===Cleaner Tick===

Evolving from groups of Snow Ticks whose usual lifestyle was impeded by Bloodsucker Lichen covering their host, these herbivorous insectoids adapted to a drastically different niche.

They use their strong punchers to peel Lichen off from the skin of their hosts, feeding upon it while keeping the host healthy. They are welcomed by most animals on Fortune, and will occasionally gang up and fight off other tick species from their hosts.

They typically get attached to one host and may spend multiple generations on just one creature, slowing the advance of Bloodsucker Lichen heavily, but never outright stopping it. If their host fell to a predator, they will attempt to spread to said predator, otherwise they will spread out, looking for the nearest creature to attach to. They use their wings in order to keep up with a host, including the occasional blimpie. They favour furred hosts, as they will often lay their eggs in the fur, using the host's warmth to incubate them. Cleaner Ticks are a dark green, being visible on the hides of most animals, scaring away other parasites.
