Taxxon

Taxxons are big ugly cannibalistic centipede-things that hail from the planet Taxxos. They serve as the Yeerks' dutiful slaves. Though the Taxxons have always been dangerous, they have become doubly so ever since Visser Three managed to duplicate the Andalites' morphing technology. His Taxxon troops are now endowed with the ability to assume the form of ferocious alien creature from a distant planet.
