These incredible fast and enduring runners roam the seemingly endless plains of Kastrill hunting and foraging for prey and food.

The main prey are the almost eqally fast Tento Runners, but Octos are also foraging for Dust Plllows , a fungus unique to Kastrill.

Colonists of Kastrill have attempted to corall and ride Octowalkers, ( Ranger Baker was the first successfully doing so)

The Kastrill Rodeo is only about 20 years old and is developing to a welll liked show on GalNet.

In 5010 the first Octowalker race was held ( 120 mile race across the Molgor plains from Kastrill Down to Bergdorf's Ranch with prize money of 1 million credits. While one contestant broke his neck and several suffered injuries, the race was considered a big success and the race in 5011 had a top prize of 5 milion credits and the race was watched by 20 billion across the Union.

Octowalkers are hard  to tame and have a vicious and agressive temper. The riders are considered death defying dare devils.
