Icy Jellyfish are a species of jellyfish endemic to the ice planet of Hoth.
Behavior[]
Icy Jellyfish spend their lives buried in the snow drifts on the planet's surface or dwelling in underground cavern systems. They are defensive in nature and should a larger creature make them feel threatened they will leap into the air and hover there, possibly through a lighter-than-air gas system such as helium. They will not pursue their potential foe but instead will hold their ground.
