Xρόα represents an organism with an iron interior covered in dychroic film (dychroic:from Greek δις: double; χροιά: skin/colour/membrane). This material consists of verythin layers of metal oxides that are not painted afterwards. This causes the material notto absorb visible light which strikes the surface. Therefore, it has a double property, onepart of the lit mirror is reflected while another part is transmitted.
