A heraldic beetle forged in damascus steel, its marbled carapace and lens plates unchanging, wearing five leg pairs that each change species on their own schedule. Each leg is one primitive under seven interpolated numbers, so it morphs by deforming, not cross-fading, through four forms: armour plate, segmented leg, barbed claw, wire feeler. Bass armours the legs, treble strips them to feelers, and the change sweeps head to tail one pair at a time. Rests as the segmented leg.
