Clotho languages are entirely visual, an evolution of webs spun by their ancestors to attract mates, mark territory and catch food. Luminescent threads are extruded from glands in their mouths and woven into complex patterns by their delicate claws. Males and females secrete different colors, the hue of which can be further altered by saliva, and these are combined into the complex glyphs which make up the racc's language.

This race is primarily located in the following areas: <br>
 
+
''[[Charted Space]]:''
Glyphs are usually drawn on surfaces or spun between trees or structures (some Imperials have jokingly referred to this as "graffiti"): seeing these scattered around a neighborhood in a Zhodani starport is one sign that Clotho are on the world.
+
* [[Tienspevnekr Sector]]
 
+
** [[Abrr Subsector]]
A Clotho conversation is a beautiful thing, combining elements of both dance and calligraphy, and unlike Human words, is preserved until the glyphs dry and fade, which occurs after a few hours of sunlight. A single word concept is typically 4" across: a sentence usually spans a foot or so. Communication is slower than Human speech. (approximately one sentence every 10 seconds) and requires a good deal more space, but is in some ways more precise.

*** 10-world [[Addaxur Reserve]]  
 
 
Printed representations of glyphs form a written language. Clotho have supplemented their glyphs with a well-developed sign language used for rapid communication. With four limbs it is somewhat more expressive than human sign language but cannot match the complex symbology that is conveyed with glyphs. Clotho have also mastered human sign languages. Some Clotho have learned to understand spoken languages, but all find them very difficult.
