是宿主——相比,混血体的成长速度快得惊人。如前所述,橙色雌体谱系的延续需要另一只橙色寄生虫感染混血体。它们在每个繁殖周期中吸收的混血基因把不可避免的近亲损害降到最低。这种繁殖怪癖暗示它们的进化史上发生过某种遗传危机,迫使它们必须吸收其他物种的基因,否则就会基本失去生育能力。它们为什么需要这么做,或者是什么导致了这场繁殖危机,至今仍是个谜。目前唯一的线索是,它们的细胞中存在着异常高量的赛迪安 DNA。因此,异星生物学家推测,最早的基因混血体有赛迪安血统,这可能也是混血体总是比宿主物种更具虫形特征的原因。
