CRYPTID

BASIC INFO

???

MANDATORY CHANGES

● Glowing eyes.

● A fully prehensile tail. May have a hand-like appendage on the end.

● Fur on any part of the body.

● Bigger feet.

● Antlers or antennae. The size and shape is irrelevant, so long as there is some appendage on top of their head.

● Blinking. Cryptids have the ability to disappear/teleport a short distance away when someone looks away or blinks.

● Inability to show up in detail on camera or film. They may instead be seen as hazy blurs or shadows.

● A shy or reserved nature.

● A weakness to being perceived. Cryptids are 'camera' shy and hate feeling like the center of attention. They prefer to sneak up on people, even just to talk. The longer the focus is on them, the weaker they feel.

● Hunger to be forgotten. Cryptids feed on the memories of those that see them. This is accomplished by sneaking up behind their target and grabbing their head. If it's for a quick snack, they can eat only a few memories, but hungry Cryptids can take a person's whole life, leaving them with total amnesia.

OPTIONAL CHANGES

● Any psychological changes are welcome! Feel free to pull from real world myths, canon creatures of this variety, or any other source!

● A fog form. This is an exaggerated version of their monster form that appears only during the fog and is a chance to make your monster more "horrifying" during the fog.

● Travel form: the ability to take the form of a chupacabra at any time. In this form the character will be able to travel faster, however, they will also be more vulnerable.

● Moth-like wings capable of flight.

● Claws instead of nails.

● The Cryptid may have the ability to see a memory of their choice after they've fed.

● A hatred for picnics and campers.

● A desire to watch/stalk others.
