Scree

Current status: Monstrous.
Wearing a forest-green leather collar with conical brass studs and a nameplate, reading 'Luna's Guard-Monster'.

P&P / nompost note:
While I might seem open to a lot of stuff in public, a lot of the more exotic stuff is generally reserved to people I'm already comfortable doing it with. If you're not sure, ask - or just stick to vanilla swallowing in the nompost itself and leave any future developments along those lines as an option and allow a chance to respond.

More complete picture here.

Scree is a curious mix. In terms of body shape, the creature is vaguely anthropomorphic, standing a little bit shy of five feet tall, but has a series of stubbier little arms running down its sides. It has a sort of insectoid quality about it, but seems to have several features from other animals - including feathers along its chest and back, a mop of hair on its head, a long fluffy tail, and a pair of ears that look like a mix between those of a fox and a cat. As if this didn't make him look strange enough, he seems to have several bioluminescent patches, most notably on the tips of his ears, his tail, and the pom-pom that dangles from the top of his head, which vary in brightness from nothing at all up until being bright enough to read by.
Anyone touching him or looking closely enough will note that he isn't a vertebrate in the traditional sense - instead, his body structure comes from a number of rigid plates like an insect's exoskeleton, covered over with a thin layer of skin. As a result, causing anything more than superficial damage takes a bit more effort than it would with most.




== Scree's Salvage Service ==

Recently, Scree's decided to capitalise on the fact that he's practically impossible to digest by going into business. How, you might ask? Well, he's aware that other predatory critters often wind up with indigestible junk clogging up their stomachs, and depending on who they eat, that junk might just be worth something! As such, he'll go in and fetch it out for a small fee (or simply salvage rights, he's not fussy!) on the proviso that the customer agrees to let him out again...

Issa monster!

Yep, definitely a monster.

That's not to say he's not edible though.

There's just a decent chance he'll get you first.

... possibly not in the nicest of ways. (HV)

In fact, sometimes in the worst ways. (seriously HV)

He just gets a little... cocky sometimes.

Or doesn't pay enough attention to things bigger than him.

Or things smaller than him, for that matter.

Just be sure not to give him coffee.

Originally, Scree was something of an experimental character, as I had honestly no idea what way it would go - simply put, he assimilates genetic material from whatever other sources it comes across and adopts the useful parts into its own form. With the help of the park's residents, he's grown from a little caterpillarthing into the adorable munchmonster we all love today!


Vore-wise, at present his odd physical structure allows him to eat things slightly larger than him, and more recently he has adapted himself so doing do isn't as arduous as it was previously, though in most cases he still has to restrain anything of any decent size - luckily, since he's got a rather handy tongue and can produce large quantities of silk as a result of his insectoid heritage, the latter point can become moot if he gets the drop on someone or if they should stumble across one of his webs.
Even worse, he's managed to get his jaws around a psychic creature. Unfortunately for him he has little control over his abilities so far, though thanks to a charm Aisu made for him he no longer suffers from migraines as a result of hearing the thoughts of everyone around him all at once.


He's also been collecting a few things that he really couldn't get outside the park - thanks to his "encounters" with the various pokemon that inhabit the place, he's getting quite handy when it comes to flinging electricity around. Not only that, some of the other inhabitants have seen fit to kit him out with a few trinkets, most notably a amulet from Vairune that allows him to reform, and a wand from Kami that lets him render people unconscious though otherwise unharmed through the medium of stabbing.

More recently, Kami's given him some fairly hardcore magical protection - acids and other such digestive juices have no effect on him at all. As for physical damage, any injuries he suffers (assuming they even get past his carapace) cause the affected area to transmute into a putty-like state until he can mould it back to how it should be. He's not really used to this, however, and a thwack to the head with a blunt instrument will stun him like anyone else.

In short, anyone eating him may find they have a rather unpleasant passenger on their hands. That said, he's kinda mellowed out to the concept of being eaten recently, so as long as you're not mean about it (mean being relative for someone who can life through being squashed flat) he'll usually chalk it up to experience and not try anything too nasty in order to get out.
