Stat me.This is now a 'monster art that can actually give people heart attacks IRL' thread.

Oh shit, son, that's that Chernobyl mutant flesh amalgamation thing. I found that fucking years ago and have never been able to find it since. Can I get some sauce on that shit, nigga?

Well the artist is Keith Thompson, same guy who drew for the Leviathan dieselpunk books

Just go to his site - most of his drawings (the personal ones, at least) have lore attached to them - and pretty good stuff, too.

Love the biohorror thing we got going on here.
Go read this great little interlude of a scarily adaptable flesh monster's short miserable life.

Try appliying stats to it if you dare. (Pic unrelated)
The scariness of body horror monsters is slightly offset by the fact that the first thing most of them would realistically do is fall over into an immobile pile of flailing shit.

Well thats half the spook factor- that flailing pile of teeth and claws is flailing straight at you at an alarning speed.

I'm not sure 'Immobile' is a particularly alarming speed
I guess I just prefer monsters like RE2 Birkin than the sort of fantasy Hell monsters like OP.
Something that at least looks like their muscles are connected to a bone that will in some way move them forward, rather than a sack of cow legs that always, inexplicably, seems to have found a way to tear some guy in half.

>All five of the organs are soon removed. Many resources have been wasted, but this creature can write the learned detail to its bones, through structural chains built on a sub-cellular level. Crude, but placement, composition and general purpose can be transcribed.
>Further experimentation lets this creature place and hide its cognitive organs within itself, as ribbon-like striations between organs and along the skeletal lace.
>This creature ate the wire, and muscle action worked to drag the wire to where it might be useful, joining the small fragments of metal in encasing the most important parts of this creature’s body.
Jesus Christ this is probobly the most amazing depiction of a creature using adaptive biology that I have ever read.
