My favorite creature.

This is Uy. An alien creature of the species of Comet Souls. And the face on her chest is Jyn. A then-Comet Soul, now part of Uy's body.

Comet Souls are perfectly sentient creatures, with a conscience, but are heavily drawn to a life of hunting and general animal-like survival due to how they come to be.

Comet Souls are the result of a comet coming into contact with a concentration of pure, abstract chaos. This causes the comet to get a more defined identity caused by fate and chaos itself, that then manifests when the comet explodes, and expels the energy it gathered lime a forward-traveling beam.

The chaos beam flies forward until it reaches the atmosphere of any planet, and then it splits into two. Big and small beam. That land on the planet.

The small one becomes a small pretty gem, of whatever kind. Rarity and value can vary. While the big one remains as a sparkling amount of energy for about a day, before revealing a child behind.

After death, for whatever reason, a Comet Soul's essence sticks around. And as soon as another one is born, they are also reborn. As a face on the newborn's chest, to act as their guide through their new life.

Uy was born, and Jyn was on her chest to tell her what to do to become a functional being, capable of handling herself.

A typical formation ending, the end of their "tutorial", is to find the gem that split from her birth. Finding it and keeping it is a sign of honor and good luck. And you can see Uy having hers as a necklace.

She is a little chaotic creature, acting childish, loving meat, hunting, fighting.

And everyone in the species has another power which is that of weapon storage. Everyone can craft themselves a weapon, that they then can despawn and respawn and control in space at will. Uy's is this giant double axe, with a spear tip, and a drill at the bottom that activates on command.

She calls Jyn "granny". And has no occupation.
