Well, I can't blame the alien for having such an exposed brain; if you're going to be playing with that much electricity, you're going to have most of the heat build up in your head. I'm guessing these 'hot heads' leave their brains open to the air as a means of a cooling system. If the creature had its brain in a more enclosed space such as humans do, after a few minutes of spewing out electricity waves (or whatever they are :3 ) it would probably suffer a massive and painful headache.

They also sport a type of 'jester's shoe' of a foot; electrical energy (that's what I'm calling it from now on) builds up in the forward calf muscles as the hot head runs, and when this reaches a critical level, the electricity is discharged onto the 'tips' of the jester's shoe where it can simply be 'flicked' by the toes onto encroaching predators, (or human soldiers O_o) zapping their legs and rendering them immobile.

Kinda having fun doing these little 'describe how the creature works by looking at it' things. Mind if I do a few more? You're free to use them (or put them into your own words) in the description if you feel they give the creature a bit more background.

I can't get enough of them either. o_o

The upward-turned toes, the face texture and the fact that I'm getting "that feeling".... you know... that feeling that a small animal is about to be turned inside-out. All of these things help make this thing freaking cool.

I get the feeling this won't end well for the squirrel

well from looking at the guy, I'd say microwaving the squirrel isn't out of the realm of possibilities.
