Chiquita:
A banana-type life form. On our Earth, this brand of banana is soft,
tasty, and most importantly, not sentient. This world's version is
slightly more murderous. They have no limbs, and move by rolling. They
can coil and spring at prey as it passes, though they only do so in
desperate situations. These things seem to be scavengers for the most
part. They have large eyes and sharp stems, which can be used in
combat. I saw some with eye patches, though I have no idea who put them
on the things. Some local kid's idea of a prank?
Kitty: The cats of this world
are not as long and noble as our Earth's. These ones have perfect
spheres for bodies, tiny feet, and no limbs. As far as physique goes,
they have more in common with rubber balls than felines, but their
faces are definitely all cat. Cunning animals, these ones, and
dangerous in packs.
Prairie Dog: I'm used to
prairie dogs being skittish creatures that mostly avoid two-legged
goliaths such as myself, but this world's are quite the opposite! They
have developed, or stolen, all sorts of firearms and use them to rob
travelers in desert areas. These guys are vicious. They often wear
bandanas over their faces to hide their identities, but since they all
look alike to me I don't really see the point.
Peep: Now this is just getting
ridiculous. It seems everything I run into is similar to something on
my world, only OUT FOR BLOOD. I mean, Peeps! The small, sugar-based
chicken candies that taste best stale! These guys are exactly the same,
except gigantic and alive. I've seen one injured, and they are indeed
stuffed with sugar and not blood. One of these could feed a whole
family for a week, but it wouldn't be nutritious at all.
Henway: At last, something
completely unexpected. Henways are some sort of rooster-like
poltergeist. Their bodies are shaped like the ghosts of the Pac World,
but they have the strong, manly legs of an Earth rooster, as well as
the beak and gross head thing. Their eyes are the worst part; Totally
empty! Staring into this is akin to staring into a bottomless pit. It
froze my heart and made me feel desperate to run away. I would not want
to encounter one of these beasts at night.
Fruit Bat: Another delicious
looking monster. Though it shares a name with an Earth animal, it is
quite unique. The body appears to be an apple, but it has wings and
feet.The wings can be tucked away behind the body, making the creature
look exactly like an innocent fruit, likely to lure in prey. Similar to
Walthros' Frungus. Deceptive, clever creatures.
Sand Shark: Holy God! I was
following Mr. Penguin through the desert and one of these erupted out
of the sand! As the name implies, they are sharks that live in sand.
They can burrow at high speeds, and rip the land apart as they explode
from its crust. The way they move implies that their mobility comes
from more than just fins and a tail. I believe their bellies may be
covered in hundreds of tiny, powerful legs. Absolutely terrifying.
DragonCow: Another literally
named monster, another absolute terror. The front half of its body is
that of the peaceful and noble bovine, and the back half is a scaled
horror with wings the size of its body. It emits loud, barking honks to
paralyze its prey and communicate with others of its kind. They fly
slowly, but the mere sight of one of these things airborne is enough to
make you fall down and pray for salvation. Thankfully, there are normal
cows in this world as well. I'd hate to have to drink the milk of this
thing.
Barney: On Earth, Barney is a
slow-witted, fairly harmless Tyrannosaurus whose teeth were kept filed
down so that he could be used as a play-thing for children. In this
universe, he has no handlers to tame him, and he has become a tyrant.
His mind and his teeth are both razor sharp, and he carries a powerful
pitchfork used to skewer multiple enemies at once. He seems to have
taken up the throne of the underworld, and is a foe that inspires shock
and awe.

If good natured Barney could be such a horrifying beast
in this universe, I shudder to think of what the rest of our Earth's
celebrities may be like here. Grimace save us all if they're as
frightful as this one. |

That's all for this month. My mind's feeling a bit...
melted. I think I might spend the next month in recovery somewhere nice
and safe. Until next time, you kings of the internet! |
